Case IH’s new seven-strong offering of Farmall A tractors will make their UK debut this summer. The range extends from the 55hp Farmall 55A to the 115hp Farmall 115A tractor.
The Farmall 55A is a new 55hp single-specification, open-station tractor. The standard specification is an 8F/8R synchro transmission with left-hand mechanical shuttle enabling quick and easy direction changes. Standard equipment also includes one rear double-acting remote valve and 540rpm PTO.
While these tractors are designed primarily for working in and around yards and livestock buildings, the rugged and robust construction also makes the tractor very capable in a support role in many other environments.
Available in either Two- or four-wheel drive they are equipped with an easy-access, spacious and comfortable operator’s platform. Folding roll-over protection is also part of the standard equipment, but when folded this allows the tractor to access areas with a door height of just 2m.
The rest of the Farmall A, which supersedes the JX range, brings new features, an increase in power, two additional higher-powered models and a new ergonomically designed cab. These six new models are all available in four-wheel drive.

Standard specification on Farmall 65A, 75A, 85A, 95A is a 12F/12R mechanical shuttle, while the Farmall 105A and 115A benefit from a 12F/12R power shuttle. The power shuttle is also available as an option on Farmall 85A and 95A. Maximum rear-lift capacity is an impressive 3,565kg and up to three rear remote valves can be specified.
Internally the ergonomics of the cab have been given a complete overhaul with remote valve levers, hand throttle and rear three-point hitch control relocated to improve the simplicity of operation. The heating and ventilation unit is now relocated to the rear of the cab to improve the feeling of spaciousness and enable a high-visibility panel to be incorporated into the roof. The optional high-visibility panel will be especially useful for front loader operations enabling drivers to keep the loader in view when stacking bales or operating in low-roof buildings.
The Case IH Farmall A cab has been overhauled ergonomically from the previous JX Series. |
The Farmall 65A and 75A are ideally suited to perform support roles on large livestock units, whether operating yard scrapers or powering straw choppers. The Farmall 85A and 95A combine power with economy and make ideal loader tractors, while the extra power available from the Farmall 105A and 115A makes these tractors ideally suited for higher PTO power tasks like operating diet feeder wagons.
Outside of the farmyard these tractors will play an important role in transport, slurry/manure spreading, fertiliser application, silage making and a variety of other field operations.
