Operators have long known that Maxxum and Puma series tractors offer unmatched in-field versatility. Now, upgrades to Model Year 2022 Maxxum tractors equipped with MultiControl armrests and Puma 150/165 tractors will put operator comfort and convenience front and center for even greater flexibility. Updates include a low-mount wiper, new steps, new monitor bars and rearview mirrors, enhanced safety lighting, and more.

“When it comes to getting the most out of every moment in the field, operator comfort is second to none. Maxxum and Puma series tractors are already known for their convenient designs and features that make in-cab comfort a priority. These new upgrades will further ensure that operators are able to work comfortably and productively regardless of field conditions,”

said J.E. Cadle, Case IH mid-range tractor marketing manager.

A suite of comfort- and productivity-boosting upgrades

Nothing slows productivity down like an uncomfortable operator experience. The new Maxxum and Puma series tractor comfort updates were designed with operators in mind. The updates include a host of convenient features that — taken together — lead to increased productivity out in the field. Features such as a premium leather-wrapped steering wheel and in-cab cool box keep operators comfortable during long days, while enhancements such as LED safety lighting, new sleek rearview mirror, and low-mounted front wiper make for greater visibility for out in the field.

The full list of updates to the Model Year 2022 Maxxum and Puma series tractors includes:

• Low-mount front wiper for maximum visibility
• In-cab cool box for increased operator comfort
• New aluminum steps
• New monitor bar with USB outlets for convenience
• New rearview mirror for better field of view
• New battery cutoff switch located outside the door
• LED beacon lights for greater visibility in all field conditions
• Elastic hood closing rope
• New advanced loader joystick with reverser

Enhancements build on 2021 improvements

In 2021, select Maxxum and Puma series tractor models were equipped with additional safety, convenience, and comfort updates to improve efficiency out in the field. These updates — which include a redesigned hood for Puma series tractor models 150 and 165, improved lighting to create a uniformly lit work area, and Hi-eSCR2 emissions technology for longer service intervals and enhanced fuel economy — were driven by customer input that has helped operators achieve greater in-field precision while remaining comfortable in the cab.

“Every enhancement we’ve made has been driven by what producers want and need from their equipment. We’re excited to build on these design upgrades in the years to come,”

Cadle said.

Case IH is launching enhancements to its Puma series tractor lineup to provide operators with greater efficiency, convenience, and operational flexibility. These updates include longer service intervals and new styling features for greater productivity and a more comfortable in-cab experience. Case IH announced updates to Puma models 185 to 240 in October 2020 — and now Puma models 150 and 165 incorporate these productivity-enhancing updates.

“Producers need innovations that help them get more done in less time — and this Model Year 2021 Puma series tractor lineup will help them do just that. Puma series tractors have always been recognized as multipurpose machines built to provide a wide range of efficient solutions. Now, with longer service intervals and improved styling based on customer feedback, the new Puma models will provide operators with even greater productivity,”

said J.E. Cadle, mid-range tractor marketing manager.

Longer service intervals, less fuel

Case IH Hi-eSCR2 emissions technology offers producers greater productivity with reduced fuel, improving engine responsiveness and durability while lowering emissions. All Model Year 2021 Puma series tractor models deliver longer service intervals for maximum uptime: 750 hours for engine oil and 1,500 hours for transmission fluid.

“Our new Hi-eSCR2 emissions technology is a game-changer in terms of productivity. With less time spent on maintenance and better fuel economy, these efficiencies can truly help operators save time and money,”

Cadle said.

Styling features designed with operators in mind

Feedback based on extensive customer input has led to new styling features that include an updated hood and enhanced LED work lighting, providing a uniformly lit work area. In turn, these improvements help producers gain in-field precision while remaining comfortable in the cab.

“Customer-oriented updates to Puma series tractors are all about creating an improved operating experience. From better lighting that helps operators stay efficient in all field conditions to a redesigned hood that maximizes visibility, these improvements will provide operators with the tools they need to get the job done comfortably,”

Cadle said.
