Fendt Favorit 500 C

Clutch fluid capacity & service interval

Fendt Favorit 500 C uses clutch fluid with a capacity of 0,3 liter. Service intervals include checking at 500 hours, changing at 2000 hours or 24 months, and changing at 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

  • All six variants in the Fendt Favorit 500 C series use a hydraulic clutch system, meaning clutch engagement is controlled through fluid pressure rather than a mechanical cable or linkage. The fluid volume required to fill the system is 0.3 liter across every listed variant.
  • A 0.3 liter capacity is a small reservoir volume, consistent with a self-contained hydraulic clutch circuit rather than a shared hydraulic system. Figures this low typically represent the total fluid held in the master cylinder, lines, and slave cylinder combined.
  • The Favorit 509 C, 510 C, 512 C, and 514 C share an identical service schedule under normal use conditions: a fluid level check at 500 hours and a full fluid change at either 2000 hours or 24 months, whichever comes first. The dual-trigger interval means calendar time can mandate a change even when hour accumulation is low.
  • The Favorit 511 C carries the same 0.3 liter capacity and the same 500-hour check and 2000-hour/24-month change interval as the 509 C, 510 C, 512 C, and 514 C, though production of the 511 C began in 1995 rather than 1993.
  • The Favorit 515 C, produced from 1995-1999, shares the 0.3 liter capacity but has a simplified service specification listing only a 24-month change interval, with no hour-based check or change interval stated.
  • The 2000-hour change threshold on the majority of variants is a relatively long service interval for a hydraulic clutch fluid, reflecting the controlled operating environment of an enclosed tractor hydraulic circuit compared to open or high-heat systems that demand more frequent attention.
