Battery location The battery on the Case IH Magnum 260 tractor is located on the right side of the tractor frame, above the front axle
Battery replacement steps To replace the battery on a Case IH Magnum 260 tractor, first disconnect the battery terminals, starting with the negative terminal, then remove the battery hold-downs and lift the battery out.
