The Case IH MX Magnum is a large-tractor range built at the American plant in Racine, Wisconsin. The Magnum designation marks Case IH's powerful standard-tractor line above the Utility and Maxxum classes; the MX type combines with a three-digit power number. The register covers the MX 210, MX 230, MX 255 and MX 285 models with six-cylinder diesel engines.

The register holds 4 versions rated at 147.1 to 211.1 kW (200 to 287 hp), with six-cylinder engines of a uniform 8,268 cm³. Weights range from 9,122 to 11,090 kg, with a gross vehicle weight of up to 14,000 kg. Lengths fall between 5,690 and 5,780 mm, widths between 2,585 and 3,048 mm and heights between 3,150 and 3,240 mm; engine speed is 2,000 rpm.
As four-wheel-drive standard tractors, the MX Magnum range covered the upper power segment for large arable farms, from heavy tillage to haulage work requiring high draft forces. It competed with comparable large tractors from John Deere and New Holland in the same power class.
When buying used, this class calls for checking the engine and injection system, clutch and gearbox, and the four-wheel steering and hydraulic system. Rust on mudguards, cab frame and attachment points, and the condition of the wide tyres, are further checkpoints; spare parts are readily available through the Case IH dealer network.
