Fendt 900 Vario

They said it couldn’t be done -
the 900 Vario makes the impossible possible
A combination of suspension systems
The combination of shock-load stabilizing, X5 cab with pneumatic suspension and independent wheel front
axle suspension with level control, provides ride comfort on par with commercial highway vehicles. This also
contributes to operating control since the vehicle is less likely to develop bounce when transporting with mounted
implements. The load on the front axle remains constant and steerability is maintained.
13.8 in (350 mm)
49.2 in (1250 mm)
The 31 mph (50 km/h) version of the 900
Vario has the FBS2 dual-circuit braking system
and Fendt Stability Control (FSC) as optional
equipment. In addition to enhanced comfort,
these systems provide greater driving stability
and increased braking capacity, which permit
a maximum speed of 31 mph (50 km/h). That
means increased mobility for you. A further
benefit is a higher permissible gross weight
and the higher payload that goes with it.
Level control ensures a constant long suspension travel
- independent of load.
The pneumatic suspension has integrated level control, so
that the level of comfort always remains constant without
having to make adjustments. The large height difference and
long distance between the spring elements on the X5 cab
compensate for braking effects and pitching movements.
without FSC
with FSC
Even in the Power version, a gross vehicle weight of 39,000 lbs
(18,000 kg) is possible for the 900 Vario. The Power version is therefore
the right tractor for you if you need a high-horsepower tractor that you
will use predominantly for heavy-duty draft work in the field.
The full comfort of the suspension systems is also available for operations
in the field, where it increases operator comfort making operators more
productive and accurate.
The transport of silage, manure and other
materials is an increasingly important tractor
application in agricultural production
today. The Fendt answer to this challenge
is an unprecedented concept: a standard
tractor with a 1 mph (50 km/h) high–
speed chassis, which delivers maximum
operational performance capability on the
road as well as in
the field.
More mobility with greater control
The 900 Vario was the first standard tractor
with full in-field capabilities that could achieve
a top speed of 31 mph (50 km/h). The basis for
this enhanced mobility is a perfectly adapted
high-speed chassis. The symbiosis between a
front axle with independent suspension, FSC,
a reactive steering system and dual-circuit
four-wheel braking system provides maximum
payloads and highway performance on par with
commercial highway vehicles.
