Introduction

Cletrac 80D Agricultural Crawler Tractor

The Cletrac 80D is a heavy-duty crawler tractor produced by Cletrac in Cleveland, Ohio, between 1933 and 1936. Designed for demanding agricultural and earthmoving applications, this machine represents the high-horsepower segment of industrial-grade tractors during its era.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled, 6-cylinder Hercules DHX diesel engine. With a displacement of 707 cubic inches (11.6 liters) and a rated speed of 1300 RPM, the unit delivers 111 horsepower. The engine utilizes an electric starter system for operation.

Transmission and Drive

Power is delivered to the tracks through a mechanical gear-type transmission featuring 3 forward gears and 1 reverse gear. The drivetrain incorporates a dry clutch, which manages the power output required for heavy pulling tasks.

Mechanical Configuration

As a crawler-type machine, the 80D is equipped with 17-inch tracks, providing a wide footprint for improved weight distribution and traction on unstable terrain. The tractor has an operational weight of 24,000 lbs (10,886 kg) and features an open-operator station design.
