Part of the Case Repair Manuals.
This is the complete Case IH factory service manual for the Puma 165, 180, 195, 210, and 225 CVX tractors, 2144 pages from the common rail diesel engine through the cab. It is the same book a Case IH dealer technician works from, with removal and installation steps, engine and hydraulic specifications, torque values, wiring schematics, CVX transmission calibration, and fault code diagnostics, so you can find a fault and fix it yourself instead of guessing.

Case IH Puma 165-225 CVX Common Problems This Manual Covers
CVX transmission will not shift or the clutch engages erratically
The CVX transmission is controlled by clutch solenoids and needs calibration when behaviour drifts. Retrieve any stored transmission fault codes, check the control clutch solenoids that commonly fail, and run the CVX calibration and pressure checks in the transmission section before disassembling the power split unit.
Manual Section: CVT Transmission (CVX)Engine shuts down under load with no warning or is hard to start
On the common rail engine this usually starts at the fuel side. Check the high pressure pump, which is a known failure, along with rail pressure, the injectors, and the fuel filters and lines for air or restriction. Use the engine management fault codes to confirm before replacing the pump.
Manual Section: Fuel and AirHydraulic lift or remotes are slow, weak, or will not operate
The Puma uses a closed centre load sensing system, so a weak variable flow piston pump or a stuck priority valve starves the circuit. Run the hydraulic pressure and flow checks, inspect the pump and priority valve, and verify the load sensing signal before condemning the hitch or a remote valve.
Manual Section: Hydraulics and Three Point HitchFront axle is noisy or the suspended axle rides poorly
Check the MFD front axle differential and planetary oil levels and inspect for seal leaks that run the axle dry. On the suspended front axle, test the accumulator and suspension cylinders and the control valve using the front axle section before replacing suspension components.
Manual Section: Front Axle, Steering and BrakesA warning lamp or fault code appears on the instrument cluster
The Puma uses networked controllers, so read the fault codes from the cluster and match them to the electrical diagnostics. Trace the wiring, connectors, and sensors for the flagged circuit using the schematics before replacing a controller or module.
Manual Section: ElectricalFrequently Asked Questions
What does this Case IH Puma CVX service manual cover?
It is the full factory service manual for the Puma 165, 180, 195, 210, and 225 CVX tractors, 2144 pages covering the FPT common rail diesel engine, fuel and cooling, electrical and controllers, the CVX continuously variable transmission, the front axle, steering and brakes, closed centre load sensing hydraulics, the three point hitch, the power take off, and the cab, with specifications, torque values, schematics, and fault code diagnostics.
Does it cover the CVX continuously variable transmission?
Yes, in depth. The transmission section covers the CVX power split operation, the control clutches and solenoids, the range units, and the calibration and pressure check procedures that the CVX needs when it shifts erratically or throws a fault code.
Does it cover all five models from the Puma 165 to the 225 CVX?
Yes. The specifications and procedures apply across the Puma 165 CVX, 180 CVX, 195 CVX, 210 CVX, and 225 CVX, calling out model differences where they exist in the engine, transmission, and hydraulic sections.
Are wiring schematics and fault codes included, and what format is it?
Yes. The electrical section carries the wiring schematics, controller diagnostics, and fault code procedures. It is the Case IH factory service manual in searchable, printable PDF that downloads instantly after purchase.
