The Steiger Panther CP-1360 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor manufactured between 1982 and 1985 in Fargo, North Dakota, USA. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine represents a significant era in high-horsepower tractor engineering.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a Caterpillar 3406 liquid-cooled, 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine. With a displacement of 893 cubic inches (14.6 L) and a compression ratio of 14.5:1, it produces a rated power of 360 hp at 2100 RPM. The engine cooling system and the dual dry element air cleaner are designed to maintain operational efficiency under heavy load conditions.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Power is transmitted via a full power shift transmission providing 12 forward and 2 reverse gears. The system utilizes electro-hydraulic wet disc clutches for gear engagement. The tractor features four-wheel drive with outboard planetary final drives, ensuring effective power transfer to the ground.

Hydraulics and PTO

The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center design equipped with three valves to operate various agricultural implements. The rear independent PTO operates at a standard 1000 RPM, providing consistent power output for heavy-duty attachments. The rear hitch is compatible with category III/IV implements.

Dimensions and Operator Environment

The Panther CP-1360 has a wheelbase of 141.5 inches (359 cm) and an operating weight of 35,300 lbs (16,012 kg), supported by 23.1-34 tires on both front and rear axles.
