David Brown / Case

In 1939, the era of the red Case tractors began. Significant steps were also taken in the design, including a curved grille in front of the radiator. The C model was replaced by the D, and the CC by the DC. The engine power was mainly increased by raising the engine speed. Both gasoline and kerosene versions were available. The number of gears was increased to four, so the highest gear was already sufficient for highway driving, since the maximum engine speed was 1550 rpm. The brakes were now oil-bath disc brakes, and power steering brakes were available as an option. In 1950, hydraulics were introduced in the D series, and in 1952 a lift equipped with a draft control system and a liquefied petroleum gas version were introduced. Both the hydraulics and the power take-off were independent of the clutch.

A year later, an updated version of the L model, the LA, was introduced. The engine's compression ratio was raised, and lubrication improved. There were four gears as standard, and the electrical system was available for an additional cost. Fuel options included kerosene, gasoline, and liquefied petroleum gas.

In 1941, the S model and its row-crop version SC were introduced below the D in the lineup. These replaced the R model, which had an outsourced engine. The new engine was 2.5 liters and primarily a gasoline version. This model also had four gears. The 1953 models featured an enlarged 2.7-liter engine.

There are quite significant differences in the reported power ratings. The LA model's power as a gasoline version was 55 hp both in the USA and in Finland. In Finland, the S-ex model was rated at 30 hp for the gasoline version and 27 hp for the kerosene version. For the D-ex, correspondingly, 40 hp and 37 hp. The export market ex-versions included, among other things, power steering brakes and a padded seat.

The stylish 90 series was introduced at the end of 1979. The 885 was replaced by the 1190, the 990 by the 1290, and the 996 by the slightly more powerful 1390. The smallest model in the series was rear-wheel drive, while the larger ones also had an all-wheel-drive model equipped with a Carraro front axle. The technical changes were less extensive than the still modern-looking exterior would suggest. The transmission was partially synchronized, and the hydraulic output and lifting capacity were modest. The use of Selectamatic hydraulics was simplified. The cab was still manufactured by Sekura but met the requirements of the 1980s. A larger fuel tank than before was placed under the cab on the left side. All models were equipped with dual clutches. Surprisingly, the 1190 had 12-inch clutch plates, while the 1290 and 1390 continued with 11-inch ones.

From 1983 onwards, the larger models’ well-known Hydra Shift transmission was also made available for the 1390, but only for the rear-wheel-drive model.

For the year 1983, the tractor brand also changed to Case in Europe.

The successor to the earlier 1200 model was the 1210, equipped with a partially synchronized transmission. At the end of 1974, a turbocharged 1410 was introduced above it, featuring oil-bath disc brakes and more powerful hydraulics. In Finland, the cabin was mostly the Taavi model, and partially the Swedish Klippan. The steering in these models was hydrostatic. In 1977, the cabin was replaced with a factory-installed, flat-floor Sekura. At the same time, the pedals were changed to a dependent type. The diameter of the dual clutch in models 1210 and 1410 was 305 mm, as in later models as well. In 1977, 4-wheel drive models were introduced in Finland too; these had been in the production program since the end of 1973. Smaller models had DB's own front axle, while the 1410 featured a German Kramer axle.

The four-speed Hydra Shift quick transmission was launched in 1972. It was only available for rear-wheel-drive models. Hydra Shift was introduced in Finland only in 1976. Based on two consecutive planetary gearsets, the Hydra Shift was ahead of its time, and among current four-speed quick transmissions, it only falls short in that after changing direction, movement always starts at the smallest gear of the selected range. Of course, similar systems had already appeared in large tractors in the USA in the 1960s.

At the end of 1965, David Brown Implematics were replaced by white Selectamatics. The new series got its name from the upgraded hydraulics, which offered adjustment of working depth, position control, and use of external hydraulics with a single control lever. The smallest model in the lineup was the 36-horsepower 2.4-liter 770. Of the models imported to Finland, the 990’s 3.0-liter engine remained unchanged, but the 880’s displacement had increased to 2.7 liters. The SAE horsepower ratings in Finland were 48.5 and 58 hp. The power take-off also featured a 1000 rpm speed. The 990 had an 11-inch clutch instead of 10 inches. AS models featured a dual clutch allowing for a power take-off independent of the clutch and had 12+4 gears. The basic gearbox’s lowest speed was quite high. A problem with the lifting device was the small lifting range.

