Introduction

Case IH CX100 Utility Tractor

The Case IH CX100 is a utility tractor produced between 1998 and 2002 in Doncaster, England. It belongs to the CX series and was designed to provide versatile performance for agricultural operations, featuring a robust Perkins engine and multiple transmission configurations.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the Perkins 1004.40T, a 4.0-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. It generates a gross power of 100 hp (74.6 kW) and a net power of 94 hp (70.1 kW) at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. Fuel management is handled via a mechanical direct injection system with 5-hole injectors, and the engine is liquid-cooled to maintain operational stability during heavy duty cycles.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The CX100 offers several transmission options to suit varying operational requirements: a standard 8-speed synchro shuttle, a 16-speed partial power shift with a steering column-mounted shuttle lever, and a 24-speed creeper transmission for low-speed tasks. The drivetrain is available in either a 4x2 2WD configuration or an optional 4x4 MFWD 4WD system, both utilizing a 12-inch dry disc clutch.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system is of an open-center design, providing a total flow of 24.2 gpm (91.6 lpm) at a pressure of 2500 psi. It supports up to three remote valves. The independent rear PTO operates at 540 RPM, with an optional dual-shaft configuration allowing for 1000 RPM, controlled by a hydraulic wet disc clutch for smooth engagement.

Chassis and Operator Station

The tractor features hydrostatic power steering and differential hydraulic wet disc brakes for precise handling. The operator station is equipped with a two-post ROPS structure on a flat platform, with an optional factory cab including air-conditioning. Rear lift capacity is rated at 3,665 lbs (1662 kg), with an optional upgrade available to 5,097 lbs (2311 kg).

Conclusion

The Case IH CX100 is a versatile utility tractor suitable for a wide range of field and farmyard applications. Its combination of modular transmission choices, reliable Perkins engine, and robust hydraulic capacity makes it a capable machine for farmers requiring a dependable mid-range tractor.
