Powerful and efficient. The engine technology.

New Mercedes-Benz engines.

CLAAS POWER SYSTEMS encompasses the full range of drive technology and matches it with the appropriate engine to form an optimally tuned drive system. This results in the highest level of efficiency available in the market.

It goes without saying that CLAAS products meet the different emissions standards around the world. In markets where Tier 4 (Stage IV (Tier 4) applies, an exhaust-gas after treatment system downstream from the engine is used to ensure compliance. This system uses Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) to convert the nitrogen oxides in the exhaust flow into nitrogen and water. The urea solution necessary for this is carried in a 34 gal (130 l) tank. Urea consumption is about 3% of the diesel consumption.

The engine is rubber mounted to the chassis to minimize noise and vibration. This means you get the best of both worlds: immense power reserves plus top driver comfort.

Large tank for extended working.

The extremely well thought-out tank concept lends itself to extended working. In forage harvesters with exhaust gas aftertreatment, the urea solution only needs to be replenished during every other refuelling stop.

The latest technology which features in the new six-cylinder in-line engines from Mercedes-Benz includes such highlights as:

• Common rail, high-pressure injection technology (up to 2500 bar)
• In-line 6-cylinder engines with displacement of 15.6 l and also turbo-compound technology for maximum efficiency at full load
• Torque is consistent over a wide engine speed range
• Low weight thanks to high power density
• Very low diesel consumption

The engine is flexibly mounted to the chassis to minimize noise and vibration. This means you get the best of both worlds: immense power reserves plus top driver comfort.

• Fuel-efficient performance with low noise
  
• Compliance with the statutory emissions limits
• Steady power rise up to the ideal engine speed of 1800 rpm
  

Reliable cooling.

Record-breaking performance is no excuse for breaking out in a sweat. In the JAGUAR, horizontal slab radiators provide effective cooling under all harvesting conditions. The large surface area of the radiator screen keeps air speeds down, thereby reducing dirt build-up. The screen itself is kept clean by a rotating extractor arm.

The airflow from the fan is directed past the engine and can escape practically unhindered through the large air outlet at the rear. As a result, the JAGUAR can be counted on to continue operating reliably even in extremely hot weather.

Breathing easy.

Large air filters ensure long and reliable operation. Pre-treated engine air is drawn in directly from the radiator compartment. When necessary, the filters can be removed without the need for tools. The integrated compressor delivers 600 l of air per minute at 135 PSI (9.5 bar). This is sufficient to also allow air-driven tools to be operated.

Making optimal use of engine capacity.

The automatic control of the ground speed by CRUISE PILOT allows the engine load to be maximized to its fullest potential. The operator specifies the desired engine load in CEBIS by setting the corresponding engine speed. CRUISE PILOT is activated easily by means of the control lever.

The JAGUAR now adjusts its performance to operate at the set engine load all the time. If the crop suddenly becomes more dense, the ground speed is reduced automatically. If the crop density diminishes again, the JAGUAR increases the ground speed until the preset engine output is attained. This automatic adjustment is based on the detection of the throughput and the engine load.

CRUISE PILOT is an operating mode. You choose the appropriate strategy:

• Cruise control
• Constant throughput
• Maximum engine load
  

You can use the HOTKEY direct menu rotary switch to adjust the selected mode in accordance with the operating conditions while the machine is running.

The benefits for you:

• Greatly eases the operator’s workload
• JAGUAR performs at maximum efficiency

Only as much power as is required.

The JAGUAR 880 and JAGUAR 860 models can be equipped with the DYNAMIC POWER automatic engine output control system.

Maximum efficiency and throughput are attained when operating at full load. In the partial load range, the engine output is reduced automatically. This makes it possible to achieve fuel savings of up to 10.6%.

DYNAMIC POWER adjusts the engine output optimally to the field conditions in ten steps. This ensures that you are always operating in the most efficient engine speed range.

• Save diesel during partial-load operation
• Economical, consistent working with cruise control

JAGUAR 880 Stage IV (Tier 4)

DYNAMIC POWER – function upgrade for the JAGUAR 880 and 860:

Maximum output when entering the crop stand.

Before entering the field, DYNAMIC POWER switches to the maximum engine output. This is made possible through the intelligent combination of the engine load, ground speed and working position. If maximum power is no longer required after entering the crop, DYNAMIC POWER reduces the output to the appropriate setting.

Selectable engine output.

• Maximum output
  
• High output
  
• Medium output
  

Shift point adjustment.

The reduction of the working speed through CEBIS causes the shift points of the output steps to be adjusted to a lower rev range.

Huge reserves.

With its impressive tractive power, the ground drive is designed to get you through. You can call on huge power reserves, even under the most difficult conditions. A harvesting speed of up to 10.4 mph (16.8 km/h) is possible in first gear. The small turning radius and increased ground clearance of the JAGUAR 800 series make it extremely maneuverable.

Active header damping.

The active vibration damping function suppresses movements of the front attachment extremely effectively, thereby making your progress from one job to the next much smoother. Vibration damping is activated automatically when, for example, the front attachment is raised (above working height) when turning at the headland.

Economical on the road.

The electronic ground drive control automatically regulates the engine speed and matches it exactly to the required output. This cuts fuel consumption noticeably and minimizses noise levels.

Guaranteed durability.

Every minute counts in the short forage harvesting period. Time-consuming maintenance work is a nuisance and also a cost factor, since it reduces the number of productive hours – and also your profit margin. The automatic central lubrication system and combined grinding and shear-bar adjustment function are just two examples of how maintenance times can be reduced and operating times boosted. In addition, you also experience increased reliability during the season with highly wear-resistant components used throughout the crop flow of the JAGUAR. So your JAGUAR is always right where it belongs: out in the field, doing what it does best – working hard.

Extremely maintenance-friendly design.

• Once the housing is opened, you have a clear view of the knives and shear bar
  
• It takes ten minutes to separate the chopping cylinder and the intake on the JAGUAR
  
• Engine maintenance can be done quickly; all service points are easily accessible from all four sides
  
• The automatic central lubrication unit with 2.1 gal (8 l) rease reservoir is sufficient for around 120 hours of operation
  
• Large side panels with a new opening system allow unrestricted access to the cooling system, the Corncracker and the accelerator
• The Corncracker can be removed quickly and easily
• For maintenance, the accelerator can also be removed by two people approximately an hour
  
• The on-board compressed air supply can be used for many different cleaning tasks
• The service lighting makes it possible to complete maintenance work during the evening hours, too
