Horsepower:
Nominal 90 horsepower (approximate, exact PTO horsepower may vary)
Torque:
Specific torque figures dependent on the exact engine model, but designed for robust agricultural duty.
Injection Type:
Common Rail Diesel Injection (CRDI) or electronically controlled direct injection systems, depending on emission standards and year.
Type:
Liquid-cooled with a radiator, fan, and water pump
Oil Type:
API CJ-4 or CK-4 rated diesel engine oil, SAE 15W-40 or 10W-30 recommended based on ambient temperature. Refer to manual for exact specification.
Filtration:
Dry-type air filter with pre-cleaner, typically a cyclonic separator.
Emission Control:
May include Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) for Tier 4 models, or simply muffler for earlier configurations.
Type:
Mechanical Synchromesh transmission with powershuttle or fully synchronized gearbox. Common configurations include 12 forward + 12 reverse speeds (e.g., 12x12). Some models might offer 24x24 with a creeper range.
Powershuttle:
Electro-hydraulic powershuttle lever for forward/reverse direction changes without clutching, enhancing maneuverability.
Pto Options:
Standard 540 RPM PTO, with optional 540/1000 RPM PTO or ground-speed PTO on certain models.
Transmission Oil Type:
UTTO (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) or equivalent specification fluid. Refer to manual for precise brand and viscosity grade (e.g., CASE IH TRACTOR HYDRAULIC FLUID).
Length:
Approximate overall length: ~3.7 - 4.0 meters (145-157 inches), varies with configuration.
Width:
Approximate overall width: ~1.8 - 2.0 meters (71-79 inches), varies with tire size and configuration.
Height:
Approximate overall height (to top of cabin/ROPS): ~2.4 - 2.6 meters (94-102 inches), varies with cab/ROPS.
Operating Weight:
Approximate base operating weight: ~3,000 - 3,500 kg (6,600 - 7,700 lbs), excluding ballast and front loader.
Max Allowable Weight:
Typically around 5,000 - 6,000 kg (11,000 - 13,200 lbs), consult specific model documentation.
Rollover Protection:
ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) standard, with optional FOPS (Falling Objects Protective Structure) on cab models. Compliant with relevant safety standards.
Braking System:
Hydraulically activated wet disc brakes for reliable stopping power.
Differential Lock:
Rear differential lock for enhanced traction in slippery conditions.
Lighting:
Work lights, turn signals, and brake lights for visibility and road safety (where applicable).
Seatbelt:
Seat belt for operator safety within the ROPS structure.
Cab Features:
While primarily a work machine, later models with cabs might feature basic radio/entertainment systems, climate control (HVAC), and enhanced ergonomics.
Instrumentation:
Digital and analog gauges for engine RPM, ground speed, fuel level, engine temperature, and warning lights for critical system diagnostics.
Telematics Options:
Not typically standard, but some modern configurations might offer basic telematics or GPS integration for fleet management or precision farming features.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250 or 500 operating hours, or annually, whichever comes first. Consult manual for specific interval.
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Recommended at engine oil change intervals, or as needed based on fuel quality and operation.
Air Filter Service:
Check and service air filter element regularly, replacement as needed based on operating conditions. Daily inspection is recommended.
Hydraulic Oil Change:
Typically every 1000 operating hours or every two years. Filter replacement should be more frequent.
Engine Oil Capacity:
Approximate capacity: 8-10 liters (8.5-10.6 US quarts), refer to manual for exact capacity and fill level.
Hydraulic Oil Capacity:
Approximate capacity: 35-45 liters (9-12 US gallons) for the hydraulic system, check dipstick/sight glass.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol-based antifreeze/coolant, 50/50 mixture with distilled water. Refer to manual for specific coolant concentration and type (e.g., OAT or HOAT).
Common Wear Items:
Clutch wear, hydraulic pump efficiency degradation over time, potential electrical connection corrosion in humid environments.
Engine Performance Slight Decline:
Gradual loss of power can be attributed to fuel system issues (injectors, filters), air intake restrictions, or turbocharger wear.
Importance Of Filtration:
Regular replacement of engine oil, hydraulic oil, and fuel filters is crucial to prevent premature wear and component failure.
Manufacturer:
Case IH, a division of CNH Industrial, with a long-standing history in agricultural machinery manufacturing.
Jx Series Lineage:
The JX series represents a line of versatile utility tractors, often built on platforms shared with or developed from previous international tractor designs (e.g., historically related to Steyr or International Harvester designs), focused on reliability and cost-effectiveness.
Production Years:
The JX series, including the JX90, was produced from the early 2000s through to the mid-to-late 2010s, evolving with emission standards and technology updates.
Manufacturing Locations:
Globally manufactured, with significant production facilities in Europe (e.g., Italy, Turkey) and potentially other regions depending on the specific model year and market.
