EXPERIENCE GIVES YOU THE EDGE

Continuously-variable power

Case IH developed the four-range continuously variable design in the mid 90s - the first tractor manufacturers to do so. Over two decades of experience have let our engineers improve and expand upon this innovation.

INTUITIVE OPERATION HAS MANY ADVANTAGES

PERFECTLY BALANCED COMPONENTS

With the EcoDrive throttle, the driver can set minimum and maximum engine speed in order to adjust power output to the job at hand. If you are working with a constant speed memory, you can set the right controller to the lowest value that the engine may be reduced to. If the engine RPM drops any lower, APM automatically slows the tractor, saving fuel.

The CVT Drive transmission is one of the most efficient in the industry. The four-range hydro-mechanical design can transfer a high proportion of the engine’s power to the ground, turning energy into work. There are four points of 100% mechanical efficiency, three in the key field working speeds and one aimed at transport work. The sophisticated interplay of the planetary gears, double clutch, four automatically shifting ranges and the hydrostat unit delivers this continuous power from 0 to 50kph.

SAFE AND STRESS-FREE WORK

Active hold control is always a standard feature. It automatically prevents the tractor from rolling on slopes, without needing to activate brakes or clutch. To continue forward, simply push the Multicontroller forward.

A NEW DRIVING EXPERIENCE WITH CUSTOMISABLE TRANSMISSION SETTINGS Case IH software engineers have enhanced the performance and driveability of the CVT Drive with new CVT control features that deliver smoother and more responsive characteristics, increasing uptime in the field. Drivers can change the settings easily and quickly via the AFS Pro 700 display.

INTELLIGENT EFFICIENCY

The APM engine/transmission management system automatically recognises the selected ground speed and adjusts engine speed and gear ratio to maximise performance. The driver need only move the Multicontroller or step on the foot throttle, APM takes care of the rest. For even greater fuel economy, top speed is achieved at just 1,550rpm – perfect for transport work. Puma CVT Drive is also a winner when it comes to slow working speeds, with minimum speeds of 0.02kph.