In spring 1967, the flagship of the lineup was introduced: the 67-horsepower (71 SAE) 1200 Selectamatic. The 3.6-liter four-cylinder engine had the same cylinder dimensions as the 3-cylinder 880. The transmission was more robust than that of the smaller models. The dual-clutch plates were 11 inches and power was controlled by a hand lever. Unlike the smaller models, the hydraulic pump was independent of the clutch. A dual pump was available for the hydraulics, increasing flow from 22.7 liters to 52 liters. The 1200’s power was increased by five horsepower the following year. Another new model in 1967 was the 780, in which the 2.7-liter engine from the 880 was installed in the lighter structure of the 770. The 780 was also not imported to Finland. In 1970, four-wheel-drive versions of the 990 and 1200 were introduced, but these were not imported to Finland either.

The first David Browns brought to Finland were the Cropmaster model manufactured between 1947 and 1953. Its successor, the updated 25, was introduced in 1953. The power of these models was approximately 37 hp for the gasoline version, and about 30 hp for the petrol version and the direct injection diesel version. The 25 featured a simple power take-off system, a 2-speed PTO, and a foot throttle. The transmission was 6+2, as in later models as well. In addition to these models, a 15-horsepower utility machine carrier, the 2D, was sold here. On the other hand, the more powerful version of the 25D, the 30D, and especially the 6-cylinder 50-horsepower 50D remained rare in Finland.

The first model in the Case letter series was the L, introduced in 1929. It was designed to compete with the very successful John Deere D model. Besides plowing tasks, its use included driving a threshing machine via a belt pulley. The 6.6-liter, 4-cylinder petrol engine produced 45 horsepower. The final drive was implemented using roller chains. There were three gears, and the clutch was a manually operated, oil-bathed 2-plate clutch. In 1934, pneumatic tires became available. The industrial model LI featured steering brakes, 4 gears, and electric start.

A few months later, a smaller model C was released, designed for a 3×14" plow. The technical solutions were exactly the same, but the tractor was overall scaled down. However, the brake on the C was manually operated. The engine was 4.25 liters, and the power take-off output was rated at 27 horsepower. The Nebraska test measured 29.8 horsepower. A parallel model to the C was the row-crop model CC, offered in two versions. The 3-wheel version had the front wheel positioned in front of the front, and the 4-wheel version featured a wide, adjustable-width front axle. Steering brakes were standard on the CC. Optional equipment included power take-off, electrical system, and pneumatic tires. Starting in 1935, a manually operated lifting device became available. Other parallel models to the C included the orchard version CO and the industrial model CI.

Case acquired the French SFV Vierzon tractor manufacturer in 1958. Production in Vierzon initially continued with the old half-diesel models, and the tractors’ color changed from green to Case’s yellowish hue. The final models were the Super 204 and 403D, introduced in 1961. 

At the 1962 SIMA show, Case unveiled the CF 250 and CF 350—models partly based on American technology and equipped with French 1.8-liter Indenor diesels. At the same time, the Vierzon plant began assembling the American models 530, 630, and 730.

Both the CF 250 and CF 350 featured an 8+4 gearbox, a dual-clutch system, and a weight-transfer system. Each was also offered in a high-ground-clearance version (48 / 54 cm). In 1967, Case introduced a further developed version of the CF 350, the CF 400.

In 1935, Case introduced the RC as the smallest model in its lineup, a single-wing plow-pulling, row-crop tractor equipped with adjustable track widths. Both 3-wheel and 4-wheel versions were available. The engine chosen was a 2.4-liter Waukesha gasoline engine producing 18 horsepower. It had three gears, and the clutch was hand-operated, oil-bath type with two plates. Standard equipment included, among other things, a power take-off, steering brakes, and pneumatic tires. In 1936, the standard model R was also introduced.

