Maintenance Tips

Engine Oil and Filter: Change the engine oil and filter every 250 hours using a high-quality oil that meets Case IH specifications. This ensures optimal engine lubrication and longevity.
Hydraulic System: Regularly check the hydraulic fluid level and inspect for leaks. Replace the hydraulic filter every 500 hours to prevent contamination and maintain hydraulic performance.
Fuel System: Use clean, high-quality diesel fuel and replace the fuel filter annually, or more frequently if operating in dusty conditions. This prevents fuel system clogs and ensures proper engine operation.
Seasonal Storage: Before storing the tractor for the off-season, stabilize the fuel, change the engine oil and filter, and grease all fittings. This protects the tractor from corrosion and ensures it's ready for use when needed.
