CASE IH AFS CONNECT :
THE BENEFITS JUST ADD UP
™
When you combine 21st century telecommunications technology plus
informatics or the science of data processing, you get a new pipeline for
information called telematics. That’s a whole new word, and it’s a whole new
world of agricultural management tools available today from Case IH.
AFS Connect 2.0 from Case IH is a comprehensive
suite of fleet management and maintenance solutions
that gives today’s agriculture producers long-distance,
real-time control over their operation, and it is available
today from your Case IH AFS Certified dealer.
The Case IH AFS solution will help maximize
efficiency by giving instant access to information
about every machine in an operation’s fleet. That
includes location, diagnostics, fuel & engine stats as
well as connections to Case IH service expertise and
24/7/365 expert support.
By providing a flexible yet intuitive, easy-to-operate
interface, the AFS Connect 2.0 solution can help
producers farm better. Case IH customers can count
on a reliable, consistent one-minute data update rate
for every connected vehicle to help managers stay
prompt and effective.
An innovative feature called Live Time offers a
connection between the manager and the equipped
machine’s vital information. It allows for 30 minutes of
real-time, daily connection to each equipped machine.
At the owner’s option, a Live Time session between
the machine operator and a Case IH expert can provide
second-by-second remote training and diagnostics.
AFS Connect 2.0 also integrates live two-way
messaging for quick inquiries to operators via the
AFS Pro 700 control center.
The system isn’t limited to Case IH equipment: AFS
Connect 2.0 helps to manage every element of an
operation’s fleet. It can interface with and monitor
anything with power, from field equipment to road
vehicles. It can help save time, save fuel, cut costs,

MAGNUM ROWTRAC:
TM
BETTER FLOTATION. IMPROVED MANEUVERING. MORE FLEXIBILITY.
THE AGRONOMIC TRACK DESIGN THAT
CHANGED AN INDUSTRY
Case IH engineers designed the exclusive track found
on Magnum Rowtrac tractors based on a startling
observation: The world isn’t flat. So they designed
their tracks to move in three dimensions to maintain
full contact with field contours.
Based upon the original, field-proven Quadtrac
track design introduced in 1996, these individually
driven, oscillating tracks use a five-axle per track
design to lower soil pressure, reduce compaction
and provide better flotation in the field. This more
evenly distributes the load and keeps the power on
the ground. This design produces traction that is
unaffected by hitch or drawbar load, and improves
the ride over terraces and other uneven terrain.
Special challenges face producers who farm in
challenging conditions, like wet, muddy Delta soil;
Idaho’s soft, sandy loam; the saturated floodplains of
the Red River Valley region; or Colorado’s heavy, highplains clay.
If soil conditions often make short planting and
harvesting windows even shorter, the new Case IH
Magnum Rowtrac can help you start sooner, work
longer and enjoy higher yield potential. It could be the
perfect fit for the way you farm.
ADVANCED TIRE TECHNOLOGY
Out in front, Magnum Rowtrac tractors feature advanced
high-tech tires that work with lower air pressure – about
40 percent reduced pounds per square inch (PSI)
compared to traditional MFD tractor tires. That means a
longer footprint on the ground for reduced compaction.
Multiple tire options make it easy to match rear track
width to fit most any row crop practice.
2 | For more information visit caseih.com
When tires may not be the optimal choice, Magnum
Rowtrac offers a solution that outperforms two-track
options. By providing full power to the ground at
all times — even when turning or driving in curved
areas, Magnum Rowtrac delivers less rutting and
berming, and better handling and ride. This is a
fixed-frame row crop machine that turns like a
traditional tractor, yet floats like a tracked machine.
AVAILABLE ROW SPACING & TRACK WIDTHS
MAGNUM ROWTRAC 340 & 380
Available Row Spacing:
20", 22", 30", 34", 36", 38" & 40"
Available Track Widths:

Today Case IH Quadtrac-style tracks are available
across the Case IH line up. For producers who want
to maintain a nice level seedbed without compaction
and full power in turns with minimal berming,
Case IH offers iconic articulated Steiger Quadtrac®
tractors, articulated Steiger Rowtrac models,
fixed-frame Magnum Rowtrac tractors and an
Axial-Flow combine option for front tracks.

