More power for the new Fendt 700 Vario

The new Fendt 700 Vario tractor range now covers the power range from 200 to 240 ch.
It features the ?VisioPlus? cab, the Variotronic system, and exhaust gas treatment using SCR technology (AdBlue addition, Deutz engine).

The new Fendt 700 Vario tractor range receives the ?VisioPlus? cab.

The large windscreen extends from the bonnet up into the roof; the glazed surface area is 6,10 m2 and the right-hand side pillar has been eliminated.

These changes are said to improve visibility for work on local roads or for handling tasks with a front loader. Despite the removal of the right-hand pillar, the cab with opening windscreen is available with a door on the right-hand side.

The slimness of the steering column would also guarantee optimal visibility of the steered wheels.

Familiar from the Fendt 900 Vario range, the integrated display screen provides legibility of all the important information such as forward speed, engine speed, etc.

Adjustable in height and tilt, the ergonomic steering column adapts to the stature of the driver.

Ergonomics and, through them, the driver's health were taken into account in the choice of seats. Fendt has thus extended its range of high-comfort seats with one additional variant.

The ?Evolution? seat features air suspension, a heated seat cushion, low-frequency suspension, lumbar support and special air conditioning.

In addition, the new passenger seat of the Fendt 700 Vario is said to guarantee an optimal level of comfort and safety. When folded, this padded seat can also serve as a table.

To meet the varied requirements of the market, Fendt offers on its new 700 Vario a choice of three different cab suspensions.

In addition to the conventional suspension (mechanical or pneumatic) of the previous range, Fendt now also offers for this power category the three-point air suspension with central front pendulum and air suspension at the front and rear.

This suspension is already found on high-power tractors such as the 800 and the 900 Vario. Climate comfort is provided by automatic air conditioning with a CAN-Bus connection, an LCD screen and automatic temperature control.

Cooler box, storage compartments in the roof and under the passenger seat: numerous storage spaces have been built into this new cab.

Variotronic technology Variotronic technology was first integrated two years ago on the high-power tractors, the Fendt 800 and 900 Vario. It is now available on the new Fendt 700 Vario.

Available in two different versions, the new terminal has a flat structure and a touchscreen.

This terminal includes all the tractor's functional controls, control of ISOBUS-operated implements, the VarioGuide guidance system, VarioDoc documentation and the display of images recorded by the camera.

Fendt remains loyal to Deutz engines

The Fendt 700 Vario tractors receive a Deutz 6-cylinder engine with a displacement of 6,06 litres, featuring four-valve technology and a Common Rail injection system with a pressure of up to 1600 bar. The turbocharger is equipped with an electronic boost pressure regulator.

The new Fendt 700 Vario tractor range meets level 3 (intermediate to Stage IV) of the European exhaust emission regulations. The first independent tests are said to confirm the fuel economy.

In this battle over fuel consumption (see the advertisements from John Deere, New Holland...), Fendt does not fail to emphasise that ?with a consumption of 245 g/kWh, the big brother of the 700 Vario, the Fendt 828 Vario, which develops 280 ch, achieved in a DLG Powermix test economic performance unmatched to date?.

Eliminating exhaust gas after-treatment with an AdBlue urea-based solution is said to allow the engine setting to be optimised, resulting in increased power and reduced fuel consumption.

The new Fendt 700 Vario tractor range is equipped with an entirely new cooling system. The hydraulic oil is cooled by the transmission oil cooling heat exchanger.

The entire cooling system, which includes the engine cooling radiator, the turbo air cooler and the oil cooler, has been fitted under the slim bonnet.

With a very flat and orderly design, the system is said to provide good accessibility for servicing and maintenance.

Fendt 700 Vario tractors can reach a speed of 50 km/h* without having to push the engine beyond its economical speed of 1700 tr/min. (* according to the legislation in force.)

On the transmission side, the Vario 180 ML gearbox benefits from reinforced bearings, rolling bearings and planetary gear sets.

The hydraulic system on the new Fendt 700 Vario Up to five double-acting hydraulic valves can be fitted at the rear of the new Fendt 700 Vario range.

The front, for its part, can be fitted with up to 2 double-acting valves. All are freely configurable. These tractors have a flow rate of 100 litres per minute, a maximum exportable oil volume of 55 litres, and a lifting force of 95,8 kN at the rear linkage and 44,2 kN at the front linkage

. The load compensation system for linkage lowering is said to regulate the lowering speed even with variable loads.

During seeding, while the hopper fill level varies, this system ensures perfectly regular lowering of the linkage without manual correction.

The adaptation of the front linkage to ground unevenness is provided by the implement relief system. The relief valve specifically assigned to this task is said to guarantee perfectly uniform ground pressure for the front-mounted implement.

This principle is said to avoid fitting compensation springs on a front mower. Another remarkable point in hydraulics is the VarioActive steering.

Controlled by the special valves of the VarioGuide guidance system, this technology amplifies steering movements in proportion to the tractor's forward speed. This is said to result in significant time savings and added comfort, particularly during headland manoeuvres or handling with a front loader.

A few details to note on the new Fendt Vario tractors 700

A new concept of headlights and lighting, intended to raise the level of comfort and safety when working in reduced visibility, has been developed.

The position of the headlights has been redefined, the access ladder is illuminated, and the LED rear or corner lights aim to optimise the lighting of the wheel arches.

Integrated into the dashboard and easy to reach according to the manufacturer, the handbrake is activated by the pneumatic or hydraulic system.
