The Case IH CX80 is a utility tractor produced between 1998 and 2002 as part of the CX series, which also includes the CX70 and CX90 models. Manufactured in Doncaster, England, this tractor is designed for general agricultural operations and field tasks.
Engine and Performance
The CX80 is powered by a Perkins 1004.40T, a 4.0-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. It features a mechanical direct injection fuel system with 5-hole injectors and a liquid cooling system. The engine produces a gross power output of 84 hp (62.6 kW) and a net power of 78 hp (58.2 kW) at a rated speed of 2200 RPM, providing a maximum torque of 253 lb-ft at 1400 RPM.

The tractor is equipped with a hydraulic wet disc clutch and offers several transmission configurations: an 8-speed synchro shuttle, a 16-speed partial power shift with push-button control, or a 24-speed creeper transmission. It is available in a standard 4x2 2WD configuration, with an optional 4x4 MFWD system for improved traction. Steering is managed by a hydrostatic power system, and differential locks are electro-hydraulic.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system is of the open-center type, providing a total flow of 24.2 gpm (91.6 lpm) at a pressure of 2500 psi (172.4 bar). It supports up to three remote valves. The rear hitch is a Category II/I system with electronic upper link control, offering a standard lift capacity of 3,665 lbs (1662 kg), which can be upgraded with an optional 5,097 lbs (2311 kg) lift capacity.