RED CUSTOMER GROWS
OPERATION EXPANDS WITH HELP FROM CASE IH FULL LINE & DEALER
In the last year, Philip Parish and Chris Hooks, who
operate P&H Farms near Eddyville, Kentucky, have
doubled their cow-calf operation. They now have
about 400 cow-calf pairs, in addition to 15,000
acres of corn, soybeans and wheat. Their Case IH
equipment was an important factor in making the
expansion a success. For hay production, the farm
uses a Case IH RB564 baler pulled by a Case IH
Puma 170.
FULL LINE PROVIDER
Case IH is committed to delivering the solutions their
customers need to be successful. Thanks to a broad
line up of high quality, reliable agricultural equipment
and all the experience and resources that go with it,
Case IH customers can rely on the organization to
provide virtually every piece of equipment they might
need, and to back it up with genuine Case IH parts,
service and support.
Over their years of farming together, Parish and Hooks
have found that like most businesses, efficient farm
equipment is a prerequisite to expand an operation
and reach higher profits.
its North American employees to working alongside
producers every day. This field-based team backs up
Case IH dealers and is committed to putting their
customers’ needs first.
After their first harvest, they purchased two Case IH
Axial-Flow 2188 combines and leased three Case IH
Magnum 8950 tractors.
“P&H Farms has many knowledgeable employees
and operators for their equipment,” says Case IH
salesman Jeff Morgan of H&R Agri-Power, who
services P&H Farms. “When we get a call from them,
we know that they need our assistance and service
immediately. We work quickly to resolve their question
and make sure they have what they need to operate
efficiently.”
“We see the benefits of better equipment, which
has given us confidence in our investments and a
promise that improved productivity will pay off,” says
Parish. Today, P&H Farms has assembled a full line
of Case IH tractors, combines and hay and forage
equipment to meet the needs of their crop and
livestock operation.
DEALER DEDICATION
Case IH understands that good support is important,
as it continues to dedicate more than two-thirds of
Morgan regularly checks in with personnel from
P&H. In addition, H&R Agri-Power has set up service
station boxes at P&H Farms so that frequently used
parts such as belts are stocked and ready when they
need them.
RB5 SERIES ROUND BALER LINE EXPANDS
Hay growers now have new options available to speed
baling. The new RB455 (4x5-ft. bales) and RB465
(4x6-ft. bales) round balers deliver 20 percent more
capacity than their predecessors, similar to the RB565
(5x6-ft. bales) introduced last year. The RB455 and
RB456 can be ordered in four configurations: hay,
silage, rotor feeder and rotor cutter.
4 | For more information visit caseih.com
To boost capacity, the overshot feeder between the
pick-up and bale chamber allows for quick and even
feed of material into the bale chamber. In addition, the
roller windguard and five bar pick-up, available on the
silage, rotor feeder, rotor cutter and premium models,
comb the crop off the ground for fast and even feeding.
RB5 series balers are built to last, featuring a totally
redesigned pick-up that’s been strengthened from the
inside out. Belt tracking and durability has never been
better using all-new premium belts available in a laced
or endless design.
To simplify operation, RB5 balers offer an
ISOBUS-compliant control system. You can run the baler
through the AFS Pro 700 control center in your tractor,
providing a simple user interface with the large touch
screen monitor.
AGRONOMIC DESIGN:
PUTTING PRODUCERS FIRST MEANS PUTTING YIELD FIRST.
Agronomics is where agronomy and
economics meet. It is a framework
for viewing every aspect of production
through a cost/benefit lens. For today’s
producer, that means ever-increasing
attention to each detail of an operation,
with an eye to bottom-line results.
For Case IH, it means every new
development needs to pass a simple
litmus test: “Will this help growers
maximize their yield and ROI potential?”
FARMERS ARE
THE ULTIMATE EXPERT
AGRONOMICS:
IT’S AGRONOMY AND MORE
Every season, producers face the challenge of
making the most of their acreage and getting the
highest yields they can. They make decisions about
crops, seed, inputs and equipment based on sound
principles – the best agricultural, financial and
market information available.
Agronomic Design starts in the field – listening,
learning, developing a deep understanding of
producers to inform every design decision. Case IH
engineers and product experts get feedback from
growers constantly, from field visits, field tests and
from information relayed through Case IH experts
based in the field, who support dealers working
alongside customers.
