Model 610
Equipment Type Agricultural Crawler Tractors
Factory Churubusco, Indiana, USA

ENGINES OVERVIEW

The J.I. Case 610 tractor is available with a Continental 3.4L 4-cylinder diesel engine or a Continental 3.4L 6-cylinder gasoline engine, offering flexibility in fuel choice. The diesel variant generally provides better torque and fuel efficiency, making it more suitable for heavy-duty applications, while the gasoline engine may offer easier starting and maintenance for lighter work. However, the differential in power output and operational costs should be considered based on the specific agricultural tasks or terrain requirements.

ENGINE DETAIL 1

The J.I. Case 610 tractor is powered by a Continental ED-208 diesel engine, featuring a 3.4L displacement that delivers 62 hp at a rated RPM of 2250. With a compression ratio of 15:1 and torque of 155 lb-ft at 1400 RPM, it offers robust low-end power ideal for heavy-duty applications. Advantages include an oil bath air cleaner for enhanced filtration in dusty environments; however, the engine's relatively high compression may require careful maintenance to prevent knocking.

ENGINE DETAIL 2

The J.I. Case 610 tractor is powered by a Continental F-209 gasoline engine with a displacement of 3.4L, delivering 164 lb-ft of torque at 1,000 RPM, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks requiring reliable low-end power. Its 6.4:1 compression ratio contributes to efficient combustion, but the lower rating of 2,250 RPM may limit high-speed applications. Overall, the electric starter and simpler 6-volt electrical system facilitate ease of use, although adaptability for modern 12-volt accessories could be a challenge.

J.I. CASE 610 ENGINES

The J.I. Case 610 tractor features a Continental 3.4L diesel engine or an alternative 3.4L gasoline engine option, providing versatility depending on fuel availability and operational requirements. The diesel variant typically offers better fuel efficiency, higher torque output for heavy-duty tasks, and longer service intervals, making it advantageous for prolonged agricultural use. However, the gasoline engine might provide superior initial performance and lower acquisition costs, which can be beneficial in lighter-duty applications or for users prioritizing ease of maintenance over fuel economy.

TRANSMISSION

The J.I. Case 610 tractor features a Terramatic power shift transmission, providing smooth gear transitions and enhanced operational efficiency. With 4 forward and reverse gears, it offers adequate versatility for varied farming applications, though limited gear options may restrict performance in highly variable terrain. The hydraulic disc clutch ensures reliable engagement, but can become a maintenance consideration under heavy usage.

J.I. CASE 610 TRANSMISSION

The J.I. Case 610 tractor features a 4-speed power shift transmission, allowing for seamless gear transitions under load, enhancing productivity during field operations. This transmission type offers efficient power transfer and improved fuel efficiency but may require more maintenance compared to traditional gear systems. Ideal for tasks demanding quick speed adjustments, the power shift enhances the tractor's versatility in both agricultural and utility applications.

MECHANICAL

The J.I. Case 610 tractor features a crawler drive system, which provides superior traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it ideal for agricultural tasks and construction. Its hydraulic shoe brakes enhance stopping power and control, though maintenance can be more complex compared to conventional braking systems. The open operator station offers good visibility and comfort, but may expose the operator to environmental conditions.