Many changes were made to the R and RC models in their later years. They received a new series-appropriate red color and a cast iron grille, a 4-speed transmission, an electrical system, and a hydraulic lift.

Case bought the Rock Island Plough Co company in 1937 and ceased its tractor production. However, the factory developed a small tractor, among other things, to compete with the Allis-Chalmers B. Case decided to bring this tractor to the market. Unlike other Case tractors, the V model introduced in 1940 was assembled from purchased parts. The engine was a 2.1-liter gasoline engine from Continental, and the transmission was from Clark. Thus, the final drive was implemented with gears instead of chains as in other Cases. The V came standard with electric start, but starting was problematic due to a poor magneto.

To improve the profitability of the small tractor, Case decided to independently develop an improved version of the V model. At the end of 1941, the VA was introduced, which had Case’s own engine and transmission. However, in the early years, the engine was manufactured at Continental’s factory. The VA’s frame had the same tubular structure as the Allis, and Case had to pay royalties for this. Unlike other Cases, the VA had a single-plate dry foot clutch and a foot throttle. There were many different versions of the VA for various uses. In 1948, a three-point hitch was added to the VA. Shortly after, the Eagle Hitch system, equipped with draft sensing that was also introduced in other Case models, was designed so that the draft arms did not move sideways. Furrowing while turning was made possible by a slight tilt.

In 1955, Case introduced a whole series of new tractor models. In the three-digit model numbering system, the first number indicated the appropriate number of plow wings, the middle number indicated the fuel type (0=diesel, 1=gasoline), and the last number indicated the design: 0 was the general-purpose model, 1 was the row-crop model, and 2 was the version with high ground clearance. In the 3-wheel row-crop model, the front wheels were now under the front end instead of at the front.

The 300 models had a 2.6-liter diesel engine manufactured by Continental. The base price included 4+1 gears. For an extra cost, you could get a splitter or a Triple-Range version, which had three ranges. The brakes consisted of two discs. An optional feature was a power take-off independent of the clutch pedal. Approximately the same could also be achieved with the hydraulic hand clutch, included as standard equipment, which allowed starting and shifting gears without using the foot clutch. There was a rather comprehensive instrument panel behind the steering wheel. Starting was done via an ignition key.

The 400 models had Case's own engine. There were eight gears. The power transmission was handled by gears, and the 400 no longer had a hand clutch. The electrical system was 12 volts. The seat was spring-mounted with rubber suspension. The hand clutch was only available as an option. Power steering and a power take-off independent of the clutch pedal were also available.

The first model introduced in the new series was the 500, the successor to the LA model. The 500 was equipped with a 6-cylinder diesel engine. Power steering and a rubber-suspended seat were standard equipment. In the USA, it was a fairly new feature to start the diesel engine with an electric starter instead of an auxiliary engine. As an optional extra, a power take-off that could be engaged with a separate switch was available. The 500 was quite successful, but the 4+1 transmission did not meet expectations. For the year 1957, an updated version called the 600 was introduced, with power increased to 70 horsepower and 6+1 gears.

The color scheme was updated for 1957: the engine hood was yellowish, and the frame was a deeper shade of red.

Dawid Brown’s 2D row-crop tractor was introduced in 1956. It was powered by a 2-cylinder, 4-stroke, air-cooled diesel engine producing 14.5 hp. The gearbox offered 4 forward gears and 1 reverse, and the top road speed was only 15 km/h. A lifting device mounted under the tubular frame in the center of the tractor was operated by an air compressor. At the rear there was a mechanically operated tow hook. Optional equipment included a rear three-point linkage and a power take-off shaft. The track gauge was adjustable from 100 to 173 cm. Plowing capacity was rated at 1 hectare per 8-hour day using a single 14″ plow.

In 1956, David Brown introduced the 900, equipped with a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine as the successor to the 25D, which was known in some countries as the 40D. Its power output in diesel was 40 hp. The fuel system was based on a distributor pump. A dual clutch was available as an option. The frame and control arms were stronger than those of previous models, and the wheelbase was longer. This model suffered from reliability problems.

