For the new Magnum and Steiger series tractors, Case IH is building upon its customers’ expectations for power and performance while meeting stricter government regulations on engine emissions.
Both series are powered by Fiat Powertrain Technologies engines with the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. All Case IH equipment greater than 100 hp will use the SCR system to meet interim Tier 4 standards that take effect January 2011. All Magnum and Steiger models are equipped with Diesel Saver Automatic Productivity Management, which selects the most fuel-efficient gear ratio and engine speed combination.
The nine Magnum series models range from 150 PTO hp to 280 PTO hp. The 180, 190, 210 and 225 tractors are powered by 6.7-liter engines, and the 235, 260, 290, 315 and 340 are powered by 8.7-liter engines featuring up to 14% power growth and Power Boost for mobile PTO and hydraulic applications. Paired with the increased power is a redesigned cooling package that separates three of the four cooling units for less demand on the tractor. The 19F/4R full powershift standard transmission has a 19th economy gear. Transmission options include a 30-mph top-speed package, 18F/4R full powershift transmission and a 23F/4R creeper transmission.
