McCormick CMax – the mid all-purpose range from Argo Tractors of Fabbrico: C 90 Max and C 100 Max with a four-cylinder engine, 61 to 68 kW (83 to 92 hp), 4,400 cm³, diesel, length 4,140 mm, width 2,200 mm

The CMax range belongs to the Italian manufacturer Argo Tractors, based in Fabbrico, which has held the McCormick tractor brand since 2000. The CMax sits as a mid all-purpose class between the maker’s compact and large tractors; the number in the name roughly indicates the power class in hp, so C 90 Max and C 100 Max stand for about 90 and 100 hp respectively, while the ‘Max’ suffix marks the equipment line. Both models share the four-cylinder diesel engine of 4,400 cm³.

The register lists 2 versions with 61 to 68 kW (83 to 92 hp) from four-cylinder engines of 4,400 cm³, a length of 4,140 mm, a width of 2,200 mm and a height of 2,450 mm at a rated speed of 2,200 rpm; the unladen weight is 3,550 kg.

In this power class the CMax competes directly with similarly sized all-purpose tractors from other brands and meets the needs of mixed arable and livestock farms that need a manoeuvrable yet capable all-rounder for fieldwork, front-loader duty, feed transport and yard work, without the purchase and running costs of a large tractor.

When buying used, check operating hours and service history of the diesel engine, the condition of clutch and gearbox, the tightness of hydraulics and lift, PTO operation, and rust on the cab and mudguards; parts run through the McCormick dealer network owned by Argo Tractors.

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.