In 1958, alongside the 900, a 45-horsepower 950 was introduced. Apart from a reinforced frame, increased power, and improved steering, the technology was almost unchanged. Similar upgrades were also made to the 900. In the 950, the rims and grille changed from gray to yellow. The following year, the 950 was replaced by the 950 Implematic, which featured a more advanced power take-off system. At the same time, a smaller 850 Implematic was introduced alongside it. These models were equipped with a differential lock. The base model of the 850 had some equipment trimmed, such as the instrument cluster and foot throttle. In the USA, the 850 and 950 were known as the Oliver 500 and 600.

In 1962, the updated models 880 and 990 were introduced. The 880 initially had a 4-cylinder engine (43 hp). In 1964, it was replaced by a 2.5-liter 3-cylinder engine (48.5 hp). The 990 had a power output of 55 hp. The range of motion of the lifting device was wider than before. From 1963 onwards, a 12+4 transmission was available as an option, with the lowest gear speed at the level of a crawl gear. At the same time, the 990 was updated: the wheelbase was extended, the front axle was strengthened, the battery was moved forward, and the hydraulics were improved. In 1964, the lineup was complemented by the 35-horsepower 770, which featured Selectamatic hydraulics from the start, a system that was introduced to the other models only a year later.

In the renewed Case B series, the 6-cylinder 900 replaced the previous 600. There were few technical changes compared to earlier models. In the 4-cylinder 700 and 800 models that replaced the 400 model, the novelty was the hydraulic Case-o-matic quick shift in the 800 model. A new model option was the Western Special, which differed from the Standard model, among other things, by having wide fenders and a wider cab floor. The General Purpose versions included a 3-wheeled, a 4-wheeled with parallel front wheels, and a 4-wheeled with a wide, adjustable front axle.

Case 700-900

Here is the translation to English:

**Case’s rounded front was changed in 1958 to a more angular shape, and the headlights were positioned higher up. Model numbers in the range 200…900 were introduced, even though the power classes corresponded to the previous 300…600 models. For example, the new 600 had 44 horsepower, while the previous one had 70 horsepower. The middle number was still 0 for diesel models and 1 for gasoline versions. Officially, the new models had a B after the model number, but in marketing, only the round hundreds were used. Most of the small models are therefore 210B…611B models — diesels were very rare in the smaller models.**

**The 400 and 600 models had a hydraulic Case-o-matic quick-shifter; otherwise, they corresponded to the 300 and 500 models. The road speed in the 300…500 models was quite brisk. All models had a 12-volt electrical system (2 pcs 6-volt batteries), and starting was done with an ignition key. The hydraulic lifting device was the earlier type Eagle-Hitch.**

Case 200-600

The Case 30 series was started by the 930 model equipped with a 6.6-liter six-cylinder engine in 1959. The following year, four-cylinder models were introduced. The 430 had a 2.4-liter gasoline or 3.1-liter diesel engine, the 530 had a 2.6-liter gasoline or 3.1-liter diesel engine. The diesel engine in the 630 was the same size as in the smaller models, the 730 had a displacement of 4.4 liters, and the 830 had 4.9 liters. All models except the 930 were also available with gasoline engines, and the 730 to 930 models could be equipped with LPG engines. According to official tests, the small diesels were cited as the most economical on the market.

The basic transmission in the smaller models was 4+1. The next option was the 8+8 Shuttle, in which the reverse speeds were 25% faster than the corresponding forward gear. The Tripl-Range transmission had 12+3 speeds. In this version, the road speed for the 530 was as much as 36 km/h instead of 22 km/h. The larger models were slower. The basic transmission in the 730 and 830 was 8+2, and the 930 had 6+2 gears.

There was a jump in engine weight from the 2100-kilogram 630 to the 2800-kilogram 730. From the 730 upwards, the Case-O-Matic torque converter was available, which allowed all gears to be selected without using the clutch. The first version of the system was introduced in 1956.

