TRANSMISSION
The Fendt Farmer 412 Vario features a continuously variable transmission (CVT), allowing for smooth power delivery and optimized engine efficiency across various operating conditions. The infinite gear selection (2-range) in both forward and reverse enhances maneuverability, making it ideal for applications requiring precise speed control, such as fieldwork or transport. However, the complexity of CVT systems can lead to higher repair costs if maintenance is neglected.
