And the first
all-new tractors
from Case IH
Case IH put more into the new MAGNUM tractor line
than any farm tractors developed in over twenty years.
Here’s why you’ll get more out of it:
MAGNUM means more. Outstanding field performance
from a new 505 cubic inch turbocharged engine with
reserve power. MAGNUM power.
The MAGNUM tractor’s powershift puts 18-speeds of shift-
on-the-go workpower at your fingertips—standard. And
only MAGNUM tractors offer a full powershift creeper
transmission with six additional speeds from .5 to 2.1
mph... for more control and performance. MAGNUM
performance.
The MAGNUM tractor’s new larger cab has 48 square feet
of window area... virtually unobstructed visibility... more
seating comfort. MAGNUM comfort.
It all adds up: The Case IH MAGNUM 7140 tractor sets
new standard for the 195 hp (145 kW) class... and for you.
See us for details.
MAGNUM means more.
