Fendt Favorit 926 Vario tractor

Even for a model released a long, long time ago you have to admit this Bruder Fendt Favorit 926 tractor has held up well.

Steering the Wheels

Remove the steering rod located by the rear tow hitch and insert it through the cab roof hatch. Then connect it with the centre positioned steering wheel to control the front wheels.

Turning the wheels will only allow for a wide turn, so doing a number of smaller turns by pushing the tractor forwards and backward would help overcome this obstacle.

Open Cab

Interior of the cab is made from tough white plastic with only the steering wheel standing out in black.

Accessing this steering wheel plays a part mind you because they're able to control the steering wheel to turn the front-axle.

There's no doors or windows so reaching in is made easy, but don't forget you can fix a figure to the seat whenever the time is right.

Front Mount

Has it happens the small - hardly noticeable - counter-weight occupies the front mount but this counter-weight can be slipped off with ease.

Then its only a matter of slipping-on a Bruder farm implement that is compatible with the mount, though its usually reserved for the mower or seed implement.

Rear Tow Hitch

Nothing fancy or complicated with this rear tow hitch, simply hook the Bruder trailer or farm implement tow bar over the hitch and clip on tight, with a good yank lifts the trailer off.

Later models have the height-adjustable rear tow hitch coupling, with this one made a little simpler with no moving parts.

Engine under the Bonnet

To this day this simple but effective feature still remains on all Bruder tractors, and as the panel is lifted up on the side, it reveals the engine detail.

Extended play happens well turning to mechanic to make repairs, well the Bruder figures can get all dirty for you well maintaining the engine block.