In 1962, the 930 Comfort King was introduced, which had a foot clutch instead of a hand clutch in the Case-O-Matic, and the fuel tank was moved to the rear. In 1964, the Draft-O-Matic draft control system was introduced, based on sensing the pull arms.

In 1966, the first over 100 hp two-wheel-drive Case was introduced at the top of the line — the 1030 Comfort King. It had a cab appearance similar to later Agri King models. The transmission had 8 speeds and the PTO (power take-off) speed was only 1000 rpm.

In 1969, Case introduced the large 70-series Agri King models to replace the 30-series models. However, the two smallest models were transferred to the 70 series with much smaller changes. Even the appearance was almost unchanged. The wheelbase was extended. The road speed had dropped significantly compared to before. The basic transmission was still a 4-speed, with a large gap between 3rd and 4th gear. The maximum speed in 3rd gear was 10.5 km/h, and in 4th gear, at 1000 rpm, the speed was already 16 km/h. As an option, an 8+2-speed gearbox or an 8+8 shuttle gearbox was available. Models equipped with a wide front axle featured hydrostatic steering. Alongside the 3.1-liter diesel, 2.4- or 2.6-liter gasoline engines were offered.

Case 470-570

In Finland, American Case tractors remained unknown, as they were considered too large for the local markets. In Case's production lineup, following the American tradition, there were rear-wheel-drive tractors as well as over 200-horsepower four-wheel-drive models with four-wheel steering, where all the wheels were the same size.

The first models in the Agri King series introduced in 1969 were the 770, 870, 970, and 1070. The three smallest ones, the 4.1-, 5.5-, and 6.6-liter models, along with the 1170 introduced a year later, were discontinued after Case acquired David Brown in 1972. The remaining models were the 1070 and, from 1972 onwards, the 1175, 1270, 1370, and from 1976 the 1570 (190 hp). Starting with the 1270, the transmission was more robust and the brakes were oil-immersed.

The Agri Kings featured direct injection diesel engines as a novelty. Most models had an alternative option of a gasoline engine, though gas engines had been abandoned. The transmissions available were either an 8+2 or a 12+3 with a 3-speed partial powershift. The transmissions were synchronized except for the range shift. The Agri King cab was considerably advanced and better soundproofed than earlier models. The steering was hydrostatic, and the hydraulic system was load-sensing. Tractor colors were standardized with David Brown in 1974, changing the base color from yellowish to white. The legendary special edition is the star-spangled Spirit of ’76, made in honor of the United States’ 200th anniversary celebrations.

In Finland, there were also attempts to sell the 1270 model, which had an SAE power output of 163 horsepower. Elsewhere in Europe, the 1370 (196 hp SAE) and 970 (93 hp) models were also known. Their engines were 7.4 and 8.3 liters, respectively. In Europe, the transmission was a 12+3 gearbox, and air conditioning was standard equipment.

Case 770-1570 Agri King

In 1964, Case introduced its first four-wheel-drive tractor, the 1200 Traction King. All the wheels were the same size, but unlike its competitors, the Traction King was articulated rather than frame-steered. Its engine was a 7.4-liter turbocharged unit, and its power take-off delivered 120 hp. Steering was hydrostatic and the brakes were hydraulically operated.

In 1969 the 1470 Traction King was unveiled, featuring four-wheel steering as a new option. The tractor was still available with two-wheel steering at a price that was 800 dollars lower. The engine was now a direct-injection 8.3-liter unit, and the transmission offered 8 forward and 4 reverse gears. The cab was still largely made of sheet metal.

In 1971 the 1470 was replaced by the redesigned 2470 Traction King, rated at 213 hp (SAE), which retained the same 8.3-liter engine and added a 12+4 partial powershift gearbox. In 1974 the model range was joined by the intercooled 2670 (256 hp SAE), and in 1977 by the 11.0-liter 2870 (300 hp SAE). The 2870’s engine was manufactured by Scania.

On the base model only the front wheels were steerable. In Europe four-wheel steering was standard; its operating modes are shown in the illustration. The high-spec cab’s noise level was 81–83 dB. The three-point hitch was upgraded to Category III, although only about 30–40 percent of the four-wheel-drive tractors were sold with the hitch installed. In 1974 the yellow paint was changed to white and the orange trim to red.

