With Typ 416 on the type plate you know exactly which Fendt 516 Vario you have. More than 300 parts fit it, covering lighting, electrics and trailer couplings.
This page covers one version only, the Fendt 516 Vario with Typ 416 on its identification plate. It lists more than 300 parts that suit this version and nothing that belongs only on another 516 Vario. To keep things clear, we will take one walk round the tractor.
On top of the cab sit the rotating beacons and work lights, HELLA among them. For the beacon there is also the separate spring for its holder. A beacon on a push-on pin shakes loose once that spring weakens, and after a few days in the field it leans over or ends up on the bonnet. When fitting a new beacon, clean out the socket the pin goes into and swap the spring at the same time if it feels slack.
With a wide implement on the back, a wide-angle mirror is no luxury on the road. Set it so you can just see the rear tyre and the edge of the road, and it will cover the blind spot beside the tractor well.
For the engine there are seals, gaskets for the front cover, sensors and discs. At the tank it is the fuel tank cap and the O-ring that sits inside it. If you are unsure whether a sensor or gasket is the right one, take the reference number from the old part and compare it with the item.
If you see oil on the front of the engine, do not replace the front cover gasket on a hunch. Clean the whole area thoroughly, run the engine for a while and watch where the first drop forms. Oil runs downwards and often collects well below the actual leak, so this stops you replacing the wrong gasket.
At the back are the Wabco coupling heads for the trailer air brakes, along with the covers that close them off. There are also springs for the mudguards, the small part that keeps a steering mudguard in place.
If the plate shows something other than Typ 416, look at the Fendt 516 Vario Typ 438. For everything on the model in one overview, go to the Fendt 516 Vario. If you also run another tractor from the Fendt 500, the pages for the Fendt 512 Vario, Fendt 513 Vario and Fendt 514 Vario will help, since lamps, mirrors and small wear parts are often shared. All other models are under Fendt parts.
