Engine horsepower 105 hp | 78.3 kW
Engine displacement 5.9 L | 358 cu in
Capacity note For the Case IH 1056 XL, the listed cooling system capacity is 3.2 gal | 12 L. Buy slightly more coolant than the exact capacity so you have enough for topping off after air burps out.
Mixture note 50/50 antifreeze and water.
Radiator cap note The radiator cap pressure listed for the Case IH 1056 XL is 13 psi | 90 kPa. Do not replace it with a random cap unless the pressure rating matches.
Refill note Refill slowly, run the tractor until warm with the heater circuit open if fitted, let it cool, then recheck the coolant level. Never remove a hot radiator cap under pressure.

Case IH 1056 XL Coolant FAQs

How much coolant does a Case IH 1056 XL take?

The Case IH 1056 XL takes 3.2 gal | 12 L of coolant. That is on the low side for the utility tractor benchmark, which makes the refill cheaper, but the level still needs to be checked after the first heat cycle.

Is 3.2 gal | 12 L a small coolant capacity for a Case IH 1056 XL?

It is low compared with the benchmark on this page. That makes the job cheaper, but it does not make coolant choice or bleeding less important.

How many coolant jugs do I need for a Case IH 1056 XL?

This is a manageable refill amount. A 3.2 gal | 12 L system needs about 4 one-gallon containers if you are using premixed coolant. If using concentrate at a 50/50 mix, plan on about 1.6 gal of concentrate and 1.6 gal of distilled water. In metric terms, that is roughly 3 x 5 L containers for a full premix refill.

Can I mix coolant types in a Case IH 1056 XL?

Because the listed coolant is extended-life OAT coolant, the clean move is to stay with the same approved chemistry. Do not casually mix it with old green conventional coolant; if the old coolant type is unknown, flush first or confirm what is already in the system. The listed mix is 50/50 antifreeze and water, so do not run straight water except as a short emergency move.

How much concentrate and water does a Case IH 1056 XL need?

With the listed 50/50 antifreeze and water mix, a full 3.2 gal | 12 L refill works out to about 1.6 gal of antifreeze concentrate and 1.6 gal of distilled water. If using premix, do not add extra water unless the product label says to.

Can I use a different radiator cap on a Case IH 1056 XL?

The listed cap pressure is 13 psi | 90 kPa. That higher-pressure cap helps raise the boiling point, but only if the radiator neck, hoses and overflow path are in good shape. A weak cap or damaged seat can still cause coolant loss.

Official information note

Mistakes do happen. Coolant specs can change by year, engine, market, radiator option and coolant chemistry. Check the operator manual, parts book and official caseih.com website before draining, flushing or refilling the cooling system.
