Max Gross Weight:
Up to 10,000 kg (22,000 lbs) or more, depending on configuration and ballast.
Cab Features:
While primarily work-focused, cabs may include basic radio, heating, and ventilation systems. Advanced infotainment was not a primary focus in this class of tractor at the time.
Control Systems:
Electronic draft control for the rear hitch, power take-off (PTO) management systems.
Telematics Options:
Some models might have had provisions for GPS integration or basic telematics for fleet management, though this would be optional and model-dependent.
Engine Oil Change:
Typically every 250-500 operating hours or annually, whichever comes first (Refer to manual for precise interval).
Hydraulic Oil Change:
Typically every 1000-1200 operating hours or every two years (Refer to manual for precise interval).
Air Filter Replacement:
Check and clean/replace based on operating conditions, typically every 250 hours or as indicated by service monitor.
Fuel Filter Replacement:
Typically every 500 operating hours or annually (Refer to manual for precise interval).
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze/coolant with corrosion inhibitors, typically a 50/50 mix with deionized water (Refer to manual for specific type and concentration).
Hydraulic Fluid Capacity:
Approximately 60-80 liters for the main hydraulic reservoir (Refer to manual for exact capacity).
Common Problems:
Potential for electronic control unit (ECU) glitches, hydraulic valve issues, and wear on powershift clutch packs if not maintained properly. Electrical connector corrosion can also be a factor in older units.
Troubleshooting Focus:
The manual is crucial for diagnosing transmission engagement issues, hydraulic system performance problems, and engine fault codes.
Manufacturer History:
Claas is a German agricultural machinery manufacturer with a strong reputation for innovation and quality. Renault Agriculture was a French tractor manufacturer acquired by Claas in 2003, leading to the development of models like the Atles.
Atles Development:
The Atles series was developed from the Renault Ares range, incorporating Claas technologies and design philosophies, offering enhanced performance and operator comfort.
Production Period:
Mid-2000s onwards (Specific start/end dates vary by regional market and specific model variant)
Manufacturing Base:
Historically, Renault tractors were manufactured in France. Post-acquisition, production continued at former Renault facilities or integrated into Claas's global manufacturing network.