Case 1470-2870 Traction King

In 1971, the 770, 880, and 990 Selectamatic models introduced in 1965 were replaced with improved versions 775, 885, and 990. Above these came the more powerful 995 and 996. The main differences in the 996 compared to the 995 were a dual clutch and a manually operated independent power take-off. The frame was extended by 8 cm due to the consecutively positioned clutches. Hydrostatic steering was also introduced to the 995 with the launch of the 996. The 775 model was sold mainly in Germany. The 885 was shorter than its predecessor, the 880, and was based on the core technology of the earlier 780.

Selectamatic hydraulics with push-rod sensing were already familiar from earlier models. The transmission was now partially synchronized (Synchromesh). A drawback of the transmission was the large gap between the two highest gears. On the other hand, there were plenty of low gears. All models had a 2-speed power take-off. Like DB models, except for the 996, the clutch was a dual clutch, which required the tractor to be stopped when engaging or disengaging the implement. In the 885, the clutch disc diameters were 254/254 mm, in the 990-995 models 279/254 mm, and in the 996 the dual clutch was 279/279 mm. Four-wheel-drive models equipped with Italian Selene axles were not imported to Finland. The cabin was either a Swedish Klippan or a Taavi manufactured by the Ylö factory in Finland. The heater was an optional extra. An alternating current generator was introduced in 1973.

The Secura cab was significantly quieter than before, but otherwise its integration into the DB was not accomplished in the best way. One of the problems was, among other things, attaching work machines to a cabin positioned too far back. The external hydraulic control valve became standard only in 1978.

At the end of 1978, the USA switched to the 90-series. The fiberglass hood was styled in a sleek, angular design. The rear-wheel-drive models were the 2090 (120 hp), 2290 (139 hp), 2390 (171 hp), and 2590 (191 hp). All models were powered by Case’s 8.3-liter engine, turbocharged on all but the smallest. Transmissions remained 8+2 and 12+3. The cab’s noise level was only 75.5–77 dB. Most of the controls were hydraulically operated. The closed hydraulic system, Con Trol, was more efficient than before.

Case 2090-2590

Four-wheel drive models 4490 (194 hp), 4690 (233 hp), and 4890 (273 hp) equipped with four-wheel steering from the 90 series were introduced for the year 1980. Unlike most of their competitors, the Cases were not frame-steered but featured automatically coordinated four-wheel steering. This solution was justified by, among other things, better maneuverability and greater stability on slopes.

The engines were the same as in the preceding models. The two smaller models had Case’s 8.3-liter engine, and the largest one had Scania’s 11-liter engine. The updated Con Trol hydraulics were equipped with single-lever control.

Case 4490-4890

At the larger end of the 90 series, there was more newness compared to the smaller models. The 6-cylinder 1690 was an entirely new model. It featured the more powerful hydraulics known from the earlier 1410, equipped with two external hydraulic control valves and a lift auxiliary cylinder, as well as a new free-breathing engine. The 1690 was the best-selling tractor over 100 hp in Finland. The 1490 was less turbocharged than the earlier 1410 but was characterized by a more durable transmission.

For some reason, the 1490 had hydraulics that were quite modest in power compared to the smaller models. However, unlike the smaller models, its brakes were oil-immersed disc brakes. The cab noise of the 90 series approached 85 decibels, but otherwise, the cab with its curved glass was more modern than before. The rear-wheel drive models could be equipped with the Hydra Shift transmission. There is quite a variety of information regarding the top speeds from the Finnish importer and international sources, as well as in other DB series.

From the beginning of 1983, the brand of the tractors was Case. At the same time, the 1690 received a turbo and draft sensing on the lift arms.

