Introduction

Fendt 513 Vario Utility Tractor

The Fendt 513 Vario is a utility tractor produced between 2012 and 2022 as part of the Fendt 500 Vario series, manufactured by AGCO. Designed for versatile agricultural operations, this four-wheel drive machine integrates advanced transmission technology with a focus on operator comfort and hydraulic efficiency.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled, 4-cylinder Deutz TCD 4.1 L4 turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 4.0 liters. It complies with Tier IV emission standards and produces a rated net power of 118 hp (88.0 kW), with a maximum net power output of 132.8 hp (99.0 kW). The engine generates 435.2 lb-ft (590.1 Nm) of torque at 1450 RPM, providing consistent pulling capability.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The 513 Vario utilizes the Vario ML90 continuously variable transmission (CVT). This system allows for infinite forward and reverse speed adjustments without the need for traditional gear shifting, enabling the operator to maintain the ideal working speed for any specific task. The tractor features standard four-wheel drive and wet disc brakes for reliable traction and deceleration.

Hydraulics and Hitch

Equipped with a load-sensing hydraulic system, the tractor operates at a pressure of 2900 psi (200.0 bar). The main pump provides a flow of 19.8 gpm (74.9 lpm), with optional higher flow configurations available. The rear hitch features position and draft control, offering a significant lift capacity of 17,152 lbs (7780 kg), while the optional front hitch provides an additional lift capacity of 7,540 lbs (3420 kg).

Operator Environment and PTO

The standard cab includes integrated air-conditioning for operator comfort. The tractor is equipped with an independent rear PTO offering multiple speed settings (540/540E/1000). An optional independent front PTO with 1000 RPM capability is also available, increasing the machine's compatibility with front-mounted implements.

Conclusion

The Fendt 513 Vario is a high-specification utility tractor suitable for a wide range of medium-to-heavy agricultural applications. Its combination of a continuously variable transmission, high-capacity hydraulic system, and robust lift capabilities makes it a productive tool for mixed farming operations requiring precision and versatility.
