The Medion 310 is the smallest model of the Medion series that Claas built from 2000 to 2009. It replaced the popular 88 series, which was dropped altogether because even the smallest Medion matched the former 98. The 310 uses the six-cylinder Mercedes-Benz OM 906 LA of 6,370 cm³ with 185 hp at 2,200 rpm; the register gives 6,400.8 cm³ and a tank of 400.1 l.
The grain tank holds 58 hl, the cutting width is 450 cm, and five straw walkers 440 cm long do the work. The empty weight without header is 9,340 kg. In the first years the 310 was also delivered to Finland with a Perkins engine.
The gap to its siblings is clear: the 340 has 245 hp, an 82 hl grain tank and six straw walkers.
Claas combines Lexion, Tucano, Mega and Medion – from Harsewinkel: the numbers of the Lexion 510 to 570, Montana for slopes, Terra Trac on tracks, Mercedes and Cat engines
Claas of Harsewinkel in Westphalia is Europe's largest combine maker – since the first combine-binder of 1936 and the self-propelled Hercules of 1953 – and the Lexion has been the flagship since 1995: a hybrid combine that pairs the conventional threshing drum with rotors for residual grain separation. The register shows the programme of the 2000s: the Lexion 510 to 570 with straw-walker separation (the 500 series of model years 2004 to 2010), the suffix Montana for the hillside version with levelling up to 17 percent slope, Terra Trac for the track undercarriage that Claas offered as the first maker in series from 1997, C for the version with Caterpillar engine, and the Plus for the power step. Tucano 320 to 450 is the mid-range from 2007, Mega 350 to 370 the previous generation of the 1990s, Medion 310 the entry model.

The register lists 23 versions with six-cylinders of 6,401 to 12,500 cm³ – Mercedes-Benz OM 906 LA and OM 926 LA in the Tucano and small Lexion, Caterpillar C 9 and C 13 in the big Lexion, C 6.6 in the Mega – at rated speeds of 1,900 to 2,200 rpm; the recorded output of the Lexion 570 is 180 kW.
The Lexion 500 numbers order size by walker count and drum width: 510 and 520 with five walkers and a narrow drum, 540 to 570 with six walkers and a 1.70 m drum; around 2005 the Lexion 570 was the most powerful straw-walker combine in the world.
On used combines, drum hours separate from engine hours, the condition of threshing drum, concave, walkers and sieves, wear of elevators and header, leak-free hydraulics and the cab electronics, whose repairs on older Lexions are expensive, are what count.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
