Case IH MX240: Unleashing Unrivaled Power and Precision in the Field!

Get ready to experience the pinnacle of agricultural engineering with the Case IH MX240! This isn't just a tractor; it's a powerhouse built to conquer the most demanding tasks on your farm. From its robust engine to its sophisticated hydraulic system, every component is engineered for peak performance and operator comfort. Let's dive into what makes this machine a true game-changer.

Engine Prowess: The Heart of the Beast

Under the hood, the MX240 boasts a formidable liquid-cooled inline engine with a massive 504.5 cubic inch [8.3 L] displacement. Its dual paper element air cleaner ensures that only the cleanest air feeds the engine, promoting longevity and efficiency. With a rated RPM of 2000 and a compression ratio of 17.0:1, this engine delivers uncompromising power when you need it most. The electric direct injection fuel system and a 12-volt starter system ensure reliable ignition and operation.

Transmission Mastery: Shifting Your Productivity into High Gear

Experience seamless control with the MX240's full power shift transmission, offering a versatile 18 forward and 4 reverse gears. The electro-hydraulic wet disc clutches provide smooth, responsive shifts, while the optional creeper transmission expands your options to a remarkable 24 forward and 6 reverse gears, perfect for ultra-low-speed applications. The push-button power shift with left-hand power shuttle further enhances ease of operation.

Hydraulic Might: Powering Your Implements with Ease

This tractor is a hydraulic champion! Featuring a closed-center PFC (Pressure Compensated Flow) system, the MX240 offers exceptional control and efficiency. With a substantial 45.5-gallon [172.2 L] hydraulic capacity and a powerful pump flow of 30 gpm [113.6 lpm] (with an optional 40 gpm [151.4 lpm]), it effortlessly handles even the most demanding implements. The system operates at a robust 2500 psi [172.4 bar] and can accommodate 3 to 5 valves, ensuring you have the hydraulic muscle for any job.

Built for Comfort and Control: The Surveyor Cab Experience

Step into the standard Surveyor Cab and experience agricultural work like never before. Designed with the operator in mind, it provides excellent visibility and a comfortable working environment, complete with air-conditioning to keep you cool during long days. The mechanical features, including four-wheel drive, power steering, and differential hydraulic wet disc brakes, ensure confident handling and safety in all conditions.

Dimensions and Capabilities: Ready for Any Challenge

The MX240 commands attention with its impressive dimensions, including a wheelbase of 118.3 inches [300 cm] and a height of 123.8 inches [314 cm] to the cab. Its rear hitch is rated for a substantial 13000 lbs [5896 kg], with an optional front hitch adding even more versatility. Standard tires include front 16.9R30 and rear 20.8R42, providing a solid foundation for power transfer.
