Technical Description
The CASE 721C is a robust wheel loader engineered for demanding construction and material handling tasks. Powered by a turbocharged 6-cylinder Cummins 6T-830 engine, it delivers 152 hp (113 kW) net power at 2,200 rpm and 165 hp (123 kW) gross power, with a maximum torque of 525 lb-ft at 1,300 rpm and a 41% torque rise for enhanced performance. The loader features a 4F/3R proportional transmission with electronic control module, torque-sensing autoshift/manual shift, and modulation for smooth, efficient operation. With an operating weight of 29,630 lbs (13,440 kg) and a static tipping weight of 23,221.3 lbs (10,533 kg), it provides excellent stability and lifting capacity. The hydraulic system includes a dual vane-type tandem pump, offering a flow capacity of 18.6 gal/min (68 l/min) and a relief valve setting of 2,775 psi, enabling fast cycle times: 5.4 seconds to raise, 5.1 seconds to lower, and 1.8 seconds to dump. The loader’s bucket has a heaped capacity of 2.5 cu yds (2 m³) and a struck capacity of 2.2 cu yds (2 m³), with a width of 8.6 ft (2 m) and a breakout force of 35,005 lbs (15,878 kg). Key dimensions include a length with bucket on ground of 22.7 ft (7 m), a height to top of cab of 10.7 ft (3 m), and a wheelbase of 9.6 ft (3 m). The machine is equipped with 20.5-25 L3 tires, a 24V electrical system, and a 53.9 gal (201 l) fuel tank. Additional features include a 24° rear axle oscillation, a turning radius of 17.3 ft (5 m), and generous fluid capacities for engine oil, hydraulic system, transmission, and cooling.
