Fendt 800 Vario COM2

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

Fendt 800 Vario COM2 uses brake fluid with a capacity of 0,8 liter. Service intervals include checking every 12 months or 500 hours and changing every 2000 hours or 24 months. The data covers 6 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Fendt 800 Vario COM2 brake fluid specifications cover the 815, 817, and 818 Vario TMS variants, with production serial number breakpoints used to distinguish earlier (2002-2005) and later (2006-2009) builds of each variant.
  • All six configurations share an identical brake fluid capacity of 0.8 liter, which is a relatively modest reservoir volume consistent with a dedicated hydraulic brake and clutch circuit rather than a large integrated hydraulic system.
  • The note "hydraulic brake/clutch system" indicates that brake fluid in these tractors serves a combined function, supplying both the braking circuit and the clutch actuation system from a single shared reservoir.
  • The check interval of 12 months or 500 hours, whichever comes first, applies uniformly across all variants under normal use conditions, meaning fluid level and condition are assessed on a relatively frequent cycle given the dual-function nature of the circuit.
  • The change interval of 2000 hours or 24 months reflects a time-based and usage-based threshold. Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point, so the 24-month calendar limit addresses degradation that occurs regardless of machine hours.
  • The serial number breakpoints — for example, 715/../0000 through 715/../2000 for the earlier 815 Vario TMS build and 715/../2001 onward for the later build — are used to differentiate production batches rather than model years alone, which is common in agricultural equipment where running production changes occur mid-year.
  • Despite the serial number split creating two distinct specification rows per variant, the capacity, check interval, and change interval values are identical across both production ranges for all three variants, indicating no revision to fluid service requirements between the earlier and later builds.