At Case IH, we follow the path laid out by ag
producers. Our product development process
begins and ends with growers. We pay attention
to what they do and why they do it, and then we
offer designs to help them do it better. We call that
Agronomic Design.
Case IH utilizes eight Agronomic Design Principles
to guide our product development, each beginning
with a basic customer need. Case IH equipment is
designed to improve crop residue management, soil
tilth, seed bed conditions, seed placement accuracy,
plant food availability, crop protection and harvest
quality. At every step, the goal is to give producers
more in-field advantages to help them optimize
the growing environment for healthier plants and a
better harvest.
So while product development uses the talents of
many specialists in design, agronomics, engineering,
ergonomics, telematics and more, the final and most
important voice at the table is that of ag producers.
Nobody knows their acreage better.
That applies to big decisions about big machines, like
Axial-Flow combines. The first Axial-Flow combine
was refined in its prototype stages by putting it to
work in actual harvest conditions and integrating
grower suggestions into the design. Decades later,
Axial-Flow retains its industry leadership through
a process of continuous improvement. That means
hearing what producers have to say, benchmarking
actual harvest results against competitors, and adding
design upgrades season after season.
Similarly, when producers told us that they weren’t
achieving the field results they wanted from their
tillage passes, Case IH gathered more than 2 million
hand-collected data points in a five-year field research
project in five states and seven locations. From that
research, we learned that up to 10 percent of seeds
planted failed to emerge or develop a full ear at
harvest because of cloddy, uneven output. Most of
those lost plants were recovered, simply by focusing
on delivering level output, both clod and valley
free, following primary tillage. This drove significant
improvements in the Ecolo-Tiger® and True-Tandem™
product families.
Listening to producers impacts the little things we do,
as well. When Case IH designers wanted to improve
their cab control, they invited customers to sit down
and share their ideas. As part of the design process,
producers were given modeling clay to mold into the
forms they found most comfortable. So today’s
Case IH Multi-Function control handle is the literal
result of hands-on input from real-world users.

CASE IH INTRODUCES NEW
GENERATION TIGER POINT
The leading factor in crop yield reduction is soil
compaction caused by heavy rainfall, high traffic
loads and other conditions that limit the soil’s waterholding capacity and ability to break down nutrients
for plant use.
Staying true to its Agronomic Design tradition, the
new generation Case IH Tiger Point, with its unique
“lift, twist and roll” capability, aggressively fractures
tough compaction and relocates soil particles, in
both wet and dry conditions, with wings that sweep
downward, rearward and outward.
6 | For more information visit caseih.com
The sturdy alloy-steel construction of the new
generation Tiger Point is based on years of in-depth
research on tillage and planting agronomics. Our
testing shows that the new Tiger Point also creates
less draft than competitive points, resulting in
reduced fuel consumption.
With a fresh, innovative design, the new generation
Tiger Point is two times more wear-resistant than
previous versions — which means less downtime
and more field time.
NEW 7" Tiger Point (part number 47465172)
NEW PLANTER PARTNERSHIP
CASE IH OFFERS NEW OPTION TO COMBINE AGRONOMIC DESIGN AND PRECISION PLANTING
®
Producers considering a Case IH Early Riser® this year
have a new option to transform their proven planter
into 12, 16 or 24 individual planters – all on the same
toolbar, but each equipped to adjust individually to
field conditions and predefined prescriptions. Thanks
to a new partnership with Precision Planting, you can
choose to specially equip your Case IH planter with
select Precision Planting components.
20/20 SeedSense® real-time, row-by-row, performance
monitoring allows you to make decisions on the go.
It provides clear visibility to diagnose planting errors,
reduce compaction, control depth and evaluate
seeding performance.
Use FieldView® and FieldView® Plus to turn monitor
data into a high-definition picture of planter
performance from any location anytime through an
iPad. This wireless, cloud-based system puts all field
and planting data at your fingertips to drive decisions.
Your Case IH dealer now serves as a one-stop shop for
high-tech planter solutions. Customize your Early Riser
planter with added features that fit your fields’ needs.
Set and adjust residue managers from the cab using
CleanSweep®. Air cylinders provide flexibility and
enhanced performance to clear residue and improve
emergence without going too deep to create trenches.
