Fendt was founded in 1930 by Xaver Fendt in Marktoberdorf, in the Allgau region of Bavaria, and grew into one of Europe's most respected tractor manufacturers. The company joined the AGCO group in 1997 but continues to design and build tractors at its German plants, where much of its engineering remains today. The company is also known for a strong focus on driver comfort and low fuel use.

Fendt is known for engineering leadership, above all the Vario continuously variable transmission introduced in the mid-1990s, which replaced conventional gear shifting across much of its tractor range. Its tractors are recognised for high operator comfort, precision electronics and fuel-efficient modern diesel engines. Fendt tractors range from compact utility models to large high-horsepower machines for broad-acre farming.

Workshop manuals for Fendt cover the complete tractor: engine service and overhaul, fuel and exhaust systems, the Vario transmission, axles and brakes, hydraulics and implement controls, electrical wiring diagrams, electronic control units, torque specifications, diagnostics and scheduled maintenance. Precise service information matters on Fendt machines because electronics and mechanical systems are closely integrated, and the manuals explain how the two interact during testing and repair.

Farmers, agricultural contractors, dealership technicians and independent tractor workshops will all benefit from factory service documentation for correct repairs, accurate settings and maximum machine uptime. For operators, accurate documentation also supports better planning of maintenance and reduces the risk of expensive downtime at critical times of year.
