Case 580E Construction King
Model Year: 0
Loader with Gannon box, great pulling and dressing power so long as the power shuttle is working properly. Suffered several set backs while working on power shuttle, but once repaired the tractor was back at 100% capability. Can only say that while I considered selling the tractor during the troubled times with shuttle problems, I wouldn't consider letting it go now. Anyone considering purchasing a similar unit should make sure that they work it until it gets good and hot before they make the purchase. The power shuttle seems to fail at higher temperatures if it is weak. If the seller or dealer is unwilling to allow you to work the tractor, under load, for upwards of an hour before purchase, don't buy it. There is a good chance that the unit you are looking at has a similar problem to mine and will fail on you in the middle of a job.
Pros: Good power and great capability for its size.
Cons: Power shuttle can be troublesome unless built correctly.
