The lineup changes by model and market: the current US page lists models from 200 to 405, with different horsepower ratings, transmissions and traction configurations. For buyers and owners, the key is to check the exact model, year and country rather than treating “Magnum” as one fixed specification.
What is the Case IH Magnum Series?
Case IH describes the Magnum as a tractor series for high-horsepower agricultural work. The manufacturer dates its launch to 1987, calling it the first all-new machine produced through the combined engineering of Case and International Harvester. Case IH’s timeline also notes that the MX Series Magnum was named Business Week’s new product of the year in 1998, and that the company marked the Magnum’s 25th anniversary in 2012. These are manufacturer-reported milestones. Case IH history timeline
Which Magnum models are listed in the current US range?
Case IH’s US lineup page, reviewed in 2026, lists the Magnum 200, 220, 240, 265, 295, 325, 355, 385 and 405. The company describes the range as 200–405 HP, but that span is not a single comparable measure for every tractor. Horsepower labels, equipment and configurations depend on model. Case IH US Magnum Series
For example, Case IH’s current US product information lists the Magnum 240 at 240 rated horsepower, with a 6.7-liter engine and 205 PTO horsepower. It lists the Magnum 405 at 405 horsepower, non-boosted, and 352 PTO horsepower. These are manufacturer specifications, not independent test results; do not substitute one horsepower measure for another.

How do Magnum configurations vary?
Transmission
Case IH offers PowerDrive or CVXDrive on selected US models; its US page shows CVXDrive as standard on the 240. Availability is model-dependent, so check the specific tractor’s specification sheet rather than assuming either transmission is offered throughout the range. Case IH US Magnum Series
Wheels and Rowtrac
The US page describes wheeled options and Rowtrac configurations on selected higher models. In Europe, Case IH describes wheeled and Rowtrac versions and identifies Rowtrac availability on the 385 and 405. That European information should not be taken as a guarantee of availability in another country. Case IH Europe Magnum Series

Hydraulics and hitch

What should you compare when choosing a Magnum?
Start with the job and the exact tractor being considered. The series name alone does not establish whether a particular machine has the power, transmission, traction or implement connections needed for an operation.

- Engine and emissions generation: Identify the engine and applicable emissions equipment for the specific year and market.
- Transmission: Check whether the selected tractor has PowerDrive or CVXDrive and whether that option suits the work.
- Traction configuration: Confirm whether it is wheeled or Rowtrac and whether that version is offered in your market.
- Implement requirements: Match hydraulic flow, remote-valve count and hitch capacity to the equipment you plan to use.
- Technology and support: Check the precision-technology and connectivity package, as well as local dealer service and parts availability.
Case IH’s product pages describe options but do not determine which configuration is best for a particular farm or contracting operation. Compare the selected tractor’s specification sheet with the work and implements it will actually handle.
Where can owners find manuals, parts and support?
Case IH’s US Magnum page links to operator-manual resources, an official parts store and dealer support. The manufacturer’s listed service and parts categories include filters, fluids, manuals, parts diagrams, paint and batteries. Use the exact tractor model, year and serial information to check fit before ordering a component or manual; a generic Magnum listing does not establish compatibility. Case IH US Magnum Series

If looking at a third-party manual listing, verify that its edition covers the tractor’s exact model and year; availability and fit of any particular listing are not established here.
