Versatile 450 – 550

The successor to the HHT models introduced for the year 2013 was the lineup called C3, which featured Tier 4 compliant 15-liter Cummins engines. Torque figures had improved by about 15%. Emission requirements were met through exhaust gas recirculation, particulate filters, and a variable geometry turbocharger. A mechanical 12+4 transmission was available in the 450 and 500 models. Alongside it was a Caterpillar 16+4 full powershift transmission. In the 450 model, it was a slightly milder version than in its predecessor. The lift device (category 4) was now standard. As an option for the hydraulics, a 428-liter pump and electric valves were available. The cab was basically the same as its predecessor, but the dashboard was redesigned and the controls were completely redesigned – most were assembled on the armrest. With the hydraulic electric valves, there was also a rather limited 7" display that, among other things, was used to adjust flows.

In 2013, rubber track versions were introduced, known as Deltatrack. The width of the tracks was either 76 or 91 cm. Weight increased by about 7,500 kg. The turning radius was stated as 11.6 meters. The lift device was not available for the track version. The transmission was always Powershift.
