Case IH 7240 Combine Parts

7240 parts and accessories

The Case IH 7240 combine, produced from 2012-2019, is a powerful machine designed for high-capacity harvesting. Boasting a peak horsepower of around 480, and available with header widths up to 40 feet, the 7240 quickly became a favorite among farmers needing impressive throughput. Its proven Axial-Flow rotary system contributes to its excellent grain quality and reduced losses.

The Case IH 7240 was introduced as part of the Axial-Flow 20 series combines, building upon the legacy of previous models while incorporating several advancements. It was manufactured from 2012 to 2019. Powering this machine is a Case IH FPT engine, specifically the 8.7L Tier 4A/B diesel engine, delivering a rated horsepower of 435 and peaking around 480 HP. The heart of the 7240 is its single Axial-Flow rotary separator, optimized for efficient threshing and separation across a variety of crops. The grain tank holds approximately 350 bushels, and it features a high-capacity unloading auger with a rate of around 4.5 bushels per second (270 bu/min). Header widths ranged from 30 to 40 feet depending on the crop and customer preference. Chopper and spreader options were available to manage residue effectively. The cab is designed for operator comfort and includes advanced monitoring systems, adjustable controls, and comfortable seating. The 7240 excels at harvesting corn, soybeans, wheat, and other small grains, making it a versatile choice for diverse farming operations.

Maintenance Tips

  • Concave Adjustment: Regularly inspect and adjust the concave clearance based on the crop being harvested. Proper concave settings are crucial for optimal threshing and minimizing grain damage.
  • Belt and Chain Tension: Routinely check and maintain proper tension on all belts and chains. Loose belts and chains can lead to reduced performance, increased wear, and potential breakdowns.
  • Sieve and Chaffer Cleaning: Clean the sieves and chaffers regularly to prevent plugging and ensure efficient grain cleaning. Debris buildup can reduce separation efficiency and increase grain loss.
  • Bearing Greasing: Follow the manufacturer's recommended greasing schedule for all bearings. Proper lubrication extends bearing life and prevents premature failure.
