Engine

The engine is not specified in the data provided. However, based on the model name, Claas Xerion 5000, it is likely that the engine is a Caterpillar C13 diesel liquid-cooled engine with a displacement of 762.8ci / 12.5L. The engine is capable of producing a rated power of 487hp / 363.2kW and a maximum power of 524hp / 390.7kW. It has a rated RPM of 2000 and an idle RPM of 800-2080. The engine has a torque of 1735 lb-ft /2352.7 Nm at 1400 RPM and a starter voltage of 24.

Transmission

The transmission is a ZF Eccom 4.5 CVT type, which stands for continuously variable transmission. It has infinite forward and reverse gears. The engine (gross) produces 487hp / 363.2kW, while the engine (max) produces 524hp / 390.7kW. The transmission is designed to handle the power output of the engine and provide smooth and efficient power transfer to the wheels. The transmission is a key component of the tractor's performance and is critical to its overall efficiency and productivity.

Brakes

The brakes are hydraulic wet discs, which provide reliable and consistent stopping power. The Caterpillar C13 diesel liquid-cooled engine produces a torque of 1735 lb-ft /2352.7 Nm at 1400 RPM, which puts a lot of stress on the brakes. The brakes are designed to handle this stress and provide reliable stopping power even in challenging conditions. The displacement of the engine is 762.8ci / 12.5L, which is a large engine size that requires powerful brakes to bring the tractor to a stop. The starter voltage of the engine is 24, which is important for ensuring that the brakes are always operational.

Steering

The steering is four-wheel steering, which provides excellent maneuverability and control. The Caterpillar 12.5L diesel engine provides the power needed to turn the wheels and steer the tractor. The steering system is designed to be responsive and precise, allowing the operator to easily navigate the tractor in tight spaces and around obstacles. The steering is a critical component of the tractor's performance and is essential for ensuring that the operator can control the tractor safely and efficiently.

Common Problems

Users have reported issues with the cab, specifically with the air-conditioning system. Some users have reported that the air-conditioning system is not powerful enough to cool the cab effectively, especially in hot and humid conditions. Another common problem is with the transmission, which some users have reported can be difficult to shift at times. Finally, some users have reported issues with the brakes, specifically with the brake pads wearing out quickly and needing to be replaced frequently.

What Users Like
