Among the more than 250 parts for the Case IH Puma 230 you are likely to find what you need, including trailer couplings, electrics and lighting.
Contractors and farms that pull heavy trailers with a Case IH Puma 230 from the Puma CVX line will know where the wear shows: the hitch, the seat and the engine bay. More than 250 parts are listed for this tractor.
For coupling up there are automatic drawbars, top drawbars, automatic hitches, Piton Fix and height adjustable adapter plates from Scharmüller, ROCKINGER and Sauermann among others. Rail width and hole pattern decide whether an adapter plate or drawbar fits, so measure both on your own tractor first.
Under the hood you will find fan clutches, alternators, idler pulleys for the belt drive, oil pressure switches and sensors such as the transmission oil temperature sensor. Gas struts hold the hood open.
Replace an idler pulley together with the belt. Spin the old pulley by hand before removing it. If you hear rumbling or feel play, it was on its way out and would soon have damaged a new belt. When swapping a hood gas strut, prop the heavy hood securely, so it cannot drop unexpectedly.
Long days call for a decent seat. There are GRAMMER tractor seats such as the air suspended Maximo Dynamic, and a PROBOSS seat with seat heater. Mirrors for the Puma 230 CVX and LED work lights are listed as well.
An oil pressure switch that makes the warning light flicker while the actual pressure is fine is a familiar fault. If in doubt, check the pressure with a separate gauge, and if the reading is good, replace the switch. Use a new sealing ring and do not overtighten it, as the housing is delicate. The transmission oil temperature sensor can also give odd readings when its plug is dirty, so clean the contacts first.
An air suspended seat that slowly sinks lower is losing air at the bellows or the seat compressor. Check the air connection and the seat heater plug before fitting a new seat. LED work lights need little care beyond a clean lens and a firm mounting, so tighten the bolts well and leave some slack in the cable.
Read the type plate to confirm you have a Puma 230. An alternator, sensor or fan clutch almost always carries a number you can compare with the details of the item.
The Case IH Puma 170 from the same line has its own page, useful if you run both. For every other model of the make, go to Case IH onderdelen.
