The Magnum 215 is a tractor from the Case IH MAGNUM series, offered in a four-wheel-drive variant. As part of the Magnum family, which was introduced in 1987 and entered series production in 1988, this model shares its basic technical structure with other models in the range. The series replaced the International 50 and consistently uses turbocharged six-cylinder engines. The model numbering reflects the power level, while all units are built on the same base platform.
Technically, the tractor is powered by a six-cylinder engine with a displacement of 8,275.5 cm³, providing a PTO power of 175 hp at a rated speed of 2,000 rpm. The engine is equipped with a wastegate turbocharger featuring air-to-air cooling. The empty weight of 12,020.2 kg ensures high stability and traction, which is particularly advantageous for heavy soil cultivation work. The 18-speed powershift transmission with 18 forward and 4 reverse gears allows for fine adjustment of travel speed to various field operations. The lift capacity of 6,382 kg and a pump flow rate of 166.6 l/min permit the use of large mounted implements and hydraulically controlled tools.
Within the MAGNUM series, the Magnum 215 ranks 11th out of 31 models with specified empty weights. The next smaller model is the MAGNUM 340 at 11,380 kg, while the next larger model is the Magnum 290 at 12,428.4 kg. The weight is practically identical to that of the MAGNUM 280 CVX and the Magnum 245. The entire series spans an empty weight range from 7,525 to 14,741.8 kg.
Case IH Magnum 7100 and 7200 — the big six, built 1988 to 1999, 110 to 296 kW and Operating Weight from 7,525 to 13,426.3 kg
The Magnum was presented in 1987 as successor to the International 50 in the standard tractor role; series production began in 1988. The first range carried the numbers 7110, 7120, 7130 and 7140 — four large tractors, later joined by a fifth model.

What they share is the engine: a turbocharged six-cylinder of 8.3 litres. Rated power across the range ran from 155 to 230 hp, with peak output reaching up to 246 or 264 hp at the top. The rising number therefore maps the power step, not the machine size — all models share the same base tractor.
In 1997 the 7100 range became the 7200, again with five models, the 7250 closing it at the top. The Pro designation marks the revised version. Later came the MX Magnum range, with which Case IH carried the visually ageing concept forward.
For the used market this means a 7120 and a 7220 are closely related but roughly a decade apart. Comparing two offers, do not look at the number alone but at year and version — the figure describes a position in the range, not the age of the machine.
With rated outputs of up to 296 kW, the most powerful Magnum models reached ISO 730 Category IV for the rear three-point hitch, while the smaller versions stayed within Category III; a standard dual-speed power take-off at 540 and 1,000 revolutions per minute served heavy tillage implements.

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.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
