Electronics featured
RACINE, Wl. - Sophisticated
electronics on the new J I Case 94
Series agricultural tractors
provide monitoring of critical
functions and accurate field
performance data.
The new electronic digital in
strumentation cluster the only
one of its kind now available in the
industry as a standard feature is
featured on Case 94 Series over-100
hp two- and four-wheel-drive
agricultural tractors.
The digital instrumentation
cluster allows an operator to
precisely measure tractor per
formance, including engine rpm,
PTO speed, ground speed, area
worked per hour and total area
worked. With an optional true
ground speed sensor, the per
centage of wheel slippage can be
accurately and constantly
measured. Using this information,
farmers can control the ap
plication of field chemicals or
plant population more precisely.
Lancaster Farming, Saturday, March 10,1984—D0
Monitoring percentage of wheel
slippage helps an operator better
determine distribution of tractor
ballast for increased field ef
ficiency.
Thirteen different indicators
visually and audibly monitor
operating functions such as engine
oil pressure and temperature,
transmission oil pressure and
temperature, exhaust gas tem
perature, coolant temperature and
level, alternator voltage and fuel
level. An inexpensive option
provides for automatic engine
shutdown when malfunctions of
vital systems approach the critical
stage

Case engineers consider the
ability to determine ground speed
the single most important function
of the new 94 Senes electronics.
“By knowing true ground speed,
an operator can more precisely
select operating gears for im
proved field efficiency,” says
George Mueller, J.I Case project
engineer electronics. “This
knowledge also allows the farmer
to more accurately determine the
amount of chemicals that should
be applied to a given area
regardless of wheel slippage,
engine rpm, soil conditions or tire
selection.”

banquet at 7 PM.
At the February meeting of the
association directors accepted the
