Introduction
Steiger Panther CP-1400: High-Capacity Four-Wheel Drive Tractor
The Steiger Panther CP-1400 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor produced between 1982 and 1985. Manufactured in Fargo, North Dakota, this machine was engineered for large-scale agricultural operations requiring significant traction and power.
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 L) and a liquid-cooling system, it delivers 400 horsepower (298.3 kW) at a rated speed of 2100 RPM. The engine utilizes a dual dry element air cleaner to maintain efficiency in dusty environments and features an electric starter.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Power is transferred through a full power shift transmission offering 12 forward and 2 reverse gears. The system incorporates an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch, allowing for seamless gear changes under load. The drivetrain features articulated power steering and outboard planetary final drives to manage the high torque output inherent in four-wheel drive operations.
Hydraulics and Dimensions
The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center configuration equipped with three valves to operate various implements. The tractor is built on a 141.5-inch (359 cm) wheelbase and weighs approximately 36,500 lbs (16,556 kg), providing the necessary mass for heavy soil engagement. It is fitted with 30.5L-32 agricultural tires on both front and rear axles to optimize ground contact.
