So a tractor should be 120 pounds per hp in weight to be effective. If yours weighs 10,000 lbs @75 hp that is 133.33 lbs per hp. Do not load tires with calcium chloride it will eat the rims. There are new options . I am not sure why you feel it is not heavy enough.
This tractor and haybine set up belongs to a friend of mine. He described his thought process on this set up but its been so long I can’t remember exactly what he said now.
@@WindersRanger The differential is related to processing speed with the discbine. If you go slower in the field, you do not need as much horse power to run the system. However if you want to go really fast, you need all of the horsepower.
How is the tractor holding up? A guy had a NH 4.75 which had to be bought back, so makes me a little nervous But I love the size and function of this & the 4.75!
This machine belongs to a good friend of mine. As far as i know, over all its held up okay. I think he had a few minor issues but id have to ask him what they were. I know was the bucket and the way it was constructed. The bucket arms seemed a little under sized. He also had to put stops on the bucket to prevent over rolling the bucket and bending the hydraulic pistons. I dont ever remember hearing him say anything bad about its power and ability to do the work he asked of it though.
Have you done an oil change yet? Still love it? There's a special place in hell for the engineers that put two 12mm drain plugs and tucked the filter into that tight corner by the loader mount and then the fill port so intrenched you can't fill it without an dr. Seuss contraption funnel.
This tractor belongs to a find of mine. He has done many oil changes since this video and every one he has told me about sounded like a tough job. From he was telling me the oil filter and drain or one or the other (can't remember for sure) are really tough to get to. Does he still like it? Not sure if it had anything to do with this particular tractor or any of its issues but he has since swapped it out for a newer model. Ill have to ask him what he has now. The new is still a case just not sure of the model number.
No doubt. The maintenance can be a fricken nightmare! To do an oil change i have to remove the loader and then move a bunch of air cond lines and finally have to pull both fuel filters just to get the oil filter in and out. Way over-engineered globalist crap!
How does your 75c handle your discbine? We run the new Holland model (a 2013 t4.75 Powerstar) and we were wanting to update to a discbine but didn't think we had the power. Been looking at an H7220 that's in our area. Our ground would be considered a slightly rolling flat with one good sized hill on one field. I do agree with the lack of weight you can really feel it just goes my across a rough field with how much the whole tractor bounces around. Your thought would be greatly appreciated?
+Mike Slater (his reply) "I would think he would be fine, not going to set the world on fire speed wise. Maybe 6 to 7 mph, less in heavy stuff and definently less on hills. It will pull it though. Should be fine, mower is a good choice also, does a fine job."
Bought a 2017, 120C and at first I loved it but after 160 hrs I was having all sorts of trouble. Dealer had it from January until April 9th 2018 and brought it back unfixable. It doesn't run right and Case IH doesn't have a fix for it. I told them I wasn't willing to keep a tractor that wasn't properly engineered to run right but Case IH is refusing to replace the tractor. FIAT owns CNH so steer clear of Case IH and New Holland! JUNK and they will not stand behind their equipment.
It still saddens me that IHC went belly up back in '84. It seemed they really built stuff to last and were halfway honest for a corporation. It's probably what brought about their demise-their stuff lasted too long and they overproduced during the '70's and couldn't sell enough new ones. They were starting to turn things around but the workers strike in '83 killed them. The 70's and 80's were terrible for farming-and that's when everything got bigger and more expensive as the little guys got swallowed up. IHC was completely American-they even made their own ball bearings but we live in the 'global' world now so we get cheap crap from overseas. Thank our politicians for selling us out.
@@blakeegan138 actually has "made in" nameplates from all over the globe. The cab is made in turkey. The seat is from india. The bucket is italian. Cab air filters are from great britain. I mean this thing has traveled more than a cartoon suitcase. Everytime i check the oil on ours i almost expect bugs bunny to poke his head out and ask me for directions to cu-ca-monga.
I noticed your tractor is a newer model with the park gear on the range selector. Have you had any issues getting the tractor into/out of park gear when hooking implements or getting it out of park if on a slight grade? We are looking at a new 75c but have heard numerous complaints of this on Case's New Holland counterpart T4.75, was just curious if y'all had experienced this at all.
+TheRancher250 Yes, pretty much a constant issue, I have learned to live with it. As I come to a stop I shift into park. It works but takes a little practice.
The tractor had a HP around 65hp at the PTO or at least thats what Case claims. The New Holland Discbine 7220 requires 65hp so its right there. This tractor can manage the discbine okay in most cases.
Its not really that its not possible its just how to pull it off. I either have to travel up there to film it which id love to do or I have to get the owner to film it which he doesn't have the equipment to do other than a cell phone. If I can get him to film it and send me the content I can surly edit it and get it out no problem. The other thing is westerner Maryland has been cold the last couple of weeks and its not likely he'll be doing maintenance again until it warms up a little. He usually does all the equipment maintenance before winter so most of it won't be needed again until it warms up. Let me see what I can do and what I can get out of him for you.
+Lucky13 Farm I just got with the owner of the tractor and he responded right back to me. He said he’s not real sure about an increase in fuel usage during regeneration. He said he has noticed a difference in usable power during the regeneration cycle and because fuel is sprayed into the exhaust to clean it out he assumes that the fuel usage also increases.
WindersRanger I work at a Case ih dealer as a parts guy. As we all know Fiat industries owns CNHI. Anyway the case ih tractors use the iveco engines which is owned by Fiat. The Iveco engines use an SCR only emissions system which means that it only has DEF. No regeneration or EGR. Unless that is an older model of the 75c.