The vDrive electric meter-drive system prevents
overlaps and provides contour control to maximize
seed placement accuracy. Maintain the prescribed
population on each row for optimal yield potential.
The vSet™ vacuum meter system provides industryleading singulation accuracy with no need
for adjustments.
™
Add DeltaForce® to automatically control down
pressure on every row for more accurate seed depth
across varying soil conditions. DeltaForce can also lift
the row unit to optimize seed placement in soft soil.
Get the most up-to-date weather information for
fieldwork planning thanks to the all-new integration
with The Climate Corporation.
EARLY RISER ROW UNIT ADVANTAGES COMPLEMENTED
Every corn grower strives for rows and rows of evenlyspaced corn plants growing at the same height and
stage. Those photocopy plants are clear signals that
your seed got off to a good start, planted at the
proper depth, with uniform soil pressure all around
the seed and good soil-to-seed contact.
compaction vectors that intersect at the base of the
seed trench.
The proven Early Riser planter row unit was designed
to start seed off right. First, it creates the industry’s
only true “V” seed trench using a furrow forming
point and seed protection shoe that holds the seed
trench open long enough for the seed to drop to the
bottom of the trench. Compare that to a conventional
row unit that uses trench wall compaction to hold the
furrow open and leaves a loose “w” soil profile that
leads to inconsistent seed depth.
A corn seedling only has 120-150 psi capability to
establish a root base and get its head out of the
ground. Once it gets sunlight, it becomes more
vigorous and has 450 psi to grow its roots. If a new
plant has to deal with compaction at the bottom of
the seed trench, as with a conventional row unit, it
can’t establish a strong root system, putting it at a
disadvantage for the whole growing cycle explains Bill
Hoeg, North America Marketing Manager for Planters.
Then the Early Riser reduced radius gauge wheel
captures the soil coming out of the trench, while
carrying the weight of the row unit and planter
almost two inches from the seed trench wall. This
leaves a soft trench wall and a compaction free
zone directly below the seed. Compare this with
conventional row units that carry the weight of
the planter on the edge of the trench and create
“The proven emergence advantage of the Early
Riser system makes the bottom of the seed trench
a compaction free zone,” Hoeg adds. “As a result,
plants develop a more robust initial root base as they
push their heads out of the ground. That robust root
establishment makes the plant stronger and in a
better position to utilize its extra vigor to deal with the
real world soil conditions it might face.”
Other planters use a pinch wheel system. It tries to
collapse the compacted side walls from the top down,
mixing and covering the seed with dry soil and leaving
air gaps that lead to poor soil-to-seed contact.
To meet our customers’ needs, especially in more
challenging, variable conditions, Case IH and Precision
Planting have teamed up to offer the Early Riser with
select Precision Planting components like DeltaForce®,
which automatically controls the planter’s down pressure
on a row-by-row basis for more accurate seed depth.
“By managing down force in a ‘controlled loop,’ a
grower can monitor, measure and react almost like
the planter is thinking for itself,” says Cory Muhlbauer,
Field Agronomist for Precision Planting.
“Automated down force management helps the grower
maintain more consistent seed depth, quickly adjust to
changing soil conditions, and facilitates faster planting
speeds. Precision Planting’s DeltaForce reads 200
times per second, reacting up to five times per second
to changing conditions. The integration of Precision
Planting products into the Case IH Early Riser row units
will be a huge win for the Case IH grower to optimize
planter performance,” Muhlbauer says.
Hoeg provides a demonstration of the Early Riser row
unit on CaseIH.com or YouTube. Visit YouTube.com/
CaseIHTube and search “Case IH Early Riser planter.”

THE BEST GETS BETTER
IN TOUGH CONDITIONS
TRUE-TANDEM 335 VT GETS RUGGED TREATMENT
™
The True-Tandem 335 VT solidifies the leadership
legacy of Case IH vertical tillage tools with even more
durable components. Thanks to this workhorse’s
combination of Agronomic Design features and
rugged components, producers can take on heavy
residue, uneven ground and rocky conditions. New
components also reduce maintenance for more
uptime and productive seedbed preparation. The best
line of vertical tillage tools just got better with the
True-Tandem 335 VT.
UNMATCHED BLADE DURABILITY
New Earth Metal® VT wave blades, made from
a proprietary steel formula and process, are
significantly more durable than conventional blades.
