CT4045H Compact Tractor

Some days, you want to keep working until you’ve checked everything off your to-do list. A comfortable seat helps you stay in the tractor longer without feeling beat up at the end of the day.

The deluxe suspension seat, available on select Bobcat® compact tractors, absorbs the vibration and bumps you experience on the job, maximizing your comfort. It’s fully adjustable to accommodate every operator and includes a foldable armrest on the right-hand side for extra comfort and support when you need it. So go ahead, finish the mowing, clean out the barn, plant a few more trees or clear out one more pasture. You’ll be comfortable no matter how long you stay out there.

Bobcat® compact tractors are designed to be easy to use with controls that help you do more work with less effort. Intuitive control levers are easy to use, and extras like power steering, cruise control and more help you operate the tractor and implements with confidence.

The linked pedal option is available on tractor models starting at the 2000 Platform and above that have a hydrostatic or electronic hydrostatic transmission to increase engine rpm as you engage the travel pedal, for operation that feels similar to driving a car. This makes for intuitive front-end loader control and enhances the ease of use on a variety of other jobs.

When you’re comfortable, long days and a long list of projects are no problem. Bobcat® compact tractors are loaded with comfort features and easy-to-use controls so you can put in as many hours as you want to and not feel it the next day. Look for standard features, including ergonomic controls, suspension seat and low-noise, low-vibration engines, plus extras that make these machines easy to use and easy to enjoy.

Select models are equipped with a turbo-charger that delivers consistently high performance and impressive low-end torque that never relents in higher altitudes.

The hydrostatic transmission (3-range HST) uses hydraulic pressure to change speed, operating similar to a vehicle. You'll only need to stop moving if you want to change your range. It's a good choice for frequent front-end loader work such as cleaning stalls, mowing or maneuvering in tight areas. A simple twin-pedal design enables quick and easy direction changes: One pedal moves you forward, the other moves you in reverse. Its ease of operation makes it a good choice for novice drivers.

Independent power take-off (PTO) allows you to simply flip a switch to engage or disengage the PTO without stopping the tractor or using the clutch. This comes in handy for tasks that require frequent stopping and restarting of your implement, including moving from one hole to the next as you use the auger. 

Till your garden and plant a spring food plot. Clear weeds from the ditches and pastures. Dig holes for fence posts or trees in all types of soil conditions. Mow your acreage in an afternoon. You can do it all with power take-off (PTO). Rear PTO is standard on all Bobcat® compact tractors, and mid PTO is standard on select models and optional on all other models except on 4000 Platform models with a manual transmission. PTO coupled with the 3-point hitch allows you to operate numerous implements with ease.

Bobcat® compact tractors deliver leading drawbar towing power and force for heavy towing performance that beats many other tractor brands. The hitch is adjustable to provide towing flexibility and convenience.

The 3-point hitch transforms your Bobcat® tractor into a do-it-all machine to mow, till, grade a driveway, rake debris and weeds, move snow, and more. It’s compatible with all Category 1 implements and includes features that make it easy to hook up implements.

Tire Options – Compact Tractors

Choose the tire option, available for all Bobcat® compact tractor models, that best matches the work you do around your property, ranch or farm.

Industrial Tires

Industrial tires provide long wear and outstanding protection against punctures. The tread is wider than agricultural tires, and lugs are deeper than turf tires. They deliver great traction for all ground conditions and many different applications.

Turf Tires

Turf tires are designed with less aggressive tread that minimizes disturbance on lush lawns and established landscaping when using your compact tractor.

Every day brings a new challenge on the farm or acreage. Bobcat® compact tractors offer maximum maneuverability to take on those challenges. Whether you need high clearance to get through rough terrain, four-wheel drive for extra traction or a tight turning radius to work around obstacles, you'll find the performance you need to get to the work.

A ROPS, standard on all non-cab models, is designed to protect the operator in the event of a rollover (when the ROPS is locked in the up position and the seatbelt is fastened). The foldable ROPS can be temporarily lowered when driving under trees, into garages or in other low-clearance areas.

Count on excellent lift capacities to increase your implement capabilities and improve your performance. Many Bobcat® tractors offer the highest 3-point hitch lift capacity in their size.

Regular maintenance is a big part of keeping your property looking its best – and key to keeping your Bobcat® compact tractor running at peak performance.

A centralized location for fuses and relays simplifies the need to replace fuses or troubleshoot electronics.

Your compact tractor packs a lot of versatility for the price, and hard-working Bobcat® implements and attachments are made to help you bring to life the numerous possibilities you dream about for your land.

Jump on the mower to get a clean professional cut for the lawn around your home. Hook up the post- hole auger to dig holes for new trees to line the entrance to your property. Clear weeds and tall grass from pastures. Prepare the soil for a spring food plot. Clean out barns or haul hay. Grade the gravel driveway. Quickly blow snow away from your home and outbuildings.
