History and service record of 938 Vario MT to 1156 Vario MT

Fendt's clockmaking origin. Fendt's 900 Vario MT brochure says the company began with a German clockmaking family in Oberdorf, moved to a self-propelled grass mower around 1900 and by the 1930s had built the first six-hp Dieselross tractor. Fendt 900 Vario MT series brochure, Fendt.
Seven-cylinder torque. The 900 Vario MT uses an AGCO Power 9.8 L seven-cylinder Tier 4F engine rated 380 to 431 hp that delivers 1,400 lb-ft of torque at 1,275 rpm, working across a 650 to 1,800 rpm band under the Fendt iD low-engine-speed concept. Fendt 900 Vario MT series brochure, Fendt.
VarioDrive and Mobil-trac. A stepless VarioDrive CVT with no range changes drives the tracks, and Fendt's patented Mobil-trac system uses track-to-chassis and cab suspension to reduce compaction and improve tractive ability and ride. Fendt 900 Vario MT series brochure, Fendt.
Weight and intended work. The brochure lists 33,443 to 41,000 lb (15,169 to 18,600 kg) and suggests medium- and high-speed tillage, large planters and air seeders, grain carts, manure tankers and potato or beet lifters. Fendt 900 Vario MT series brochure, Fendt.
Track contact area. Fendt's track system page for the 900 Vario MT gives a wheelbase of 101 inches, five inches longer than before, and total ground contact of 35 ft2 on 25 inch tracks, 42 ft2 on 30 inch and 47.6 ft2 on 34 inch tracks, with infinite gauge settings. Track System, Fendt 900 Vario MT, Fendt.
SmartRide suspension. The hard-bar is mounted to the frame on coil springs, shock absorbers and silent rubber blocks with an 8.5 inch spring stroke that lets it oscillate 11 degrees, while a track bar stops side movement and the oscillating midwheel design keeps ground contact. Track System, Fendt 900 Vario MT, Fendt.
Two-point cab suspension. The 900 Vario MT cab is suspended at two points with coil springs and shock absorbers at the rear and two silent spring blocks at the front, offers 67.5 ft2 of window in a 108 ft3 cab, and has three seat choices. Cab, Fendt 900 Vario MT, Fendt.
Model range and linkage. A Global Agriculture report lists the 938, 940 and 943 Vario MT from 380 to 431 hp, up to 440 l/min hydraulic flow, a standard Cat III/IV linkage with 11,500 daN lift and a two-speed 1000 and 1000E PTO. Fendt 900 Vario MT, Global Agriculture.
