2013-2023 CASE 721B WHEEL LOADER

Technical Description

The Case 721B is a mid-size wheel loader featuring a 6-cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine (model 6T-830) delivering 151.6 gross horsepower and 458.1 lb-ft of torque. This 4-stroke direct injection powerplant operates at 2100 rpm for peak power and 1500 rpm for maximum torque, providing reliable performance for material handling operations. The loader accommodates a 2.75 cubic yard bucket with a breakout force of 27,629 lbs, enabling efficient loading of aggregates and similar materials. Its compact dimensions—measuring 22.9 feet in length, 10.7 feet to cab height, and 8 feet in width over tires—make it suitable for confined job sites while maintaining adequate ground clearance of 1.4 feet. The mechanical transmission features 4 forward and 4 reverse gears with maximum speeds of 22.2 mph forward and 14.2 mph reverse, enabling responsive operation across varied terrains. A hydraulic tandem pump system delivers 57.6 gallons per minute, providing responsive bucket control with dump, raise, and lower times of 1.8, 5.9, and 4.6 seconds respectively. Operating at 24 volts with a 65-amp alternator, the 721B carries a 53.9-gallon fuel capacity and 40.5-gallon hydraulic fluid capacity, supporting extended work sessions. The machine's operating weight of 29,763 lbs reflects its robust construction, manufactured between 1994-1999. This proven design combines efficient power delivery with practical dimensions for general-purpose loading applications.
