Case IH 533 to 933 (1985–1990) – the Neuss utility tractors of the first Case IH years: the final digits 33 as series, the first digit as size class, A for four-wheel drive, V for the vineyard version

The 33 series is the last tractor generation from the IH plant in Neuss on the Rhine that continued under the new name Case IH after the merger of Case and International Harvester in 1985 – the successors to the 55 series (633 to 1055) with which Neuss had served the German market since the 1950s, until Case IH closed the plant in 1997. The type logic: the final digits 33 mark the series, the first digit orders the size in ascending order – 533 about 45 hp, 733 about 60, 833 about 70, 933 about 80 hp – A four-wheel drive, V the vineyard version (V533) about 1.17 metres wide. The engines are IH's own three- and four-cylinders from Neuss – D-155 of 2.5 litres, D-179 and D-206 of 2.9 and 3.4 litres, D-239 of 3.9 litres – at 2,180 to 2,300 rpm, water-cooled with direct injection; the transmissions were synchromesh gearboxes with eight or sixteen speeds, the cabs the versions with roll bar or comfort cab, as the register distinguishes in the weights.

The register lists 5 versions with 33 to 53 kW from three- and four-cylinders of 2,536 to 3,911 cm³, unladen weights from 1,800 to 2,770 kg depending on roll-bar or cab version, lengths from 3,285 to 3,570 mm, widths from 1,168 to 1,990 mm and heights from 2,208 to 2,450 mm.

The 33s are still numerous at work on grassland and part-time farms in Germany, Austria and France – simple, repair-friendly tractors whose Neuss engines are regarded as particularly long-lived; the successors 3200 and 4200 came from Doncaster.

On used tractors, operating hours, engine condition and injection pump, clutch and gearbox, four-wheel-drive clutch on A models, hydraulics, cab and sheet metal count; parts run through Case IH and Neuss specialists and are inexpensive.

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.
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.
