Introduction
Cletrac CG Agricultural Crawler Tractor
The Cletrac CG is an agricultural crawler tractor produced by Cletrac between 1937 and 1942. Designed for heavy-duty field operations, this tracked machine was engineered to provide significant pulling power and stability on varied soil conditions.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 6-cylinder gasoline engine with a liquid-cooling system. It features a displacement of 383 cubic inches (6.3 liters) and operates at a rated speed of 1565 RPM. To ensure longevity in agricultural environments, the intake system is equipped with an oil bath air cleaner. The engine is started via an electric starter system.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Power is transferred through a gear-type transmission offering three forward speeds and one reverse gear. A dry disc clutch manages the power engagement between the engine and the drivetrain. The machine utilizes a crawler drive system, supported by 13-inch wide tracks to distribute the tractor's 11,500 lbs (5,216 kg) weight and provide necessary traction.
Operator Environment
The Cletrac CG features an open operator station. This design provides the operator with direct control and visibility over the equipment, which is consistent with the ergonomic standards of agricultural machinery from this era.
Conclusion
With its robust crawler construction and 58 horsepower rating, the Cletrac CG was built for demanding agricultural applications requiring high drawbar pull and stability, serving as a durable solution for field work during the late 1930s and early 1940s.
