Case IH 844 Tractor Parts
844 parts and accessories
The Case IH 844 tractor, manufactured from 1979 to 1984, was a popular choice for farmers needing a reliable utility tractor. Powered by a 68 horsepower diesel engine, the 844 provided ample power for various farm tasks. With a PTO horsepower around 60, it was well-suited for operating implements like mowers, balers, and rotary cutters.
The Case IH 844 was a workhorse of the late 1970s and early 1980s, produced from 1979 to 1984. It filled a crucial role in the Case IH lineup as a mid-sized utility tractor. The engine powering the 844 is an International Harvester D-239 4-cylinder diesel engine, producing approximately 68 horsepower with a displacement of 239 cubic inches. The transmission is a gear-type transmission offering 8 forward and 4 reverse speeds. The PTO delivers around 60 horsepower at 540 RPM, making it suitable for a wide range of implements. The hydraulic system has a capacity of approximately 9 GPM, typically with two remote valves. The 3-point hitch is a Category II, offering a lift capacity of around 4,000 lbs. Farmers used the 844 for row crop work, hay production, livestock operations, and general tillage tasks. While the larger Case IH models were designed for heavy tillage, the 844 excelled in versatility and maneuverability for smaller to medium-sized farms.
