Claas Ares 800

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

Claas Ares 800 brake fluid capacity is 0,9 liter. Service intervals include a check at 10 hours and a change at 1200 hours or 12 months. The data covers 3 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Claas Ares 800 series covers three configurations across the 2002-2007 production span: the Ares 816 (H4412), Ares 826 (H4422), and Ares 836 (H4432), each specifying a hydraulic brake system with identical fluid capacity and service interval values.
  • All three configurations share a brake fluid capacity of 0.9 liter, which represents the service fill volume for the hydraulic brake system rather than a dry or overhaul fill figure.
  • A check interval of every 10 hours is specified across all three configurations, reflecting the relatively frequent monitoring expected of hydraulic brake fluid in agricultural machinery operating under normal use conditions.
  • The change interval is set at 1200 hours or 12 months, whichever comes first, applying a dual threshold that accounts for both operational hours and calendar time under normal use conditions.
  • The 12-month calendar limit on fluid changes means that even low-hour machines reaching the one-year mark are subject to a fluid change, independent of accumulated operating hours.
  • No variation in capacity or service intervals exists between the 816, 826, and 836 variants, indicating a shared hydraulic brake system architecture across the Ares 800 range for the 2002-2007 period.
