    Case 135 tracks

    if you have access to one use a plasma cutter. It works faster than a torch and the heat affected zone is alot smaller than a torch.

    Case 580G???

    interesting, it says its 73hp, not 63hp. Is there a place where I can find the other specifications I was looking for? What about fluid requirements, only in a manual I presume?

    1988 Case model#1845 questions
