I am looking at a Case 530 - with Caseomatic transmission. Are parts available? Is there issues with the Caseomatic? All advise is welcome.

Thanks
Dave

The most important part of the CaseOMatic is to KEEP IT CLEAN! Use good fluid and change the filters regularly. Expect some minor gear clash in the summer, and even some really good grinds in the winter, at least until the fluid warms up. This can be helped by idling the tractor down, and shifting into a higher gear first to stop the gears. Do not try and drive it like a regular tractor and feather the clutch to start off, it will not work. It is a spool and does not work like that. Try and drive it like a car. Start at an idle and pop your foot aff the clutch, even use the brakes and gently let off to start smoothly. Throttle up and when the load is moving, LET OFF THE THROTTLE MOMENTARILY and use the direct drive lever to the right of the steering wheel. It will lock the converter and then be a regular tractor. When it is time to turn around at the end of the field, just flip that lever up and use torque converter drive. Basically what you will find is that those who are used to the CaseOMatic like it. I grew up on one and can not get used to a regular tractor. But those that hate it really hate it. Some will combine tractors to get rid of it. Give it a chance and you will probably like it. My tractor in a 1958 and It has never been opened up for work (knock on wood). So it has some reliability.
