Case IH Unveils Maxxum
Series Mid-Range Tractors
• RACINE, WI The Maxxum
5100 Scries tractors represent the
second generation of totally new,
world-class tractors from Case
International. Built to the standard
of quality "set by the Magnum line,
they’re backed by an exclusive
five ycars/5,000-hour warranty.
The new mid-range Maxxum
tractors are ideal for general
purpose livestock, row-crop, and
specially farming work as well as
roadside maintenance and other
non-agricultural applications, said
Dave DcSulter, project manager
for Case IH.
Three models are available with
a choice of two-wheel drive or
mechanical front drive (MFD), cab
or open platform versions, plus a
selection of axle options, transmis
sions, and tire and wheel equiment.
The three include the 5140, a
94-PTO hp; the 5130, an 86-PTO
hp; and the 5120, a 77-PTO hp.
“All Maxxum tractors feature
new Case International engines for
reliability, durability, and perfor
mance,” said DeSutter. “The
engines arc mounted directly to the
transmission flange with no attach
ment to the tractor frame. This eli
minates stress and shock loads
transmitted to the frame when
using loaders, chemical tanks, or
other front-mounted equipment.
On a Maxxum, these stresses are
absorbed by a massive cast frame,
allowing the engine to do what it
was designed to do—efficiently
power the tractor.”
A fully synchronized, 16 for
ward and 12 reverse speed trans
mission also is standard equipment
on all 5100 Series models. “Four
speeds within each of four ranges
provide the 16 ‘shift-on-thc-go
wilh-clutch’ forward speeds to
accomodate any field require
ment.” commented DeSutter. A
powershift transmission, available
as an option, also offers 16 forward
speeds and 12 reverse speeds with
“no-clutch” shifting within the
ranges.
Either the synchromesh or pow
ershift transmissions are enhanced
by a full-power, no-clutch forward
and reverse shuttle for greater pro
ductivity in such applications as
loader work. For those farming
operations that require slower
speeds to get the job done, Max
xum transmissions can be faclory
or field-filled with an eight-speed
creeper attachment. The creeper
speeds can be sutllc-shiftcd.
A flip of an electrical rocker
switch is all that is needed to
engage the optional MFD axle. A
50-dcgrcc turning axle, combined
with only a six-degree caster
angle, contributes to a flat foot
print that won’t tear up headlands
in tight turning, yet maximizes

pulling power and traction. The
MFD driveline is shielded and
designed to be integral to the trans
mission for maximum ground
clearance.
Maxxum tractors use a pressure
flow compensated (PFC) hydraul
ic system that matches hydraulic
power to the actual load require
ment for maximum implement
efficiency with minimum tractor
usage. One remote valve is stan
dard with three more optional for a
total of four outlets. All arc
equipped for easy and quick imple
ment hookup.
The tractors’ three-point hitches
have the largest lift capacity in the
mid-range tractor market, with
approximately 7,700 pounds. A
front three-point hitch with lift
capacity of 5,200 pounds is avail
able as a factory- or field-installed
option.

We have probably been too modest up to now about the merits of our new generation
ULTRAFLO® cage feeder vs. the old style chain feeders some of our competitors are
still trying to sell you. In fact, the only negative comments about our feeder come from
our competition, not our customers. So we would like to point out the bare facts:
FEED SAVINGS; On-farm results show a feed savings of Vi TROUBLE-FREE DESIGN: Our feeder has only two moving
lb per 100 birds per day - over $lO,OOO per year savings parts - the one-piece auger plus each drive wheel; their chain
on a 100,000-bird house. Year after year. has more. Our comers are heavy 12 ga. line plated tubing for
long life; their comers have a reputation for trouble and short life.
EASY ADAPTABILITY; Ours adapts easily to
existing cage systems you may already have. Or
choose from our wide selection of cage styles.
5-YEAR WARRANTY; Oure gives you a
S-year warranty on auger and trough. Theirs
doesn’t In fact, their dealers derive a large
percentage of their income from parts sales.
Ours don’t.
MICROPROCESSOR CONTROL:
Our control lets you program feeding
time to the second, to match the
exact time of one circuit. Control
number of feedings, time of each
feeding - also 10-second “Stimula
tion Cycles” between feedings, to
minimize separation, and improve
your birds' feed intake.

of FEED:
Our auger travels at 80 r
so birds are limited from ei
until it stops; birds will hi-f
feed from chain feeders,
causing uneven nutrition.
REMIXING FEED; Our auger
•lowly revolves, remixing old I
new feed; theirs leaves most
feed to get stale.
BILLED-OUT FEED: Our auger»
• grid to prevent birds from raking,
and throwing out feed; neither ci
disk systems prevent feed waste.
COST SAVINGS: Ours saves vi

to propel amfnins only half as long as
theirs.
