FENDT FARMER 106S POWER
ENGINES OVERVIEW
The Fendt Farmer 106S is powered by either a MWM 3.4L or a MWM 4.2L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering a balanced power-to-weight ratio for efficient operation in various agricultural tasks. The 4.2L engine provides enhanced torque, beneficial for demanding applications such as heavy tillage or pulling larger implements, while the 3.4L engine may favor fuel efficiency for lighter tasks. Consider potential challenges with maintenance, as older engine models may require more frequent servicing and parts availability.