David Brown / Case 1490-1690

The 94 series was introduced in the USA for the year 1984, just like in Europe. The power classes were the same as in the 90 series, but a four-wheel-drive 170-horsepower 3294 was added alongside them. Four-wheel-drive versions were also available for the 2094 (121 hp) and 2294 (141 hp) models. The four-wheel-drive models used a Carraro front axle. The standard transmission was still a 3-speed powershift, but models 2394 and 2594 could also be equipped with a 6-speed powershift, which doubled the number of gears to 24+3. The 94 series especially focused on cabin ergonomics and electronic monitoring functions. A wheel slip sensor was available as an optional accessory.

For the year 1985, the tractor brand in the USA also changed to Case IH, and the color changed to red and black. In the fall of 1987, the now well-known 7000 series Magnum models were introduced.

Case / Case IH 2094-3294

In the summer of 1984, the Case 1896 and 2096 were introduced, sized between the European and American Case models. The tractor had a short but tall structure. The engines were turbocharged 5.9-liter units developed in collaboration with Cummins, also used in the Maxxum. The transmission was equipped with a 3-speed power shift. The cab was the 2094 series Silent Guardian, and radar-equipped slip control was available as an optional extra. To engage or disengage the four-wheel drive, the tractor had to be stopped, and the front axle hubs extended well beyond the width of the tires. For the year 1985, the tractor brand in the USA also changed to Case IH and the color scheme switched to red and black.

Case / Case IH 1896-2096

In the spring of 1984, the updated 94 series models replaced the 90 series. In the 94 series, the tractor frame had been changed to black, but the striping was given a red color. The 1394 received a turbocharger, and its power increased by 6 horsepower. Ergonomics in the cab were improved, and the upholstery color changed to gray. The clutch was self-adjusting, except for the 1194 model. Otherwise, the technology remained almost unchanged. The tractor was equipped, among other things, with Selectamatic hydraulics and a 12+4 gearbox.

At the end of 1984, Case's owner Tenneco acquired International Harvester's agricultural machinery production. The first effects on the tractors were seen at the end of 1985, when the colors of both brands changed to red and black, and the brand was renamed Case International. The smallest models were removed from the 94 series, leaving the 1394-1694 models. In Finland, all tractors were imported with the HS transmission except for the 1394, which was also available with a traditional transmission. In the autumn of 1986, the transmission gear ratios were thinned by 10% to increase highway speed.

Case / Case IH 1194-1394

In the revised 94 series, the Hydra Shift transmission was available for the first time in all-wheel drive models. The power of the 1694 was increased, and a new naturally aspirated 6-cylinder 1594 model was introduced. Both the 1594 and 1694 featured draft sensing. Otherwise, the updates to the 94 series mainly involved minor improvements to the cab. The steering pump was more powerful, and the steering valve was placed outside the cab. The cab's air intake was moved to the side of the hood, and the fuel filler cap was relocated to the front of the cab. An air conditioning unit was now available as a factory-installed option, as was a creeper gearbox. A dual hydraulic pump was standard equipment in some versions.

At the end of 1984, Tenneco, the owner of Case, acquired International Harvester's agricultural machinery production. The first effects on the tractors were seen at the end of 1985 when the colors of both brands changed to red and black, and the brand name became Case International. The smallest models were dropped from the 94 series, leaving only the 1394–1694. All tractors imported to Finland were equipped with the HS transmission. In the autumn of 1986, the transmission gearing was spaced out by 10% to increase road speed.

Case / Case IH 1494-1694

The all-wheel drive models 4494 (194 hp), 4694 (236 hp), and 4894 (305 hp), introduced in spring 1984, received a new cab compared to the 90 series. Otherwise, the technology remained mostly unchanged. Alongside the earlier models, a new 4994 (400 hp SAE) equipped with a 14.2-liter Scania V8 engine was introduced, featuring a new 12-speed full powershift transmission. These models also included highly developed electronics. For example, the powershift control and traction resistance sensing were operated electronically. Traction control was available as an optional extra.

The red Case IH tractors had more powerful hydraulics and, in the models imported into Europe, an 8000 kg lifting capacity.

Case-based four-wheel-steered large tractors were discontinued after Case IH acquired Steiger, based on which frame-steered Case IH 9100 series tractors were produced.
