Description
When your trusty old IHC starts cranking slower on cold mornings or sounds like it’s struggling to turn over, don’t start shopping for a replacement tractor just yet. These classic Case workhorses have decades of good work left in them – they just need a starter that can handle their high compression engines. This MAHLE 3.0KW gear reduction starter brings back those instant starts you remember from when your tractor was new.
What You’re Getting
- Gear reduction design provides more cranking torque while drawing less current from your battery
- 3.0 kilowatt motor delivers the power needed for reliable cold-weather starts
- 10-tooth pinion gear engineered specifically for Case IH flywheel engagement
- Left-hand mounting configuration matches original factory installation
- MAHLE quality construction ensures years of dependable service
Built for Real Farm Work
These Case IH 695, 885, 895, and 995 series tractors are the backbone machines on thousands of farms. Your 885 might be the one that handles all the loader work, moving hay bales and feed bunks year-round. That 995 could be your primary field tractor, pulling cultivators in spring and discs in fall. These tractors were built when horsepower meant something, and they’ve got the compression to match – which is exactly why they need a starter with real cranking power.
Made to Last
The gear reduction design is perfect for these older Case engines that might have a few hundred thousand hours on them. As compression builds up and rings wear over the years, direct-drive starters struggle more with each passing season. This MAHLE starter uses gear reduction to multiply torque while actually being easier on your electrical system than the original starter. Heavy-duty construction handles the vibration and heat cycles that come with decades of farm work.
Installation Notes
This is a direct bolt-on replacement for your original starter – no modifications needed. The gear reduction design will sound different than your old direct-drive starter, with a higher-pitched whine during cranking that’s completely normal. While you’re installing, it’s worth checking your battery cables for corrosion and making sure your battery is in good shape – even the best starter can’t overcome weak electrical connections.