In field tests conducted on 3,200 acres of hard,
rocky ground in North Dakota, the Earth Metal VT
wave blades took a pounding without breaking.
hydraulic down pressure system. Increase the down
pressure in harder soils and decrease it in softer
conditions. Producers can also raise the basket in
wet, muddy spots from the cab.
DOUBLE DUTY
The durable double-edge rolling reel does double duty
by hitting large clods of soil twice for improved soil
stratification and leveling. The reel’s bars also are
rifled to maintain constant down pressure on the soil
so the True-Tandem 335 VT does not miss a beat over
uneven terrain. This results in level, evenly distributed
soil for better seed-to-soil contact.
LENGTH, WEIGHT AND BALANCE
Case IH has lengthened the frame of the True-Tandem
335VT by 16 inches to improve the tool’s balance
as it travels across your fields. Balance and stability
are key to soil leveling. A smooth soil floor paves the
way for smooth seeding. Lengthening the frame also
results in increased positive tongue weight in the
field, during transport and in storage.
AGRONOMIC DESIGN INSIGHTS VIDEO
MINIMIZING YIELD-ROBBING SOIL COMPACTION
While the impact of compaction may be
invisible in a good year, you can see significant
yield loss in compacted areas in challenging
conditions. Tony McClelland, Case IH field
expert and crop production specialist, describes
different types and causes of soil compaction,
and their impact on yield. To learn more
about compaction and how innovative Case IH
Quadtrac and Rowtrac track designs can help
minimize the issue, check out the video at
caseih.com/AgronomicDesign.
Count on them to size and mix the heaviest Bt
residue and tough soils. The shallow-concavity,
crimped-center blades are mounted securely and are
less susceptible to wear and tear than conventional
blades. The blades cut even the heaviest residue and
mix it with the soil to hasten plant decomposition and
nutrient cycling.
HYDRAULIC CONTROL OF THE FIELD FINISH
Producers can adjust the rolling rear basket to
changing field conditions with the new active
ROLL OUT THE HARROW RUGGED AND PRODUCTIVE
The single-fold True-Tandem 345 is the latest in the
long line of rugged, productive tillage tools from
Case IH. New features have been added to improve
this seedbed disk harrow’s productivity and durability.
Rugged Earth Metal blades, with flat, crimped
centers for added strength and long life, power
through the thickest of Bt corn residue. Various blade
thickness and edge options are available for a wide
range of soils and field conditions. The durable Earth
Metal blades size and mix residue with soil for optimal
plant decomposition.
In addition, an optional, double-edge rolling reel
basket with a new active hydraulic down pressure
control sizes large clods and further conditions soil
before planting. Adjust down pressure from the
cab on-the-go with changing field conditions. For
additional soil conditioning flexibility, choose from
the following options: a three-bar coil tine harrow for
superior leveling and residue flow; adjustable tine
angle and down pressure; and a rear hitch for pulling
a Case IH Crumbler seedbed conditioner.
An improved scraper design has been added to
minimize plugging. Fixed-mount scrapers keep mud
and trash from building up on the blades, making
tillage more efficient. Heavy cast iron spools between
the blades add weight to the gangs where it’s needed,
not the frame. Case IH also has added greaseless
bearings on hinges, rockshafts and baskets to reduce
routine maintenance.
The unique symmetrical design of the True-Tandem
345 offers easy pulling and high performance
seedbed preparation, even in the roughest of fields.
Stubble-resistant tires add to the disk harrow’s rugged
profile. These optional stubble-resistant tires are
larger—340/55-16 on smaller models and 380/60R16.5 on larger machines—for enhanced flotation
and reduced soil compaction.

HARVEST MORE,
MORE EFFICIENTLY
MORE EFFICENT POWER RIGHT FROM THE START
Like their legendary predecessors, new Axial-Flow 240 series combines will
deliver the top performance that producers have come to expect, and more. More
high quality grain, simplicity, crop adaptability, matched capacity, and top resale
values – plus unmatched horsepower in their respective classes. For example, the
new Axial-Flow 9240 tops out at 625 peak horsepower with the new Case IH FPT
15.9L in-line, 6-cylinder, Tier 4 B/Final engine.
Our industry-exclusive Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)-only exhaust
aftertreatment technology allows Case IH FPT engines to create more power with
an average of 10 percent less fuel consumption than comparable Tier 3 models.
