The Case IH 5120 MAXXUM belongs to the Maxxum series. Production: 07/1989–07/1997. The engine delivers 90 hp (66.2 kW), has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 3,922 cm³. Torque is 330 Nm. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm. The machine is 4,213 mm long, 2,204 mm wide and 2,695 mm high. The unladen weight is 5,315 kg. The wheelbase measures 2,345 mm. Ground clearance is 467 mm. Top speed is 30 km/h. Transmission: 16 V/12 R and 24 V/20 R. The engine is water-cooled. Tyres: front 13.6 R 28 AS, rear 16.9 R 38 AS. The fuel is diesel. The bore measures 102 mm. The stroke is 120 mm. The compression ratio is 16.5:1. Construction: semi-frame construction. Around 9.046 units were built. The Maxxum series covers 97 models. Rated output within it ranges from 90 to 145 hp; the 5120 MAXXUM sits at the bottom of that range with 90 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 5130 MAXXUM above it with 100 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 4,573.6 to 5,610 kg; here the 5120 MAXXUM sits in the upper part of that range with 5,315 kg. 1222 Case IH models across 76 series are on record.

Case IH Maxxum – One Name for Two Tractor Generations Since 1989, with Four- and Six-Cylinder Engines, 66 to 170 kW and Operating Weight from 4,573.6 to 7,980 kg

Case IH first used the Maxxum name in 1989 for its 5100 series, then revived it in 2007 for a second generation positioned as a mid-range model below the Puma line. These two eras explain the wide spread of the register data: four- and six-cylinder engines with displacement from 3,920 to 7,480 cm³, output from 66 to 170 kW, and PTO ratings from 90 to 120 hp among the recorded models.

Recorded operating weight ranges from 4,573.6 to 7,980 kg, wheelbase from 2,345 to 2,664 mm, and hydraulic lift capacity from 3,406 to 7,864 kg. Top speed spans from 25 km/h on older mechanical versions to 50 km/h on newer CVX-equipped variants.

For buyers, identifying the generation matters most: the 1990s 5100 series is a fundamentally different tractor from the Maxxum built since 2007, which in the current line-up sits above the Farmall range and below the Puma.

With rated outputs from 66 to 170 kW, the Maxxum spans ISO 730 Category II to III for the rear three-point hitch across both generations, with a standard dual-speed power take-off at 540 and 1,000 revolutions per minute. Case IH remains part of the CNH Industrial group today, so spare parts for the engine, gearbox and hydraulics of this series run through the existing Case IH parts network, whichever generation of Maxxum happens to be involved.

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.
