Enhancements to Maxxum and Puma models designed with operators in mind
25 May 2022
Operator comfort and convenience are at the centre of the latest updates to the Case IH Maxxum and Puma ranges.
New Puma SWB models (150hp to 180hp) now feature CVT transmission options to complement the existing Powershift offering. Upgrades to the Model Year 2022 Maxxum and Puma SWB tractors include a low-mounted front screen wiper with an increased sweep area for better visibility; new high-performance LED safety lighting features; an improved entrance area with aluminium steps; and an integrated cool box.
"Obviously when the operator is more comfortable in the cab, this can only help to reduce fatigue and increase productivity in the field," said Seamus McCarthy, Case IH Australia/New Zealand Product Manager for Mid Horsepower & Compact Tractors.
"The Maxxum and Puma are among Case IH's most versatile tractors, and with these upgrades this versatility is enhanced and customer experience improved."
Seamus said a number of standard vehicle modifications were also aimed at providing enhanced performance and connectivity for customers. New electronic joystick and improved telematics with additional display functionality allow greater efficiency and precision.

"Fast and reliable in-field connectivity is critical in realising the full potential of precision agriculture, with a direct result of that being an improvement in the profitability of farming operations, and Case IH is working hard to deliver that potential across our lower horse-power ranges," he said.
"Customer expectations are increasingly high when it comes to the sophistication of their machinery, and the latest updates on our Maxxums and Pumas are an example of listening to our customers and interpreting their needs through the new features."
Other updates to Model Year 2022 Maxxum and Puma SWB series tractors include:
- New monitor bar with USB outlets for convenience
- Gas strut covers at the door and rear window
- New rearview mirror for better field of view
- New advanced loader joystick with reverser
