J.I. Case CF Series – CF-250, CF-350 and CF-400: four-cylinder diesel tractors from 18.4 to 29.4 kW, 1,816 cm³ displacement and 1,600 to 1,790 kg operating weight from Case
J.I. Case is an agricultural machinery maker with roots in Racine, Wisconsin, whose name still stands for rugged farm tractors. Under the designation CF Series, the register lists three versions whose type designations CF-250, CF-350 and CF-400 follow a rising three-digit numbering pattern that marks the size class within the range.

The register lists 3 versions with 18.4 to 29.4 kW rated output at 2,200 to 2,500 rpm. All three models share a four-cylinder diesel engine with 1,816 cm³ displacement. Operating weights range from 1,600 to 1,790 kg, lengths from 2,990 to 3,210 mm with a constant width of 1,640 mm and heights from 1,590 to 1,620 mm.
With this power band, the CF Series counts among the compact utility tractors designed for smaller and medium-sized holdings as well as speciality crops with narrower row spacing. The unchanged engine capacity across all three size classes points to a shared technical base with staged power output.
When buying used, it is worth checking the mechanical injection pump, the condition of the clutch and power take-off, and the hydraulic hoses and pump, which tend to age first on compact tractors of this weight class. Corrosion on wings and stub axles and the function of the brakes should be checked before purchase; wear parts are generally available through the Case dealer network.
