TRANSMISSION
The Fendt 312 Vario features a continuously variable transmission (CVT), allowing for infinite forward and reverse gears, which enhances its operational flexibility and efficiency. This system offers smooth power delivery and optimal engine performance across varying load conditions, making it ideal for tasks requiring precise speed control. However, potential challenges may include higher initial costs and the need for specialized maintenance compared to traditional gear transmissions.
