The engine has 4,501.5 cm³, a turbocharger with air-to-air intercooler and, per Ritchie Specs, makes 150 hp, 161 hp maximum. Hydrostatic drive, a cab height of 3,413.8 mm and a wheelbase of 3,569.2 mm characterise the machine.
At 140.52 in the wheelbase is longer than on the smaller WD 1203 at 134.61 in. The length is 23.38 ft with header and 16.86 ft without, the height 11.2 ft; the weight without header lies between 11,680 and 12,470 lb. On the road up to 19 mph is possible, the tank holds 120 gallons, and there is a tank for 19 gallons of urea solution.

Case IH Swather: WD-series windrowers from WD 1203 to WDX 2302 with Case IH FPT engines, 4,502 to 7,500 cm³ displacement, four- to six-cylinder
Case IH builds self-propelled windrowers (swathers) in the WD range, which cut grain, grass and oilseeds and lay them into windrows before a combine picks them up. The WD designation stands for Windrower Drive, the four-digit number gives the machine size; suffixes such as Series II or Tier 3 Canada mark model revisions or the emissions stage certified for the Canadian market, while WDX marks the newest generation. The machines are powered by Case IH FPT engines, the product of CNH Industrial's in-house engine manufacturing (Fiat Powertrain Technologies).

The register lists here 12 versions from four- to six-cylinder engines of 4,502 to 7,500 cm³ displacement.
Windrowers such as the WD range are chiefly used in North America, where canola, lentils and other oilseeds are wilted and windrowed ahead of threshing to better control harvest timing and grain moisture; Case IH competes here mainly with John Deere, New Holland and MacDon.
For a used purchase, check the condition of the cutting mechanism and knife bar, the function of the windrow canvas or auger, the tightness of the hydraulics for header tilt and ground following, and the operating hours and service condition of the FPT engine; spare parts run through the Case IH dealer network. On the Tier 3 Canada versions, it is also worth checking the exhaust aftertreatment components, whose wear varies considerably with service history.
