Introduction

J.I. Case 2670 Four-Wheel Drive Tractor

The J.I. Case 2670 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor manufactured in Racine, Wisconsin, between 1974 and 1979. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this model was built to handle demanding traction and implement tasks, with a total production run of 5,900 units.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder, 8.3-liter (504 ci) turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine. It generates a gross power output of 256 hp (190.9 kW) at a rated speed of 2200 RPM. The engine features a liquid-cooling system with a 48-quart capacity and utilizes dual paper element air cleaners with a pre-cleaner to maintain performance in dusty conditions.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Equipped with a Range Power Shift transmission, the 2670 offers 12 forward and 4 reverse gears. The system utilizes a partial power shift design, incorporating four gears with a three-range power shift capability (high, intermediate, low). The drivetrain features a 4x4 configuration, complemented by hydrostatic power steering with four-wheel steering functionality for improved maneuverability, and hydraulic wet disc brakes for reliable stopping power.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The 2670 employs an open-center hydraulic system providing a total flow of 34 gpm (128.7 lpm). It is configured with 2 to 4 valves, with 17 gpm (64.3 lpm) dedicated to SCV flow and 17 gpm to steering. The rear Category III hitch provides a lift capacity of 10,000 lbs (4536 kg) measured at 24 inches behind the lift point, supporting a wide range of heavy implements.

Dimensions and PTO

The tractor features a wheelbase of 102 inches and an overall length of 207 inches. It is equipped with an independent rear PTO operating at 1000 RPM. The machine offers adjustable front and rear tread widths ranging from 72 to 92 inches, allowing for adaptation to various row spacings and field conditions.

Conclusion

The J.I. Case 2670 is a high-capacity tractor engineered for heavy-duty field work. Its combination of 256 hp, four-wheel steering, and a robust hydraulic system makes it a suitable choice for large-scale tillage and primary cultivation operations.
