ENGINE DETAIL

The J.I. Case CC tractor features a reliable 4-cylinder gasoline engine with notable displacement of 259.5 ci (4.3L), providing ample torque at a low rated RPM of 1100, which is ideal for heavy-duty applications such as plowing and hauling. The 4.88:1 compression ratio ensures efficient power output, but may limit performance under high-load scenarios; thus, it may be more suited for moderate agricultural tasks rather than high-speed operations. The liquid cooling system, with a capacity of 20 quarts, helps maintain optimal engine temperature, emphasizing durability and reducing overheating risks during extended use.

J.I. CASE CC ENGINE

The J.I. Case CC tractor features a 4.3L 4-cylinder gasoline engine, which provides a balance of power and efficiency for light to moderate farming tasks. With an 18-gallon fuel tank and an auxiliary 2-gallon reserve, it offers extended operational range, suitable for larger plots or longer working hours without frequent refueling. However, the reliance on gasoline may limit its efficiency compared to modern diesel alternatives, potentially increasing operational costs in heavy-duty applications.

TRANSMISSION

The J.I. Case CC tractor features a basic gear transmission with 3 forward and 1 reverse gear, enabling straightforward operation for light agricultural tasks. The mechanical wet disc clutch offers smooth engagement, enhancing durability and reducing wear compared to traditional dry clutches, making it advantageous for prolonged usage. However, this simpler gear setup may limit versatility in more demanding applications, where a broader range of gear ratios would provide better adaptability.

MECHANICAL

The J.I. Case CC tractor offers a 4x2 2WD configuration, providing adequate traction for light agricultural tasks but limited performance in muddy or uneven terrain. Its manual steering enhances operator control, though it may require more physical effort in tight maneuvering situations. The 3-speed transmission allows for straightforward speed adjustments, making it suitable for simple farming operations, but lacks the versatility of multi-speed or powershift transmissions for varied applications.

J.I. CASE CC TIRES

The J.I. Case CC tractor features a robust ag front tire size of 25x4 inches and an impressive ag rear tire size of 48x8 inches, providing enhanced traction and stability for various agricultural tasks. The larger rear tires are particularly advantageous for distributing weight and reducing soil compaction, which can improve crop yield in sensitive soils. However, the steel construction of both tire sets may result in increased weight, potentially impacting maneuverability and causing wear on softer surfaces.
