Top speed is 30 km/h. The tank holds 948 litres. Transmission: 12 V/2 R. The engine is water-cooled. Tyres: front 20.8-42 AS, rear 20.8-42 AS. The fuel is diesel. The bore measures 139.7 mm. The stroke is 152.4 mm. The compression ratio is 14:1. Maximum torque is reached at 1,300 rpm. Construction: articulated frame. The gearbox offers 12 forward gears. There are also 2 reverse gears. The linkage is category III. The 9100 er-Baureihe series covers 5 models. Rated output within it ranges from 200 to 375 hp; the 9180 sits at the top of that range with 375 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 9170 below it with 335 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 9,140 to 16,140 kg; here the 9180 sits at the top of that range with 16,140 kg. 1222 Case IH models across 76 series are on record.

Case IH 9100 series (1987–1990) – the first Steigers under Case IH from Fargo: 9110 to 9180, the last digits as power step, Case and Cummins six-cylinders of 8.3 to 14 litres, 147 to 276 kW, 9.1 to 16.1 t

The 9100 series was the first articulated-tractor generation Case IH built under its own name at the Fargo plant in North Dakota after the takeover of Steiger in 1986 – the successors to the Steiger models Puma, Cougar, Panther and Tiger with which the prairie maker had built up the articulated-tractor market since the 1960s, now in red and with Case IH nomenclature. The type logic: 91 marks the range, the last two digits the power step – 9110 about 200 hp, 9130 about 235, 9150 about 280, 9170 about 335, 9180 about 375 hp – the versions comprise wheeled articulated tractors on duals or triples. The engines are the Case six-cylinder 6TA-830 of 8.3 litres in the small and Cummins six-cylinders LTA-10 and NTA-855 of 10 and 14 litres in the big models, at 2,100 rpm; the transmissions are 12-speed powershifts or 24-speed synchromesh gearboxes.

The register lists 5 versions with 147.1 to 275.8 kW from six-cylinders of 8,268 to 14,016 cm³, torque up to 1,177 Nm, unladen weights from 9,140 to 16,140 kg, lengths from 6,210 to 7,160 mm, widths from 3,040 to 3,890 mm and heights from 3,290 to 3,870 mm.

The 9100s are the bridge between Steiger and Case IH – the last articulated tractors that carried Steiger designs unchanged under the new badge; in 1990 the 9200 series followed with a revised cab.

On used tractors, operating hours, engine (Cummins parts available worldwide), transmission (powershift clutches), articulation joint and steering cylinders, axles and tyres, hydraulics count; parts run through CNH and Cummins.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
