Choose between the efficient 16-speed full power shift transmission, featuring a hydraulic wet disc clutch for smooth, on-the-go adjustments, or the specialized 30-speed creeper transmission for ultra-low speed precision work. Both systems are engineered by Caterpillar, guaranteeing reliability and performance for every application.

Hydraulic Might: Powering Your Implements

Equipped with a potent hydraulic system, the MT745 can handle a vast array of implements with ease. Operating at a robust 2900 psi [200.0 bar], its system provides a generous total flow of 43.5 gpm [164.6 lpm]. With 4 to 6 available valves, you have the flexibility to power everything from the most demanding plows to intricate harvesting equipment, ensuring maximum productivity.

Built to Last: Unwavering Durability and Comfort

The MT745 is a true crawler, featuring a strong mechanical foundation. Its electro-hydraulic steering ensures precise maneuverability, while the wet disc brakes provide reliable stopping power. The standard cab, complete with air-conditioning, offers a comfortable and productive environment for long working days, ensuring operator well-being without compromising on performance. Weighing in at 28,195 lbs [12789 kg], this tractor is built for stability and traction in any terrain.

Ready for Any Challenge: Hitch and PTO Capabilities

Tackle any task with confidence thanks to the MT745's robust rear hitch and PTO system. The Type III rear hitch boasts an impressive lift capacity of 16,000 lbs [7257 kg], ready for your heaviest implements. Complementing this is the independent rear PTO, operating at a powerful 1000 RPM, ensuring your machinery runs at optimal speed for maximum efficiency.
