With a PTO horsepower rating around 75, the 3088 efficiently handled implements for haying, tillage, and general farm work.
The Case IH 3088 was introduced in 1981 as part of the updated '88 series, succeeding earlier models and offering improvements in operator comfort and performance. The heart of the 3088 is the Case IH 358 cubic inch (5.9L) 6-cylinder diesel engine, delivering approximately 90 horsepower. This provided a good balance of power and fuel efficiency. Transmission options typically included a gear transmission with multiple forward and reverse speeds, allowing for precise speed control in various field conditions. The independent PTO delivered around 75 horsepower, available in both 540 and 1000 RPM configurations, catering to a wide range of implements. The hydraulic system boasted a flow rate suitable for operating loaders and other hydraulic-powered equipment, typically with 2-3 remote valves. It featured a Category II 3-point hitch with a lift capacity sufficient for handling common implements used in row crop farming, hay production, and livestock operations. Compared to smaller models in the Case IH lineup, the 3088 offered more power and hydraulic capacity, while remaining more compact and fuel-efficient than larger frame tractors. Its size made it well-suited for farms needing a versatile tractor for a variety of tasks.
