Case IH 4240 Tractor Parts
4240 parts and accessories
The Case IH 4240, manufactured from 1994 to 1998, was a popular utility tractor known for its reliability and versatility in various farming operations. Powered by a 76 horsepower diesel engine and boasting a robust 66 PTO horsepower, the 4240 provided ample power for tasks like hay baling, loader work, and pulling implements. Its simple design and dependable performance made it a favorite among farmers seeking a durable and easy-to-maintain tractor.
The Case IH 4240 was produced from 1994 to 1998 and was a key model in the Case IH utility tractor lineup. It features a 239 cubic inch (3.9L) Case IH diesel engine producing 76 horsepower. This tractor utilized a mechanical 8-speed synchro transmission, offering a good range of speeds for various field tasks. The PTO delivered 66 horsepower at 540 RPM. The hydraulic system had a capacity of approximately 12.1 GPM, powering the two standard rear remotes. Its Category II 3-point hitch provided a lift capacity of around 4,400 lbs. The 4240 was commonly used for row crop work (planting, cultivating), hay production (mowing, baling), livestock operations (feeding, manure handling), and light tillage. What distinguished the 4240 from other models was its balance of power, simplicity, and affordability, making it a versatile and economical choice for many farmers. It offered more power and features than smaller compact tractors but was more maneuverable and fuel-efficient than larger row crop tractors.

- Inspect and maintain the hydraulic system regularly. Change the hydraulic fluid and filter every 500 hours, using a high-quality hydraulic fluid meeting Case IH specifications. Clean or replace the hydraulic filters (Case IH part number 1986518C1) to prevent contamination.
