Case IH's new JXUs 100pc bio-fuelled for the future

18 Jul, 2008 10:08 AM
The wraps are off Case IH's new generation 100pc biofuel compatible JXU tractors.

Built for versatile performance across a range of farming operations, and particularly suited to dairy and livestock operations, they offer users the flexibility of fuel sourcing now, and in the future.

All three models – which range from 63kW to 78kW (86-106hp) – are powered by 4.5L Case IH engines with a rated speed of 2,300 RPM.

The JXU 85, 95 and 105 models are available with a range of specifications to suit different operations and a choice of either ROPS or cab version.

Equipped as standard with a power shuttle for clutchless and lever-free direction changes, the transmission is available with 12 or 24 gears.

The 24-speed transmission features a power shift for higher productivity and on-the-go shifting, eliminating the need to use the clutch.

Available with manual or electronic draft control, with a maximum lift capacity of up to 5851kg, the JXU is said to be ideal for lifting heavy implements.

Meanwhile, maximum torque at 1300rpm is rated at 366Nm on the JXU 85, with a 40pc torque rise available.
