strated the ability to operate and service this machine cor-
rectly and safely.
This Operator’s Manual is to be stored in the manual com-
partment behind the operator’s seat in the vehicle. Make
sure this manual is in good condition. Contact your dealer
to obtain additional manuals.
Your dealer will instruct you in the general operation of
your new equipment. Your dealer’s staff of factory-trained
service technicians will be glad to answer any questions
that may arise regarding the operation of your machine.

Tractor intended use
Steiger, Quadtrac and Rowtrac series tractors with
standard equipment and authorized attachments, are
intended to be used for customary farming, land leveling
and related agriculture operations (intended use). This
tractor is not intended for forestry use or for use with
loaders. The cab on this tractor does not offer sufficient
protection for forestry work.
Installation of utility (dozer) blades, tile plows, front load-
ers or push bars on the tractor is not approved. Any trac-
tor damage resulting from the installation and/or use of
such equipment is not covered by the tractor warranty.
Consult an authorized dealer or CNH Industrial America
LLC on changes, additions or modifications that can be
required for this machine to comply with various regula-
tions and safety requirements. Unauthorized modifica-
tions will cause serious injury or death. Anyone mak-
ing such unauthorized modifications is responsible for the
consequences.
Do not use this machine for any purpose or in any man-
ner other than as described in the manual, decals, or
other product safety information provided with the ma-
chine. These materials define the machine’s intended
use.
Use in any other way is considered as contrary to the
intended use. The manufacture accepts no liability for
any damage or injury resulting from this misuse and these
risks must be born solely by the user.
Compliance with and strict adherence to the conditions of
operation, service and repair as specified by the manufac-
turer also constitute essential elements for the intended
use.
All persons who will be operating this machine shall pos-
sess a valid local vehicle operating permit and/or other
applicable local age work permits.
This tractor must be operated, serviced and repaired only
by persons familiar with all its particular characteristics
and acquainted with the relevant safety rules (accident
prevention).
The accident prevention regulations, all other gener-
ally recognized regulations on safety and occupational
medicine and the road traffic regulations must be ob-
served at all times.
Any arbitrary modifications carried out on the tractor will
relieve the manufacturer of all liability for any resulting
damage or injury.
ATTENTION: The engine and fuel system on your ma-
chine is designed and built to government emissions stan-
dards. Tampering by dealers, customers, operators and
users is strictly prohibited by law. Failure to comply could
result in government fines, rework charges, invalid war-
ranty, legal action and possible confiscation of the ma-
chine until rework to original condition is complete. En-
gine service and/or repairs must be done by a certified
technician only!

1 - GENERAL INFORMATION
Electro-Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Interference may arise as a result of add-on equipment which may not necessarily meet the required standards. As
such interference can result in serious malfunction of the unit and/or create unsafe situations, you must observe the
following:
•
The maximum power of emission equipment (radio, telephones, etc.) must not exceed the limits imposed by the
national authorities of the country where you use the machine.
•
The electro-magnetic field generated by the add-on system should not exceed 24 V/m at any time and at any lo-
cation in the proximity of electronic components.
•
The add-on equipment must not interfere with the functioning of the on board electronics.
Failure to comply with these rules will render the CASE IH warranty null and void.
