The J.I. CASE Signature backhoe loader brings a distinctive look to the popular 580 Super N model in celebration of the work and ingenuity of CASE founder.
CASE Construction Equipment is offering crews a new way to distinguish themselves on the jobsite with the release of a rare, limited edition 580 Super N Construction King backhoe loader that commemorates CASE’s history of innovation. Hitting select CASE dealers in December 2024, the J.I. CASE Signature Edition backhoe loader adds a new look to the 580 Super N model, a machine known as a reliable performer on the jobsite.
“The 580 Super N backhoe loader has always been an iconic machine in terms of jobsite performance. Now, we’re giving it an iconic jobsite presence with this signature edition,” said Terry Dolan, vice president — North America, CASE Construction Equipment. “Who says your workhorse machine can’t also be a show horse?”
Limited in production to only 50 machines, the 580 Super N backhoe loaders feature a metallic silver and dark gray color scheme, the throwback CASE “tread” logo, an air-suspension seat with special upholstery and individually numbered badge plates that bear the signature of CASE founder Jerome Increase Case.
The emblematic styling nods to a rich, 180-plus year history of groundbreaking innovation at CASE. The company pioneered a wide range of road construction equipment and was the first to introduce a factory-integrated backhoe loader in 1957. CASE was also the first company to commercially release an electric backhoe loader, the 580EV, which came out in 2024.
The 97-horsepower J.I. CASE Signature Edition backhoe loader matches the industry-leading breakout forces and speeds of the standard 580 Super N and offers the same features like four-wheel-drive, PowerLift and Extendahoe technology, ProControl swing dampening and ECO Mode for fuel savings. Different configurations are available with PowerDrive Powershift or Power Shuttle transmission options and pilot or the popular CASE foot swing controls.
“We’ve designed this machine to celebrate the ingenuity and work ethic of the man who started it all for this company,” Dolan said. “It’s an ethos we carry on to this day and we want to commemorate him with a machine that delivers both standout performance and presence on the job.”
