The most popular Claas models in the late 1980s, namely the 88 and 98, had 5 threshing bars, while the 108 was a 6-threshing bar model. The four-threshing bar 78 was a combination of the technology from the 68 and the larger models. Compared to the smaller models, differences included, among other things, open threshing bars, a larger cab, and the 88-model unloading pipe. The most important innovation compared to the preceding 76-106 models was the new cab. The S models were equipped with mechanical power transmission, while the SL models had hydraulic. Engines used included products from both Perkins and MB, and in many cases, the engines of the S and SL models differed from each other.
