OPERATOR’S MANUAL
Electro-magnetic Interference (EMC)
• Ensure that each piece of non-Case IH equipment fitted to the tractor bears the
CE mark.
• The maximum power of emission equipment (radio, telephones, etc.) must not
exceed the limits imposed by the national authorities of the country where you
use the tractor.
• The electro-magnetic field generated by the add-on system should not exceed
24 V/m at any time and at any location in the proximity of electronic components.
Failure to comply with these rules will render the Case IH warranty null and void.

Protective Structure, such as: a Roll Over Protective
Structure (ROPS) or Falling Object Protective
Structure (FOPS) or Cab with ROPS. A ROPS may
be a cab frame or a two--posted or four--posted
structure used for the protection of the operator to
minimise the possibility of serious injury.
The Protective Structure is a special safety
component of your machine.
DO NOT attach any device to the Protective
Structure for pulling purposes. DO NOT drill holes to
the Protective Structure.
The Protective Structure and interconnecting
components are a certified system. Any damage,
fire, corrosion or modification will weaken the
structure and reduce your protection. If this occurs,
the Protective Structure MUST be replaced so
that it will provide the same protection as a new
Protective Structure. Contact your dealer for
Protective Structure inspection and replacement.
After an accident, fire, tip or roll over, the following
MUST be performed by a qualified technician before
returning the machine to field or job site operation.
• The Protective Structure MUST be replaced.

Your tractor is equipped with a safety cab and
retractable seat belt. Always use the seat belt when
a safety cab is fitted. Do not use a seat belt if the
tractor is not equipped with a safety cab.
To fasten the belt, pull the belt from the reel and push
the tongue (1) into the buckle end (2) until a ‘click’
indicates it is properly engaged. To disengage, press
the red release button (3) on the buckle and remove 55

WARNING
On four wheel drive tractors the drive to the front axle
is automatically engaged at speeds above 8.5 km/h
(4 MPH) when the brakes are applied to provide four
wheel braking. Owners should be aware of the 61
effectiveness of four wheel braking which greatly
enhances braking performance. Appropriate care
should be exercised during heavy braking.
WARNING
For your safety, always lock the brake pedals
together when travelling at transport speeds or if a
hydraulically braked trailer is attached to the tractor.
To lock the pedals together, engage the locking pin
in the right pedal and swivel the latch (1), over the left
pedal support to lock, as shown.

WARNING
The radar ground speed sensor emits a low intensity
microwave signal which will not cause any ill effects
in normal use. Although the signal intensity is low, do
not look directly into the face of the sensor while in

SECTION 7 -- SPECIFICATIONS
When checking the rear axle oil level, it is good practice to ensure that the oil is up to the full mark on the dipstick
with the tractor parked on level ground. However, when connecting auxiliary equipment to the remote control
valves it should be remembered that the equipment utilises oil from the rear axle and could seriously lower the
oil level. Operating the tractor with a low oil level may result in. damage to the rear axle and transmission
components.
With the rear axle oil level up to the full mark on the dipstick, the following maximum oil volumes may be taken
from the rear axle to power auxiliary equipment without the need to further top up the system:
Operating while driving in. normal conditions (flat fields) for short periods only: 15 litres (15.8 U.S. qts)
Operating in. other conditions, including longer periods of use: 9 litres (9.5 U.S. qts)
Conversely, the maximum amount of oil that may be added to the rear axle above the normal FULL level is 7
litres (7.3 U.S. qts). With this quantity added to the rear axle, the quantities stated above may be increased by
the same amount, 7 litres (7.3 U.S. qts), but no more.
