DANGER: Indicates an impending dangerous situation that will lead to serious injury or
death if not avoided.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially dangerous situation that could lead to serious injury or

Please observe the following when carrying out maintenance or service work to the tractor:
Only the documentation associated with the vehicle (workshop manual and operator's manual) must be
used to complete any pending work.
1. General
• Only briefed personnel may operate the tractor or carry out maintenance work.
• Only use qualified specialists to carry out repairs or service work.
• Nobody may be in the cab while work is being carried out under the jacked-up tractor.
• Relieve pressure from implement lines, e.g. to the front loader.
• All people should keep clear of a lifted, unsecured load (e.g. tilted cab etc.).
• Never open or remove any safety devices while the engine is running.
• Pressurized fluids (fuel or hydraulic oil) escaping under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause
severe injuries. If this should occur, seek medical advice immediately to avoid the risk of serious
infection.
• Keep at a safe distance from hot areas.
• Pressure accumulator and connected pipes are highly pressurized. Only remove and repair in
accordance with instructions provided in the workshop manual.
• To avoid eye injury, do not look directly at the surface of the activated radar sensor.
• Dispose of oil, fuel and filters properly!
• Specialist knowledge and special fitting tools are required to fit tires.
• Run the tractor for a short time, then retighten all wheel nuts and bolts and check them regularly.
For correct torque values refer to TECHNICAL DATA.
• Before working on the electrical system, always remove the earth strap from the battery. Observe the
following when carrying out electric welding. Before carrying out welding work on tractor or mounted
implements, ensure that both battery terminals are disconnected. Attach the welding appliance's earth
terminal as close to the welding spot as possible.
• Caution is required when dealing with brake fluid and battery acid as these are toxic and corrosive!
• Only use genuine FENDT spare parts.
2. Working on the front-axle suspension
• The front axle suspension pressure lines between the central control block (ZSB) and the suspension