LOW MAINTENANCE CVT DRIVES
Producers need to maximize time available for harvest, especially when harvest
windows are narrow. To keep them up and running, Axial-Flow 240 series
combines continue to use low-maintenance Power Plus Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) drives, significantly reducing the use of chains and belts.
This unique, but proven, drive system also features the industry’s only in-cab
feature to reverse the rotor and deslug the combine. No more getting out of the
cab and spending hours pulling out plugs by hand.
Unlike complex competitive designs with more parts, more heat and more
opportunities for trouble, Case IH models require only one turbocharger, no diesel
particulate filter, no exhaust gas recirculation system and no operational changes
when upgrading from Tier 4A Case IH models. Since engine exposure to soot
and carbon are minimized, service intervals are extended – including an industryleading 600 hours between oil changes.
Whether using the 7240 with 403 rated horsepower (hp), the 8240 with
480 hp or the 9240 with 550 hp, producers will power through demanding field
conditions and handle heavy loads. The new Case IH FPT 11.1 L, 12.9 L and
15.9 L engines feature in-line six-cylinder diesels with full-authority common
rail fuel injection systems, steel-alloy pistons and mid-stop cylinder liners. These
designs produce Tier 4 B-compliant engines that producers will find use less fuel
and fluids and improve their throughput in most conditions.
GREATER GRAIN CAPACITY
Axial-Flow 240 series systems have been upgraded to match available
horsepower. Higher capacity grain tanks are sized to open most fields before
unloading and get through harvest in less time with less labor. Models 8240
and 9240 feature 410-bushel tanks, while the 7240 has a 315-bushel tank.
Added horsepower helps speed unload times, too. Unload up to 4.5 bushels per
second. New fuel tank capacities keep you running up to 16 hours on one fill.
To match the higher horsepower and larger grain tank, Case IH has improved
yield sensors, software and grain delivery systems. All new cooling systems
include a rotary Air-Wand to ensure maximum performance from the new line
of Case IH FPT engines.
PRECISION FARMING INTEGRATED
The AFS Pro 700 control center is the heart of the combine’s precision agriculture
functions, such as on-the-go yield monitoring and guidance control, but it also is
the primary interface for header control and other key adjustments and machine
functions. And, the AFS Pro 700 can be easily transported to your tractor cab for
planter control or sprayer for application mapping.
New this year for Axial-Flow 240 combines is the AFS Connect 2.0 fleet
management and maintenance monitoring solution, giving producers the power to
use their global positioning systems and cellular technology to send and receive
agronomic and job-site information. This newest telematics technology will help
producers track combines, grain carts and semis and improve productivity with upto-the-minute harvest information. Like never before, Case IH helps producers be
ready and maximize their potential return on investment.
Case IH Axial-Flow combines are built to provide producers more agronomic
advantages at the Case IH Harvesting Center of Excellence in Grand Island, Neb.

fleet of field equipment, support vehicles, road transport – in fact, just about anything with a motor can be
included, regardless of manufacturer. Up-to-the-minute data from every machine is brought to the user’s laptop,
tablet or other device through a clear and intuitive browser-based interface. That means that any seat, from the
kitchen table to the truck to the combine, can be the driver’s seat for an entire operation.
LOCATION
THIS DASHBOARD LOOKS LIKE A DASHBOARD
Precise information from GPS satellite data lets you
know the exact location of every piece of connected
equipment. And
because AFS
Connect 2.0 updates
every minute of the
day, you’ll always
be working from the
latest information.
Here’s a feature that makes a producer feel at home.
The AFS Connect
2.0 dashboard is
bold, clear and
easy to read,
displaying important
information like
engine speed,
hydraulics, oil temperature, fuel level and more.
MACHINE DATA
REAL-TIME CONNECTION:
LIKE AN EXPERT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT
Updating every minute, AFS Connect 2.0 provides
comprehensive machine data. That allows the user
to monitor and
analyze things like
ground speed,
engine speed, gear
selected, temperature
and more. And
because all this
data is recorded and tracked in a system with alert
capabilities, it simplifies scheduled maintenance
management.
Each supported machine can access 30 minutes
per day of real-time, interactive connection. That lets
a user at a remote location see the same parameters
as what the operator is seeing on the AFS Pro 700.
