Introduction
Waltanna 4-380: High-Capacity Articulated Tractor
The Waltanna 4-380 is a heavy-duty, four-wheel-drive articulated tractor manufactured in Tarrington, Victoria, Australia, between 1980 and 1981. It was designed to meet the requirements of large-scale agricultural operations, emphasizing high power output and structural durability.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a Caterpillar 3406 six-cylinder liquid-cooled diesel engine. With a displacement of 14.6 liters, it delivers a rated power of 380 horsepower (283.4 kW) at 2100 RPM. The engine produces a peak torque of 1080 lb-ft (1464.5 Nm) at 1400 RPM, providing the consistent lugging power necessary for heavy primary tillage and high-draft implement operations.
Transmission and Drivetrain
Equipped with a Spicer transmission, the 4-380 utilizes a gear-based system featuring 14 forward and 2 reverse speeds. This configuration allows operators to select precise working speeds to match various field conditions. The machine utilizes a four-wheel-drive system paired with articulated power steering, which facilitates maneuvering despite the vehicle's substantial mass and dimensions.
Hydraulics and Operator Environment
The hydraulic system features a total capacity of 41.7 gallons (157.8 liters), supporting the operation of heavy-duty implements. The operator's station consists of a factory-standard cab equipped with air-conditioning, designed to maintain environmental control during long periods of field work.
