Case IH Farmall 40A Attachments & Implements

The Case IH Farmall 40A is a 40 HP compact tractor producing 32 PTO HP through a 540 RPM PTO, with a Category 1 hitch and a 3-point lift capacity of 1433 lb. Below: every attachment in our database checked against these specs.

Engine horsepower: 40 HP

3-point lift capacity: 1433 lb
Class: Compact
Series: Farmall A Series

Shares its 3-point hitch specification with the Farmall 35A; the brochure publishes one hitch specification spanning both models.

On the lift figure: Case IH publishes two 3-point figures for this tractor and they do not agree on basis. The brochure specification table gives a Hitch Lift Capacity of 1,808 lbs (820 kg) and a Lift Capacity at Ball End of 1,433 lbs (650 kg), but a ball-end figure is measured at the lift point and should be the larger of the two, not the smaller. Case IH dealer literature reproducing Case IH's own copy states the 1,433 lb figure as measured 24 inches behind the pin, which is the basis this site compares implement weights against, and the ratio between the two figures is consistent with that reading. We use the 1,433 lb figure because it is the conservative one either way, and we record 1,808 lbs as the at-pin figure. We do not attest the basis, because the only manufacturer document we have read labels it differently. Confirm the rating against your operator's manual before buying a heavy implement.

Attachment fit for the Farmall 40A is decided by four of these figures: hitch category, PTO horsepower, PTO shaft speed, and implement weight against the 1433 lb three-point lift rating. Implements rated for sub-compact tractors also fit, with capacity to spare. Front-mount attachments require a loader, which this record does not list. Every figure above is read from manufacturer documentation, linked on the page.
