Fendt Farmer 2 – compact tractor from the 1960s from the Allgäu: three-cylinder diesel up to 2,233 cm3, 25 to 30.5 kW, DE, E and S variants

The Farmer 2 belonged in the 1960s to the lower class of the Fendt Farmer range and was offered in the Farmer 2, Farmer 2 DE, Farmer 2 E and Farmer 2 S variants, which differed in equipment and drivetrain details. Over the decades, the Farmer name stood at Fendt for the mid and lower power class of the brand's conventional field tractors.

The register lists here four versions with 25 to 30.5 kW (35 to 42 hp) from three-cylinder engines of 2,004 to 2,233 cm3 displacement. Unladen weight ranges from 1,735 to 2,225 kg, overall length from 3,264 to 3,625 mm, width from 1,558 to 1,710 mm and height from 1,507 to 1,660 mm. Rated speed sits between 2,100 and 2,600 rpm.

As a compact tractor in the 35 to 42 hp range, the Farmer 2 targeted smaller and mid-sized farms looking for an agile, versatile three-cylinder tractor for fieldwork, yard duties and light transport tasks, without the investment in the larger Farmer models.

On these historic Fendt tractors, what counts is rust on the frame, mudguards and bonnet, the condition of the clutch and gearbox, the tightness of the hydraulics and lift linkage, and the function of the lighting system and instruments. Spare parts for the engine and gearbox are today available mainly through specialist Fendt vintage-tractor dealers and Fendt clubs.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
