RACINE, WISCONSIN
Case IH today introduced the all
new 7100 Series tractors, called
the Magnum line, featuring a total
ly new engine, transmission and
cab that will set future industry
standards for performance, effi
ciency and operator comfort.
The Magnum line of two-wheel
drive tractors in the 130 to 195
PTO horsepower (hp) range repre
sents a totally new approach to
tractor design and manufacturing,
inspired by the 1985 merger of J I
Case and International Harvester.
“The research, engineering and
manufacturing standards estab
lished by the Magnum tractors set
the stage for future Case IH pro
duct offerings, in addition to estab
lishing new industry performance
and quality benchmarks,” said
Jerome K. Green, Case IH presi
dent and chief executive officer.
The Magnum line includes the
Model 7110 (130 PTO hp), the
Model 7120 (150 PTO hp), the
Model 7130 (170 PTO hp) and the
Model 7140 (195 PTO hp). A
mechanical-front-drive (MFD)
option is available on all models.
Key features include:
• a large displacement,
505-cubic-inch turbocharged
engine with high torque rise for
maximum power, efficiency and
long life;
• an 18-speed full powershift
transmission and optional six
speed creeper for a total of 24
speeds providing more power
shifts than any other tractor in the
industry; and
• a new cab with more than
47 square feet of glass for
unsurpassed visibility that will
also set new standards of comfort.
Engine Capabilities
All Magnum tractors incorpo
rate the computer-aided designed
and manufactured Family II
6T-830 turbocharged diesel
engine. The Model 7140 is also
aftercooled.
The water-cooled, 505-cubic
inch engine delivers more power at
lower ipm, resulting in longer and
cooler operation at maximum
horsepower and greater fuel eco
nomy. Additionally, the engine’s
high torque rise and excellent lug
ging ability allow smooth and effi
cient operation regardless of soil
condition or changing terrain.
The new Family II design uses
25 percent fewer parts than com
parable engines and has* a high
degree of parts conuponality with*
Family I engines found in other
Case IH tractors.
Magnum tractors have a con
boiled air-flow system that fea
tures a totally enclosed engine
compartment to keep out dirt and
debris. A tilt hood unique service
door and easily removable panels
provide instant access to the entire
engine.
Other features that further
improve operating and mainte
nance efficiencies include:
• an exclusive Poly-Vee drive
belt that does the work of multiple
bells in standard engines, resulting
in longer belt life and reduced
servicing requirements;
• an automatic belt tensioner to
further increase belt life, improve
efficiency and minimize
adjustments;
• a viscous fan drive on Models
7120,7130 and 7140 for improved
fuel economy and engine
efficiency;

BUSINESS NE
Stoltzfus Feed And Supply Opens
Leon Stoltzfus has opened Stolt
zfus Feed & Supply, a full service
feed business in Gap, one mile
south of Route 30 on Route 41.
‘The people in farming today,
are still die kind of people I admire
most and try to work closely with,”
says Leon Stoltzfus. ‘They are
individuals that are self-motivated
and self-directed, which results in
solid business practices and ethics.
The culmination of many years of
effort toward owning and operat
ing ones own business is a basic
part of America’s tradition. We
believe in the free enterprise
system.”
Stoltzfus Feed & Supply is
unique in that after years of work
ing with farmers. They wanted to
find a way to help the independent
farmer survive. Their concept of
helping the fanner be competitive
is to help him keep his feed costs
down. One way they do this is by
providing swine and beef base
mixes for the farmer to add to his
own grain. They also buy hogs for
Leidy’s packing.
After selling swine base mixes,
baby pig starters, prestarters, and
feed grade medication to farmers
for the last several years, Stoltzfus
decided to open a warehouse in the
Gap area and expand the business
to include a full line of feeds from
pets to farm animals as well as salts
and water softener salts.

“We want to serve the commun
ity’s needs,” Stoltzfus said. “Our
plans are to grow with the com
munity.” In order to do this he will
also add a line of mulches and lawn
care products in the spring.
“We will handle anything that
can be bought in a bag,” Stoltzfus
said. Adding to the Carl Akey pro
ducts aforementioned,” they are
offering beef base mixes, dairy
feed ingredients, calf starters and
milk replacers. Vitamin and min
eral mix for poultry, turkey and
sheep is also available. A full line
of pet feeds are available for dogs,
cats, rabbits, horses and birds, as
well as specialty feeds. The store
handles Buckeye, Purina, Dad’s,
Wayne, lams, Science Diets and
ANF feeds.
Stoltzfus has hired three
employees to help service custom
ers. They will work in conjunction
with nutritionists and veterinarians
to offer advice on nutritional needs
and will be able to special order
products that are needed. Because
of buying in truck load lots, many
of the products are available at
lower costs.
Stoltzfus Feed and Supply,
which opened on July 27, is open
Monday through Thursday from
7:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m., Friday
from 7:30 a.m. until 8 p.m. and
