Case - IH CS

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Case - IH CS differential fluid capacity ranges from 2,2 liters to 8 liters. Service intervals include checks at 500 hours and changes at 1000 hours or 12 months. The data covers 8 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Case-IH CS 78, CS 86, and CS 94 share a front differential capacity of 5 liters, while the CS 110, CS 120, and CS 130 step up to 6.2 liters, and the CS 150 carries the largest front differential fill at 8 liters across the range.
  • The CS 110 with a front suspension axle specifies a reduced front differential capacity of 2.2 liters, compared to 6.2 liters for the standard front differential on the same model. The suspension axle housing has a different internal volume, which accounts for the lower fill quantity.
  • All models from the CS 110 through the CS 150 carry a dual-interval service requirement: fluid changes are due at 1000 hours or 12 months, whichever comes first. The time-based limit of 12 months applies regardless of accumulated operating hours.
  • The CS 78, CS 86, and CS 94 specify a change interval of 1000 hours without an accompanying calendar interval, unlike the higher-capacity models in the CS range that pair the 1000-hour mark with a 12-month limit.
  • All eight configurations across the CS range share a fluid check interval of 500 hours, set at half the change interval. A mid-interval check at 500 hours allows for early detection of fluid loss or contamination before the scheduled change.
  • The CS 150, with a front differential capacity of 8 liters, holds notably more fluid than any other model in the CS range. Larger front axle assemblies on higher-horsepower tractors typically require greater fluid volumes to maintain adequate lubrication under load.
  • The CS 120 and CS 130 share identical front differential specifications — 6.2-liter capacity, 500-hour check, and 1000-hour/12-month change interval — despite being distinct model designations within the CS series.
  • The CS 110 is the only model in the CS range with a suspension axle variant listed as a separate differential configuration, reflecting a distinct front axle option not specified for the CS 78 through CS 150 models.
