TRANSMISSION

The Claas 65E tractor features a full power shift transmission with 10 forward and 2 reverse gears, facilitating seamless power transfer without interrupting engine torque. This enables enhanced operational efficiency and adaptability in various field conditions, allowing for smooth transitions during load changes. However, the complexity of the power shift system may require more maintenance and operator skill compared to simpler gear systems, making it critical for users to undergo proper training to maximize performance.

Gears 10 forward and 2 reverse

MECHANICAL

The Claas 65E crawler tractor features hydrostatic differential steering, offering enhanced maneuverability and precise control, especially in tight fields or on slopes. Its 10-speed full power shift transmission optimizes power delivery and allows seamless gear changes, significantly improving operational efficiency. The hydraulic caliper disc brakes provide reliable stopping power, essential for safety during demanding tasks, though their maintenance may require more attention than conventional braking systems.
