Ever-increasing working hours at a stretch and higher tractor utilisation require optimum working conditions to aid in protecting the driver’s health and combating fatigue. The 400 Vario meets this objective perfectly. Well thought-out ergonomics and a logical, productive control philosophy simplify all the work waiting to be done.

You have all the Vario drive technology under control with the joystick, which has been ergonomically integrated in the armrest. All that is necessary to accelerate, decelerate and reverse or activate the cruise control is to move the joystick. Besides the transmission controls, the joystick also has control keys for 2 hydraulic valves and activation buttons for the automatic functions.
-
Driving functions (acceleration, deceleration), cruise control, stepless reversing
-
Hydraulic valve controls
-
Activation of automatic modes
-
Located directly next to the crossgate lever, which operates two hydraulic valves
Push the joystick forward to accelerate the Vario. To slow down, simply pull the joystick back again. Driving in reverse is just as easy - only the other way around.
Do you need to reverse quickly? Simply move the joystick to the left - the Vario decelerates to a standstill and drives off again in the opposite direction. Activate the cruise control with a simple movement to the right.
For all drivers who must work long hours in their tractors to ensure the success of their business, operating and driving comfort have the highest priority. With the Variotronic, Fendt provides optimum operating comfort for highest productivity.
