Completes Your Tillage Tools Performance
Whether you're pulling the Sunflower 7200 Soil Conditioner behind a primary or secondary tillage tool, the results are the same-Improved Effectiveness of the Host Machine and Enhanced Efficiency of the Operator. No one else offers the "Exclusive" features found standard on the Sunflower 7200 Soil Conditioner. Wings that flex both up and 10 degrees below level. Adjustable wing sections that allow the Soil Conditioner to be "tailored" to the width of the hose machine.
Overlapping gangs to condition soil completely across the entire machine eliminating any misses. And you wont find C-Flex mounted "Chevron" reels on the competition either, they just can't keep up.

The Tier III Cat® C15 and C18 ACERT® technology engines supply significant power when compared to other tractors in its class. The real test of an engine is when it maintains power, while lugging through tough conditions and encountering heavy loads. The Special Application models have the built-in deep torque reserve for today’s jobsites.
While most engine manufacturers resorted to other methods to meet Tier III standards, including exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), Caterpillar took a completely different path, developing its own unique technology. ACERT technology allows precise control of the combustion process ensuring emission standards compliance without sacrificing horsepower, performance, or reliability.
Special Application units use the same transmissions as the Ag specific counterparts. The Cat Powershift transmission features push-button control for 16 forward and 4 reverse gears.
With eight gears providing a 4 to 9.3 MPH (6.5 to 14.9 kph) working range, these machines provide the responsiveness and productivity your applications need. Since getting the job done means transport as well as work, Challenger offers one of the fastest transport speeds of any articulating tractor at 24.6 MPH (39.6 kph) meaning more time in-work and less time between loads.
The CAT transmission and engine are continuously communicating to provide optimum productivity and performance. The transmission senses the load on the engine and adjusts to deliver smoother shifts and longer life for all components.
The Power Management system is designed to get the job done faster and more efficiently.
This control coordinates engine speed with transmission gear to match an operator’s needs with job conditions. Maximum Power mode keeps the engine in the peak power range for heavy draft loads. Constant Ground Speed achieves an operator-designated ground speed while automatically controlling shifts and engine speed to maximize fuel efficiency.
Special Application tractors offer more flow, more versatility, and more efficiency than ever before.
Standard features include 4 remote hydraulic valves with a 5th and 6th valve available as an option. The Special Application tractors feature a closed center, load-sensing, pressure- and flow-compensating system, and a 59 gpm (223.3 L/min) pump standard.
The operator can electronically adjust flow rates, timed detents, and individual valve operation with precision from the cab’s Tractor Management Center display. The operator can also direct continuous flow of up to 36 gpm (136.3 L/min) through any one coupler. High-flow, ¾ inch implement valves are optional and offer up to 42 gpm (158.9 L/min). This is particularly important for implements with large cylinders or when pulling multiple implements.
One of the first things you’ll notice about the cab is its size. Leading the industry, it boasts 108 ft3 (3.06 m3) of comfort, convenience, and control. You’ll appreciate the 67.5 ft2 (6.2 m2) of usable glass area, the slim profile dash, and the short sloping engine hood which combine to deliver an unobstructed, panoramic view.
Additional comfort and convenience amenities include:
Challenger’s unique Tractor Management Center (TMC) has an intuitive ergonomic design that puts all key functions at your fingertips including the all new ISOBUS TMC display. As the international standard for electronic communications used in agriculture, ISOBUS allows any compatible tractor to communicate with any compliant implement, no matter the manufacturer.
The TMC display allows the operator to monitor all tractor, engine, and transmission functions, as well as check and adjust hydraulic flow settings all from one single location. It can control all connected ISOBUS compatible implements - eliminating the need for additional monitors or control boxes in the cab. Simply plug and play for seamless operation.
Challenger’s exclusive Mobil-trac system (MTS) combines the speed, mobility, and versatility of rubber tires with the flotation, traction, and low ground pressure offered by tracks. The superior traction and floatation provided by the MTS gives you more pulling ability, greater efficiency, and a smoother ride to let you do more per day.
Thanks to the exclusive Opti-Ride™ suspension, advanced Marsh Mellow® springs, and oscillating bogey system, the MTS can adapt and contour to the varying job terrain, isolate and absorb any bumps and ruts, and provide the operator a smooth comfortable ride.
Easily adjusting the infinitely variable undercarriage gauge, which ranges from 90-128 inches (2286-3215 mm), allows the Challenger MT800C Series tractors to fit virtually any operation.
The MT900C Series ensures a perfect balance of strength and agility. It boasts the heaviest, most robust frame in the industry which serves as the foundation for the machine. The driveline is one of the largest in the industry and connected to the largest standard diameter axles. The size, strength and weight help to efficiently put power to the ground without hampering the maneuverability of the tractor.
