Case CE has expanded its range with three new Construction King backhoe loaders, a new 5-ton class mini excavator and an all-new, full-sized wheel loader with enhanced power and versatility. Case is also launching new upgrades to existing machines, including maintenance-free emissions solutions and linkage improvements for compact wheel loaders, and enclosed cab options for Case H Series all-terrain forklifts.

“Labor shortages continue to shrink the workforce, while at the same time companies are challenged to work more productively and more profitably. We geared our latest round of Case innovations toward helping crews maneuver these challenges more effectively and efficiently than ever before.”

says Terry Dolan, vice president – North America, Case.

New Case Backhoe Loaders 

Case is presenting two new models of backhoe loaders that offer side-shift capabilities — letting operators move the boom left or right to work more efficiently parallel to walls or around obstacles.

Previewed at Conexpo, the new 97-horsepower Case 580SV Construction King side shift and the larger, 110-horsepower Case 695SV side-shift and 695SV center-pivot models are now available, in addition to the N Series lineup. The new machines carry over many popular features from the N Series, like ProControl swing dampening, auto ride control and ECO modes for fuel savings, along with upgrades to maneuverability.

“The new side-shift models take the legendary Case Construction King capabilities to new frontiers, putting them smack dab into confined spaces and up next to structures. With a hydraulic side-shift boom and vertical outriggers, these machines can get more done in tight spaces. They also let operators dig rectangular trenches without having to reposition.”

says George MacIntyre, product manager – backhoe loaders.

The Case 580SV side shift features a tool carrier design that improves stability and material retention, while its side-shift configuration and narrow width make for more productive work in confined spaces. Case 695SV side-shift and center-pivot models feature a tool carrier loader arm, allowing them to do double duty as a wheel loader.

Both 695SV models are equipped with 4WD, 4-wheel steer and four equal-sized tires and include a PowerShift transmission. The expanded Case backhoe offering is also compatible with numerous attachments.

New Case CX50D Mini Excavator  

The all-new Case CX50D mini excavator delivers more punch in a compact design. This 5-ton class machine offers greater lifting capacity and better digging performance for jobs that demand more production in shorter time from operators.

The new mini excavator powers a wide range of specialized attachments. It comes standard with multifunctional hydraulics and a second auxiliary circuit, as well as an optional third auxiliary circuit for advanced attachments like tilt rotators and grapples. It also offers another optional dedicated auxiliary circuit to power mulchers. Crews can also improve the safety and efficiency of material handling with the optional Object Handling Kit that includes check valves on the boom and arm.

The CX50D will showcase features like the automotive-style cab, auto climate control with heat and A/C, Bluetooth radio, a five-way adjustable seat and a customizable LCD screen that provides important data on the machine and attachments.

New Case Full-Sized Wheel Loader  

The Case 651G delivers breakout force of nearly 24,000 lbs. and lifting capacity of over 16,100 lbs. The new model also features a larger hydraulic pump for increased cycle times, a curved bucket for better material retention and a higher hinge pin for better dumping clearance.

Case made it easier to manage all the muscle of their new full-sized wheel loader with features like a touchscreen display and adjustable, intuitive electrohydraulic controls that allow the operator to independently set boom and bucket responsiveness to smooth, moderate or aggressive. Operators can weigh loads and track material moved with an integrated onboard scale.

The new Case 651G also has a roomy cab. Features like AC and heat, heated seats, Bluetooth radio and phone connectivity let operators work comfortably, while the rear sloping hood and optional backup camera improve visibility.

“When production demands on difficult jobsites require long days of uninterrupted work, operator comfort is key to productivity for the long haul. We designed this new machine with operators top of mind to provide an experience that’s like taking your office to the jobsite.”

says Neil Detra, product manager – full-size and compact wheel loaders.

Compact Wheel Loaders

Updates to Case F Series compact wheel loader include an elevated driving position, an abundance of curved glass in the cab and four-corner strobe lights ensure maximum visibility on the jobsite, while new Z-bar linkage upgrades let operators push their machine further with maximum breakout force. Case 21F, 121F, 221F and 321F models also feature time-saving, maintenance-free Tier 4 Final emissions solutions that improve uptime by eliminating regeneration and expensive diesel particulate filters.

Control-enhancing features like parallel lift capabilities on Case 21F and 121F models help keep loads stable and allow for better visibility of the coupler during attachment changeouts. Case 221F and 321F models combine auxiliary high-flow hydraulics and a creep speed mode to provide max hydraulic flow at constant speeds for smoother operation of attachments like brooms and snowblowers. All the models also feature improved LCD screens with simplified controls to make operation easier.

Cab Options for Rough-Terrain Forklifts Protect Operators in Tough Conditions 

Case H Series rough-terrain forklifts offer a new factory-designed, built and installed enclosed cab option that protects the operator from the elements and helps teams work in more extreme conditions. With heat, AC and comfort features such as Bluetooth radio and USB charging ports, operators can continue working in sweltering heat or frigid cold. The cab features wide doors that secure completely open — allowing for easy communication with crew and increased airflow. The cab also has an overhead roof window for better visibility to overhead loads.

These highly maneuverable machines feature zero tailswing for close-quarter jobsites and can easily road from jobsite to jobsite with speeds up to 24 miles per hour. They’re also customizable with a variety of mast options that can lift loads up to 8,000 lbs. as high as 22 feet depending on the machine and mast.

“With this latest launch of new machines and enhancements, we took the same approach to practical innovation that we’ve been taking for over 180 years. We listened to our customers’ needs today and looked to where we see the industry evolving, to help them meet their toughest jobsite challenges and improve their business.”

says Dolan.
