JAGUAR 900 TERRA TRAC
On track for soil protection.

Agriculture is changing. CLAAS is consistently developing TERRA TRAC technology to meet the increasing demands of farmers and contractors regarding area yield, flexibility, and lower ground pressure.

The benefits for you.

Quick on the road
Reduces soil compaction in the field
Stable on slopes
High traction for heavy-duty work
Comfortable driving experience

Particularly gentle on the soil.

Ground pressure measurement results.

Soil is the most important basis for production in the agricultural sector. As it is impossible to create more of it, ever-increasing yields have to be obtained from existing land. This can only be achieved with machines that are bigger, more powerful and, therefore, heavier. Soil compaction is the result. Recognizing the need to reduce this effect drastically, we developed the TERRA TRAC drive concept with a patented geometry for particularly effective soil protection.

Protection of soil and stubble from damage when driving.

Soil pressure measurement when cornering.

For the JAGUAR, we have taken our TERRA TRAC concept one step further. The JAGUAR TERRA TRAC is the first forage harvester equipped as standard with a solution to protect the soil and stubble against damage from driving. This headland protection reduces the contact area by a third when cornering and protects the grass cover. This means—that for the first time—it is possible to benefit from the advantages of the crawler track system all year round on all surfaces.

The TERRA TRAC crawler track system causes significantly lower soil pressure than a wheeled machine—even in headland mode.

The TERRA TRAC concept.

The driving force.

The TERRA TRAC drive concept with its patented geometry combines reliable, durable components with sophisticated technology.

With the most powerful model, the JAGUAR 990 TERRA TRAC, a 12-row ORBIS 900 and narrow crawler track units, you'll be in the unique position of being able to take a machine with this level of this performance on the road within a width limit of 9' 10" (3 m).
Friction-locked drive: there is no interrupted drive due to individual teeth, instead, a continuous frictional drive connection is provided across the entire track.
Large wheels: the large wheels prevent rapid sinking into the ground and enable an easier exit from the track formed by the machine in extreme conditions. Also, the large diameter of the wheels results in a greater contact area with the track and allows more effective power transmission.

Advanced technology.

Durable components.

Hydropneumatic suspension: the smart suspension system ensures a high level of driving comfort while keeping mechanical loads on the machine low. Wheels and yoke-type track rollers are suspended separately. This enables driving speeds of up to 25 mph (40 km/h) and noticeably enhanced cornering stability.
Automatic track belt tensioning: the robust track belt is tensioned by an additional hydraulic cylinder that prevents slippage. The tension is constantly monitored electronically. If the track tension pressure drops, the rider is warned via CEBIS.

Altogether impressive.

Recognized around the world.

Large contact area combined with a transport width that complies with the rules of the road
Avoiding soil compaction and preservation of the soil structure
Less driving resistance with less slip, lower fuel consumption with greater stability on slopes thanks to optimized traction
Higher seasonal performance through longer working times—even under the most challenging conditions
Shallower ruts that can be easily eliminated with subsequent tillage
Comfortable working environment in the field or on the road, even at speeds as high as 25 mph (40 km/h) thanks to fully suspended crawler track units
9' 10" (3 m) transport width with the narrow 2' 1" (635 mm) wide crawler track units

Good soil structure for a better yield.

The benefits.

These benefits positively impact efficiency for farmers and contractors, and offer enormous potential for cost savings. Maintaining good soil structure is the basic prerequisite for good yields. By keeping the soil in good condition, fertilizer use can also be minimized, as healthy soil can make nutrients better available than compacted soil.

In addition, the use of the TERRA TRAC crawler track system can lead to fuel savings. Subsequent tillage can be carried out with less tractive power, as the soil compaction is more superficial in contrast to other drive systems of the same weight class. The excellent traction performance of the crawler track system increases tractive force and, therefore, power with the same fuel consumption.

From seed to harvest.

A holistic approach.

The benefits of the TERRA TRAC concept are obvious and have proved themselves in combine harvesters for over 20 years. In order to make full use of this systems potentials, it's important to take a holistic approach to soil protection. This means treating the soil with care throughout every process in the chain. Taking this line of reasoning to its logical conclusion, CLAAS is now extending the application of this concept to the tractor and forage harvester so that farmers and contractors can treat the basis of their livelihood—the soil— sustainably from seed to harvest.
