Print Quality Print Readability: Designed for clarity of technical diagrams and part callouts, suitable for printing. Binding Type Physical Binding Description: N/A (Digital format assumed, if printed would typically be spiral-bound or perfect-bound for usability in workshop environments) Paper Type Physical Paper Description: N/A (Digital format assumed, if printed would typically be on durable, possibly coated paper to withstand workshop conditions) ⚙️ Engine Specifications Primary Engine Engine Manufacturer Typical: Likely Case or a well-known diesel engine supplier like Cummins, Perkins, or Iveco (specific to the 856XL model year). Performance Engine Displacement Range: Likely in the 4.0L to 6.0L range, common for utility tractors of this size. Fuel System Fuel Injection Type: Typically direct injection, possibly with mechanical or early electronic fuel pumps. 🔧 Transmission Standard Transmission Type Common: Mechanical gearbox with multiple forward and reverse gears, potentially with a synchronized shuttle or powershift options. Optional Optional Transmission Features: Could include powershift, creeper gears, or specific PTO (Power Take-Off) options. Features Clutch Type: Typically a single or dual-plate dry clutch. 📐 Dimensions Exterior Wheelbase Typical: Variable depending on specific configuration, but generally within 2.2 - 2.5 meters for a tractor of this class. Weights Operating Weight Approximate: Likely in the 4,000 - 6,000 kg range (unballasted). 🛡️ Safety Features Ratings Rollover Protection Structure: ROPS (Roll-Over Protective Structure) is standard for operator safety. Active Features Braking System Type: Wet disc brakes, hydraulically actuated. Passive Features Operator Station Safety: Includes seat belt, safety guards on PTO and driveline components, and warning lights. 💡 Technology Features Infotainment Operator Comfort Features: Basic operator station with controls, seating, and potentially a basic HVAC system (depending on trim/options). Driver Assistance Traction Control Availability: No advanced electronic driver assistance systems typical of modern vehicles; relies on mechanical features like diff-lock. Connectivity Telematics Integration: Not applicable for this model; prior to widespread telematics integration in heavy machinery. 🔧 Maintenance Service Intervals Engine Oil Change Interval: Typically 250-500 operating hours, depending on operating conditions and oil specification. Manual will detail exact intervals. Hydraulic Filter Replacement: Typically recommended at major hydraulic service intervals or annually, coinciding with hydraulic fluid changes. Fluid Specifications Engine Oil Type Recommendation: API CG-4 or CH-4 rated diesel engine oil, SAE 15W-40 is common. Manual will specify viscosity and API rating. Hydraulic Fluid Specification: Typically a high-quality tractor hydraulic fluid (THF) or UTF (Universal Tractor Transmission Oil) meeting specific CASE specifications (e.g., MS-1209, MS-1210). Transmission Fluid Type: Specific transmission fluid or UTF as per manufacturer specification for the gearbox and final drives. Known Issues Common Wear Items: Clutch wear, hydraulic pump performance degradation, injector wear, and cooling system leaks are common on tractors of this age and type. 📚 Vehicle History Brand Heritage Case Construction Equipment Legacy: Case Corporation has a long history in heavy equipment, including agricultural machinery, dating back to the 19th century. Model Evolution 856Xl Series Context: Part of Case's extensive range of utility and row-crop tractors. Specific model years would need to be inferred or confirmed. Production Manufacturing Locations Typical: Likely produced in Case manufacturing facilities in North America, Europe, or other global locations depending on the specific year and market. 🏆 Awards & Recognition Recognitions Industry Awards Tractor Segment: Specific awards for the 856XL model are unlikely to be publicly documented in a generalized manner; however, Case tractors have historically received recognition for durability and performance in their respective classes.
