Need a Case 255 service manual pdf with genuine factory depth? This 340-page Case Service Manual (OEM #Rac 8 29210) covers the 245, 255, 245-4WD, and 255-4WD tractors across every system from the crankcase to the hydraulic pump. You get a complete general section right up front: factory specs, greasing diagram, lubrication table, tightening torques, and full wiring diagrams. From there, sections run through engine and fuel system construction and troubleshooting, electrical, front axle and steering linkage, clutch and transmission, brakes, and hydraulic schematics for the full system. On the K3D engine in your 245 or 245-4WD, torque the cylinder head bolts to 11-12 kg-m (79.5-86.8 ft-lb); the 255 and 255-4WD run a K3H that calls for 15-16 kg-m (108.5-115.7 ft-lb). No more hunting spec sheets across three forums. Grab the PDF, search by keyword, and get the right number on the first try.

Manual Section: Engine Troubleshooting p. 43Frequently Asked Questions
How to adjust PTO settings?
To address issues where the tractor does not discontinue when the clutch pedal is depressed, ensure the clutch changeover lever is set in the 'dual clutch' position. This is a mechanical adjustment, and further wire adjustments may be necessary as a remedy for such trouble. p. 236

Inspect the suction lines for air leaks. Torque the hydraulic pump suction pipe A to 1.0 ~ 1.2 kg-m (7.2 ~ 8.7 ft-lb) as specified on page 337. Drain the hydraulic fluid, clean the strainer, and refill with fresh oil to eliminate trapped air. p. 337
How do you diagnose and fix severe clutch slippage and loss of ground speed on inclines?
Remove the inspection cover to evaluate wear. Measure the clutch disc diameter. Replace the disc if it falls below the standard 200 x 140 mm (7.87 x 5.51 in.) requirement detailed on page 8. Adjust the linkage free play to restore engagement pressure. p. 8
What should you check when the K3D engine blows white smoke and has extremely low power output?
