Case IH 5240 (DT): four-wheel-drive field tractor with a water-cooled 5,883cc six-cylinder diesel, 79.4 kW and 442 Nm of torque
Case IH was formed in 1985 from the merger of J.I. Case and International Harvester's agricultural equipment division. The 5200 series occupied the manufacturer's upper mid-range segment through the 1980s and 1990s, with six-cylinder engines for heavier haulage work.

The 5240 (DT) carries a water-cooled six-cylinder diesel engine with 5,883 cc of displacement, producing 79.4 kW (108 hp) at 2,200 rpm and delivering 442 Nm of torque. At 4,390 mm long, 2,438 mm wide and with a 2,634 mm wheelbase, the machine weighs 4,590 kg; overall height is 2,715 mm and top speed is 25 km/h.
The DT designation stands for doppia trazione, meaning four-wheel drive, common on this brand's series with Italian roots. With six cylinders, close to 6 litres of displacement and a weight just under 4.6 tonnes, the 5240 belongs to the class of heavy field tractors for ploughing, cultivating and haulage on large farms, where four-wheel drive spreads pulling force across both axles.
When buying a used 5240 (DT), the condition of the front axle and the four-wheel-drive transfer gearbox matters, since these components are under particular strain during towing work at full load. Also worth checking are the clutch, the tightness of the cooling system and hydraulics, and wear on the tow hitch, which carries heavy loads on a machine of this weight class.
