Case IH MaxxFarm 40-50 Common Problems This Manual Covers
Case IH Maxxfarm 40 engine hard to start in cold weather, cranks slowly or not at all p. 99
Check each glow plug with a multimeter — resistance should read 0.55Ω per plug (page 228). If a plug reads open or significantly higher, replace it. Verify glow plug current draw at 4.4A per plug during the 15-second preheat cycle (page 99). Inspect battery voltage under load; a weak battery won't sustain the starter draw needed for cold diesel ignition.
Manual Section: Electrical SystemEngine overheats, coolant full but temperature gauge climbs to red p. 74
Remove the thermostat and test it in a water bath with a thermometer: it must begin opening at 76.5±1.5°C (170±2.7°F) and reach full lift above 8mm at 90°C (194°F) per page 74. If the thermostat fails to open or does not reach the specified lift, replace it.
Manual Section: Cooling SystemFrequently Asked Questions
What are the torque specs for the engine bolts on Case IH Maxxfarm 40?
The manual provides specific torque specifications for various engine bolts. For instance, the cylinder head bolts (M12 x 1.75) should be tightened to 12.0±0.5 kgf·m (87±4 lbf·ft) or 118±5 N·m. The connecting rod cap bolts (M10 x 1) require a torque of 5.5±0.5 kgf·m (40±4 lbf·ft) or 54±5 N·m.
What are the torque specs for the axle mounting bolts on Case IH Farmall R47?
The torque specifications for front axle bolts vary by component. For example, the fixing bolt for the knuckle arm should be tightened to 9.5 ~ 11.0 kgf·m. The reamer bolt requires a torque of 13 ~ 15 kgf·m, and the fixing bolt for the king pin case should be tightened to 12.0 ~ 13.5 kgf·m.
What are the replacement specifications for O-rings for hydraulic stacks?
The manual provides O-ring specifications for the steering unit, which is a hydraulic component. These include O-rings with an inner diameter (I.D.) of Ø47.2x Ø3.5, Ø9.3xØ1.8, and Ø7.6xØ1.8. When installing, ensure to use the correct size for the specific location, such as the two O-rings (I.D: Ø7.6 X Ø9.0) on the check seat.
What are the replacement specifications for Thermostat?
The thermostat specifications indicate that the valve should start opening at 76.5±1.5°C (170±2.7°F). The valve lift should be more than 8 mm (0.3 in.) at 90°C (194°F). If the thermostat does not open to the correct lift, it should be replaced.
