Rebuild Procedures:
Comprehensive instructions for complete rebuilding of major components such as engines, transmissions, and hydraulic pumps.
Adjustment And Alignment:
Detailed procedures for making necessary adjustments to various systems for optimal performance.
Digital Format:
PDF (Portable Document Format) - often searchable, bookmarked, and printable.
Print Quality:
High-resolution scans ensuring clear text and diagrams for easy readability and printing.
Binding:
N/A for digital formats. For print, typically coil-bound or perfect bound for durability.
Paper Quality:
N/A for digital formats. For print, typically heavy-duty paper stock suitable for workshop environments.
Engine Model:
Typically a Case IH F5 series diesel engine (e.g., F5C) or similar Shibaura-derived engine, depending on exact C80 variant and year.
Horsepower Rating:
Approx. 80 Engine HP (specific PTO HP will vary). Exact rating confirmed in manual.
Torque Peak:
Specifications for peak torque and RPM available in the manual.
Injection System:
Commonly Bosch inline injection pump or distributor-type pump, depending on emission standards and year.
Transmission Type:
Likely a 16-speed Synchro Shuttle (16F/16R) manual transmission or a hydrostatic transmission (HST) option.
Transmission Options:
Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) is a common option for ease of operation.
Powershift Capabilities:
If Synchro Shuttle, it typically offers on-the-fly directional changes without clutching.
Pto Options:
Standard 540/540E PTO, with potential for a 1000 RPM PTO depending on configuration.
Instrument Panel:
Basic analog gauges for RPM, engine temperature, fuel level, and oil pressure. Warning lights for critical systems.
Cruise Control:
Not typically found on tractors of this era/class, but specialized attachments might exist. Manual covers standard operator controls.
Diagnostic Ports:
May include diagnostic ports for electronic systems or engine monitoring, detailed in the service manual.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250 hours or annually. Exact interval specified in the operator's manual.
Hydraulic Oil Change:
Typically every 1000 hours or annually. Filter replacement often at 500 hours.
Engine Oil Type:
API CJ-4 or CK-4 rated diesel engine oil, SAE 15W-40 recommended for most temperatures. Check manual for specific viscosity and capacity.
Hydraulic Fluid Type:
Case IH HY-TRAN™ UTTO (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) or equivalent meeting specifications like John Deere J20C/J20D. Capacity around 9-12 gallons.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene Glycol based coolant with corrosion inhibitors. Typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Check manual for Case IH specific coolant part number.
Electrical Connections:
Corrosion or loose connections in wiring harnesses can cause intermittent issues. Manual provides troubleshooting steps.
Hydraulic Leaks:
Wear in seals and O-rings of hydraulic components can lead to leaks, requiring component disassembly as per manual guidance.
Transmission Clutch Wear:
Depending on transmission type, clutch packs or synchros can wear with heavy use, necessitating service outlined in the manual.
Case Ih Legacy:
Case IH has a long history in agricultural machinery, known for robust and reliable equipment.
C Series Placement:
The C Series tractors are typically part of Case IH's compact to mid-size utility tractor lineup, evolving from earlier models.
Production Years:
Specific production years for the C80 need verification, but likely late 1990s to early 2000s, potentially updated or rebadged in later years.
