Case IH has introduced five new Maxxum models with a bold new appearance at the 2015 Cattle Industry Convention at San Antonio, Texas.
With a redesigned hood and roof, the new Maxxums are the first tractors to feature updated, dramatic new styling that’s going to be introduced to all Case IH’s high-horsepower tractor families, but the improvements extend well beyond cosmetics.
“The Maxxum tractor series are exceptional tractors now made even better,” Case IH marketing manager Dave Bogan said. “The new line encompasses product features that help livestock operators and specialty farmers achieve financial success and production efficiency.”
The new model line-up consists of the four-cylinder 115, 125, 135 and 145 models in the Maxxum, Maxxum MultiController and CVT configurations. Also available is the six-cylinder Maxxum 150 model available in Maxxum and Maxxum MultiController versions.
The new Maxxum series features an improved performance cooling package. They’re also equipped with fuel efficient US Tier 4 Final (EU Stage IV) SCR-only technology that meets current emissions standards with less complexity and components than other emission systems used in the industry. This allows Case IH engines to run cleaner and cooler, which has doubled the service interval hours.
Some jobs need to be done outside of daylight hours, and these new Maxxum tractors are equipped with eight high-power LED lights and can be ordered with additional LED lights – up to 14 – that provide daylight visibility during nighttime operations. This helps keep projects on schedule with less operator fatigue.
The new Maxxum tractors feature an improved turning radius on a longer wheelbase for greater stability in the field. Operators can easily navigate tight turns in the field and manoeuver in tight barns at feeding time. This gives the operator the best of both worlds.
The tractors also offers continuously variable transmission (CVT) technology with a double-clutch design that allows smooth shifting and maintains continuous power to the ground. Coupled with the Case IH Multi-Control Armrest, these Case IH machines provide ease of operation that is hard to match in the tractor industry. The optional front axle suspension is now equipped with twin accumulators, which improve the ride, comfort and safety of these machines.
