The Steiger Panther CP-1325 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor produced by Steiger in Fargo, North Dakota, between 1982 and 1985. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine focuses on high-traction performance and durability.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Caterpillar 3406 six-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 893 cubic inches (14.6 liters). With a rated speed of 2100 RPM and a compression ratio of 14.5:1, the engine delivers 325 horsepower (242.4 kW). It utilizes a liquid-cooling system and a dual dry element air cleaner to maintain efficiency under demanding field conditions.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Equipped with a full power shift transmission, the CP-1325 offers 12 forward and 2 reverse gears. Power is managed through an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch. The drivetrain features four-wheel drive with outboard planetary final drives, providing the necessary torque distribution for heavy pulling tasks.
Hydraulics and Hitch
The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center design with three valves, allowing for precise control of various implements. It features a rear Category III/IV hitch and an independent rear PTO operating at 1000 RPM, ensuring compatibility with heavy-duty agricultural equipment.
Operator Environment and Chassis
The tractor is built on an articulated frame with power steering for improved maneuverability. It weighs 35,500 lbs (16,102 kg) and has a wheelbase of 141.5 inches (359 cm). The standard cab configuration includes air-conditioning to support operator comfort during extended operation, and the machine relies on hydraulic disc brakes for stopping power.
Conclusion
The Steiger Panther CP-1325 is a robust, high-horsepower tractor engineered for heavy tillage and large-acreage farming. Its combination of a Caterpillar engine, full power shift transmission, and substantial operating weight makes it suitable for intensive primary cultivation.
