ENGINE DETAIL
The J.I. Case 2294 tractor features a robust 8.3L turbocharged 6-cylinder diesel engine, delivering 154hp at a rated RPM of 2100, making it suitable for heavy field operations and agricultural tasks. The high compression ratio of 15.8:1 enhances fuel efficiency and performance, though it may require higher-grade diesel. Key considerations include its substantial oil (24qts) and coolant (38qts) capacities, which facilitate prolonged use under demanding conditions, but necessitate regular monitoring to prevent overheating and ensure optimal engine longevity.

J.I. CASE 2294 ENGINE
The J.I. Case 2294 is powered by an 8.3L 6-cylinder diesel engine, offering robust torque for demanding agricultural tasks. Its high displacement provides excellent fuel efficiency and performance, although it may lead to higher operational costs due to maintenance of its larger engine size. Consider this model for heavy-duty applications, but weigh the pros of power against potential cons like increased wear on components and fuel consumption.

TRANSMISSION
The J.I. Case 2294 tractor features a three-speed power shift transmission with a total of 12 forward and 3 reverse gears, providing versatile speed control for various agricultural tasks. Notably, while it boasts a robust oil capacity of 100 quarts (94.6L) for optimal hydraulic performance, the limitation of reverse operation only in the first three ranges may hinder maneuverability in certain scenarios, such as tight spaces. Operators should consider the power-shift's efficiency in changing gears under load, which enhances productivity but requires familiarity to maximize its potential.
| Type | three-speed power shift |
| Gears | 12 forward and 3 reverse |
| Oil capacity | 100qts / 94.6L |
| Description | Three power-shift gears (1-3), plus reverse, in four ranges (1-4). Reverse does not function in fourth range |

MECHANICAL
The J.I. Case 2294 tractor features a robust 4x2 chassis with optional 4WD, offering versatility in various terrains. Its power steering allows for increased maneuverability, while the differential hydraulic wet disc brakes provide reliable stopping under load, which is crucial for safety during heavy operations. The optional Silent Guardian cab with air-conditioning enhances operator comfort significantly, making it suitable for long hours in the field, though the initial investment may be higher.
