Case IH Farmall C Upgrade: More power, weight & precision
The Case IH Farmall C, well known across New Zealand, has just seen an upgrade including a new look, increased weight and hydraulic power, and a cab overhaul.
“We know that when customers are looking to make a big investment in new machinery, they need to know how their preferred option stacks up against other machines in the market. We recently reviewed the new Steigers… and [found they] performed considerably better across all the important categories, from power to drive train, operator comfort to visibility,” Wildbore says.
“The Case IH Steiger is the highest horsepower 4WD tractor in production, with Nebraska test-proven best-in-class fuel economy and the largest, most spacious cab. Steiger also offers at least nine standard features not offered [elsewhere, such as] the MultiController armrest and class six automotive grade paint.
Wildbore cites visibility-reducing features including exhaust and air cleaners on the same side, and a higher nose profile, as class-leading features..
The Steiger has half-inch steel fuel tanks, rather than plastic, a heavier frame, a longer wheelbase and the maker’s exclusive Quadtrac option.
Inside the cab, the Steiger offers the AFS Pro 700 touch-screen monitor. The Steiger also offers an exclusive 40-degree seat swivel, a sophisticated shock and stabiliser cab suspension option for smoother ride, and automatic climate control.
The Steiger has the largest axles in the industry, tri-point oscillation chassis with centre-pull drawbar and currently holds the Iron Solutions Award for best resale value in the industry in the 4WD segment.
The Steiger has not only proven itself in Case IH trials: both the new Magnum and the new Steiger set industry records for fuel efficient power in the independent preliminary Nebraska Tractor Test Lab results.
In Australia the Steiger is the market leading 4EWD tractor: last year almost one in every two articulated 4EWD tractors sold in Australia was a Steiger.
