The MX 240 is part of Case’s MX tractor series and was built during the stated production period. It is a high‑power field tractor delivering 246 PS (180,9 kW) at a rated speed of 2 000 U/min with a displacement of 8 268 cm³. The six‑cylinder engine is paired with a gearbox offering 18 V/4 R and 24 V/6 R options and allows a top speed of 40 km/h. With a length of 5 640 mm, width of 3 048 mm, height of 3 249 mm and a wheelbase of 3 006 mm, the tractor has stable dimensions, while the empty weight of 9 414 kg and a Cat III lift category provide robust pulling and working capability. The fuel tank holds 600 l and the pump speed is 540/1000 U/min.
In operation the 246 PS output enables the MX 240 to handle heavy implements such as mulchers, ploughs and sprayers without difficulty. The high torque at 2 000 U/min gives sufficient drawbar pull at low speeds, and the 40 km/h maximum speed facilitates rapid field‑to‑field travel. The relatively high empty weight reduces soil pressure, which is advantageous on wet ground, and the overall size contributes to good stability while driving.
The MX 240 is suited for tasks that demand strong drawbar pull and wide working widths, for example direct‑seed or plough work on medium to large farms. Its combination of a powerful engine, durable gearbox and large fuel capacity makes it appropriate for long work periods without frequent refuelling.

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.
