New Case IH Farmlift 626: Greater Capabilities In A Compact Handler Package

27 November 2024, Austria: Case IH is strengthening its Farmlift telescopic loader range by launching a new particularly compact Farmlift 626 that offers increases in manoeuvrability, accessibility and capability compared to its predecessor.

These include higher lift height for greater productivity, a reduced turning radius to make yard work easier, and a lower overall height for better access to low doorways and buildings. This means the Farmlift 626 suits a wide range of applications across livestock businesses and many other enterprises.

Power And Performance

The Farmlift 626 is powered by a 74hp (54.6kW) four-cylinder engine driving through a single-range 30km/hr hydrostatic transmission. A mechanical electro-proportional hydraulic system is powered by a gear pump providing 80 l/min of oil flow at 210 bar pressure. Maximum lift capacity is 2,600kg, while the new model offers 0.22m more maximum lift height than its predecessor, at 5.9m. Headstock rotation on the Farmlift 626 is 155°, for faster unloading.

Dimensions That Help Meet Challenging Circumstances

At just over 4m, the new machine is shorter than its predecessor, yet its 2.525m wheelbase is slightly longer, a combination which helps ensure good stability when handling heavy loads or working at speed. With a reduced outside turn radius of 3.25m, the Farmlift 626 is easier to manoeuvre where yard and building space are restricted. Access to buildings, doorways and gateways is also enhanced by a lower overall height of 1.93m and a 1.89m overall width. Despite the narrow breadth of the Farmlift 626, its 960mm-wide cab is broader than the one on the model it replaces, providing greater operator comfort.

A Range Of New Options

For the first time on a Case IH compact telehandler, the specification can include TMR homologation. If road registration is required, this simplifies the process, and with TMR approval the Farmlift 626 can be factory-fitted with a trailer hitch and hydraulic or pneumatic trailer braking. The optional telematics provides instant identification of location, plus automated monitoring and recording of operating and performance data. Via the Case IH FieldOps™ app, data from the Farmlift 626 and all connected machines in a fleet can be monitored via any online smart device or PC. Further options include carbon filters for the cab ventilation system to protect operator health in particularly dusty conditions.
