Additional Notes
- Cooling system capacities across the Challenger TerraGator range span from 30.86 liters to 40 liters, reflecting differences in engine displacement and thermal load management requirements between models.
- The TerraGator 8103 and 8133 share the largest cooling system capacity in the lineup at 40 liters each, indicating larger engine configurations with greater heat rejection demands compared to other models in the 2001-2010 range.
- The TerraGator 2104 is available in two power variants, 184 kW and 224 kW, both produced from 2001-2010, yet both share an identical cooling system capacity of 36 liters despite the difference in rated engine output.
- The TerraGator 8300 carries the smallest cooling system capacity in the specifications at 30.86 liters, a notably precise figure that suggests a factory-measured fill volume rather than a rounded service estimate.
- A 10-hour check interval for coolant level is specified under normal use conditions for the TerraGator 2104 (both power variants), 3104, 8300, and 8333, reflecting the high-demand operating environments typical of agricultural application equipment.
- Where a change interval is listed, the specification is 1000 hours or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first. This dual-trigger interval accounts for both heavy-use machines that accumulate hours quickly and lower-utilization machines where calendar aging of coolant becomes the limiting factor.
- The TerraGator 2244 and 3244, both from the 2001-2010 period, share a 35-liter cooling system capacity. The same 35-liter figure also appears in the 8333, 835 LNMS/DNMS, and 845 LNMS/DNMS from the 2010-2015 range, making it the most common capacity value across the full specification set.
- The TerraGator 835 LNMS/DNMS and 845 LNMS/DNMS, both from 2010-2015, carry identical 35-liter cooling system capacities. The LNMS/DNMS designation refers to liquid or dry nozzle metering system configurations, indicating that the cooling system capacity remains consistent regardless of the application system fitted.
- Several models, including the TerraGator 2244, 3244, 8103, 8133, 835 LNMS/DNMS, and 845 LNMS/DNMS, have capacity figures listed without an accompanying check or change interval, meaning only the fill volume is specified for those configurations.