They can interact in real time to provide coaching,
specialized training or diagnostic help.
EXPERTS THAT ARE AT THE READY
At the discretion of the customer, Case IH dealer
specialists and Case IH experts offer 24/7/365
guidance and troubleshooting know-how.
Issues can be
resolved faster,
saving both travel
and downtime
in the field, via
a phone link,
Live Time or text
messaging.
YOU CONTROL YOUR DATA
There’s no opaque language in the fine print, no
opt-out box to find and check off. AFS Connect 2.0
users are in control of all their critical data, and can
choose whether to share it with Case IH experts for
diagnostics, service or training. Even then, Case IH
will never share or sell any data.
Today’s producers are finding they have more acreage
than ever under cultivation and more machines in
their fleet. Especially with fields sometimes scattered
all over the map, it’s more important than ever to use
tools that can help simplify diagnostics and machine
and performance monitoring and focus maintenance
tracking. With AFS Connect, producers can get more
done, in less time, over a wider range. Here’s a way to
push back the horizon of the possible.
FEEDBACK FROM THE FIELD: WHAT SOME AMERICAN PRODUCERS SAY ABOUT AFS CONNECT 2.0
Just simplicity – that’s the key to efficiency.

more user-friendly we make the technology
the better, and the more efficient everyone will
be able to be.

MODEL YEAR 2015 ALL-PURPOSE
TRACTORS ADD POWER, FEATURES
Whether you are seeking a high performance,
yet cost-effective, tractor for your everyday
jobs or you want to maximize your productivity
with big tractor features and big tractor
technology, Case IH has new tractor models to
fit your farm and your needs. Four new
Farmall 100A series models deliver valuepriced, low-cost power. Five new Maxxum
models offer the latest performance-enhancing
technology and styling.
Both updated lines will be Tier 4 B/Final
compliant and use smart, simple Case IH FPT
SCR-only exhaust aftertreatment systems.
Without this patented Efficient Power
technology, others are forced to compromise
with hybrid solutions that combine EGR, SCR
and a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) – all on
one engine. That added complexity has a
negative impact on performance
and efficiency.
FARMALL 100A SERIES DELIVERS
EVEN MORE VALUE
Easy-to-operate Farmall 100A series tractors are the
top value tractor for producers looking for a durable,
yet high-performing, machine to accomplish a wide
range of jobs. Manufactured in North America, this
simple and versatile tractor line now offers even
more standard features than comparable models in
its class.
The Farmall 100A series cab has been upgraded
to offer the most comfort available in its class, and
now the ergonomic controls are consistent with other
tractors in the Farmall family. An instructional seat
is available, and a new option for a high visibility
roof panel improves sight lines and simplifies loader
operation.
Unlike some competing tractor lines, the Farmall 100A
series offers numerous feature options to match
your specific needs. Choose from either a cab or
ROPS platform. An 8x8 power shuttle transmission
comes standard, but an 8x8 synchro shuttle or 16x8
power shuttle with hi-lo transmissions are options.
The Farmall 100A series also boasts a best-in-class
3-point hitch lift capacity of up to 7,200 pounds.
Lifting heavy loads is made easy with 22 gallons per
minute (gpm) of hydraulic flow
2015 MAXXUM SPORTS NEW LOOK
New 2015 Maxxum models will feature new,
aggressive styling, which includes a new roof with
upgraded LED light package. The hood has also been
significantly updated, giving us the first look at the
new styling to be introduced to the Case IH highhorsepower families of tractors.
Five new Tier 4 B/Final-compliant models – the
Maxxum 115, 125, 135, 145 and 150 – deliver
95, 105, 110, 120 and 125 PTO hp respectively.
Thanks to a slightly longer wheelbase, operators will
value an improved turning radius while maintaining
the stability and comfort that a longer wheelbase
provides. An upgraded front axle suspension system
with double the strength, through the use of nodular
iron casting, will be used in these tractors for longer
component life. The headland control system available
on Puma® tractors is now included on the updated
Maxxum line, as well.
If you’re seeking more control and efficiency, the
4-cylinder Maxxum line offers the option to upgrade
to a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). Or,
choose a Maxxum MultiController model with the
same controls and AFS Pro 700 control center as the
Case IH Puma, Magnum and Steiger tractors.
