TRANSMISSION 1
The Fendt F231GT features an 8-speed forward and 4-speed reverse transmission, offering precise control for various agricultural tasks. This gearing configuration is advantageous for optimizing speed and torque, enhancing maneuverability in tight spaces or challenging terrain. However, operators may need to adapt to the shifting pattern for effective performance, particularly when transitioning between forward and reverse operations.
| Gears |
8 forward and 4 reverse |
TRANSMISSION 2
The Fendt F231GT's 16 forward and 8 reverse gears provide enhanced versatility for various agricultural tasks, enabling optimized speed control and efficient power management across different terrains. The extensive gear range allows for smoother operation during fieldwork, making it suitable for tasks requiring precise maneuverability, such as tilling or planting. However, operators may need time to acclimate to the gear shifting, especially in challenging conditions, to maximize productivity and minimize fatigue.
