Fendt 700 Vario COM3

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Fendt 700 Vario COM3 differential fluid capacity is 8,3 liters. Service intervals include checks every 12 months or 500 hours, changes every 1000 hours or 24 months, and initial changes at 50 hours. The data covers 8 configurations.

Additional Notes

  • The Fendt 700 Vario COM3 front limited slip differential holds 8.3 liters of fluid across all four variants covered by these specifications, namely the 712, 714, 716, and 718 Vario.
  • A uniform 8.3-liter capacity across the 712-718 Vario range points to a shared front axle differential assembly rather than variant-specific hardware.
  • Under normal use conditions, a fluid level check is due at 12 months or 500 hours, whichever comes first, giving operators a time-based and hour-based threshold running in parallel.
  • The normal-use change interval is set at 1000 hours or 24 months, again applying whichever limit is reached first, which ties fluid life to both calendar time and accumulated machine hours.
  • An initial service change interval of 50 hours applies to all four variants. A first-change interval at low hours is standard practice for break-in periods, as metal particles shed during initial component wear are flushed out before they can cause abrasive damage.
  • The initial service change at 50 hours carries no time-based alternative, unlike the normal-use intervals that pair hours with calendar months, meaning the early drain is governed strictly by machine hours.
  • The check interval under normal use at 500 hours falls at exactly half the 1000-hour change interval, placing a fluid condition inspection midway through each full service cycle.
