Additional hydraulic valves and a side windscreen wiper are included in the flurry of new retrofit options for some of Fendt’s most popular tractors.
The 200 and 300 Vario models have four hydraulic valves as standard. A front loader takes up two valves so the addition of two freely assignable hydraulic valves can provide all 200 Vario Gen3 and 300 Vario Gen4 series running FendtOne the option to use up to four valves to operate further implements.
Other new retrofittable options include a cab-mounted MultifixBoard to fix control boxes to.
The two additional valves are fully integrated as the 5th and 6th EHS valves (brown and violet) into FendtOne. Both are installed in the rear yellow and blue valve spaces and the multi-coupler in the centre of the tractor occupies the yellow and blue valves as usual
The valves will be available towards the end of this year in the UK and the retrofit kit includes a cable set, piping, colour clips for the valve caps and installation instructions.
The retrofittable base plate can hold a trailer hitch or more relevant in the UK and Ireland a toolbox
Other retrofit options for 300 and 700 Vario tractors include a base plate fitted to the right side to mount a holder for the trailer hitch, or a handwash container with integrated soap dispenser.
The additional space can also be used for a toolbox or holder for brooms and shovels. There is also a new retrofittable side windscreen wiper which will help when using boom mowers or working in poor weather conditions.
“Many Fendts will be operating on UK farms for decades and retrofit options like these help some of our older models remain versatile and comfortable for operators,” says Ed Dennett, retail market manager, Northwest Europe.
