ENGINE DETAIL
The J.I. Case 600 tractor features a robust 6-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine with a displacement of 377ci (6.2L), offering substantial torque at a rated RPM of 1500, ideal for heavy-duty applications. Its 4.00x5.00 inch bore and stroke dimensions suggest high power potential, but the oil bath air cleaner may require more maintenance compared to dry filters, especially in dusty environments. The electric starter provides convenience; however, operators should ensure the battery is sufficiently charged for reliable starting performance in colder conditions.

DIMENSIONS
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The J.I. Case 600 tractor, with a weight of 7,500 lbs (3,402 kg), is well-suited for medium-duty agricultural tasks, providing stability while engaging in field operations. This weight allows for effective traction without excessive soil compaction, making it advantageous for versatile applications. However, lighter implements may require additional ballast for optimal performance, especially in hilly terrains or during heavy tillage.
