ESPERANCE Challenger dealer P H Kerr will hold a customer day on Wednesday, June 7 to provide information on the new Challenger E Series models.
It will be held at the Gibson Football Club and is open to all farmers, regardless of their persuasion.
“We want to get the word out that these new models are now equipped with AGCOPOWER 16.8L Sisu engines,” Brian said.
“The three flagship models boast V12 engines developing power ratings between 490 horsepower (336kW) and 600hp (440kW).
“Challenger engineers have developed better torque curves to put more power to the ground while improving fuel economy and we’ve already seen up to 15 per cent improvements in some of these tractors already in operation in the district.
“Hydraulic capacity has jumped to 321 litres a minute to handle any amount of hydromotors, along with an improved lighting package.
“You’ve still got the 16-speed Caterpillar transmission but everything else has been built by AGCO and the big population of Challengers along the South Coast is testament to the performance of these tractors in a range of soil conditions, including in the wet.”
That will do Brian.
