127. RACINE, Wis. T The introduction of the Case IH Magnum™ tractor in 1987
marked a major milestone. The 1988 model year Magnum tractor was the first
designed and produced after the birth of Case IH – the result of J.I. Case and
International Harvester coming together. Since then, Case IH Magnum Series
tractors have delivered producer-driven, proven technology that’s helped
producers Be Ready for 25 years.
“The Magnum Series tractor has set the industry standard as the most powerful
and productive row-crop tractor,” says Dan Klein, Case IH Marketing Manager
for Magnum tractors. “These tractors introduced the red paint that has become
the signature of the Case IH brand. Their cab-forward design and fully
integrated mechanical front-wheel drive (MFD) were examples of International
Harvester’s reputation of innovative leadership. It let customers know that this
new company was off to the right start.”
