Fendt Favorit (600 LS) – large six-cylinder tractors from Marktoberdorf, models from 600 LS to 626 LS, 62.2 to 185 kW, 4,775 to 9,565 kg unladen weight

The Fendt Favorit 600 LS is a range of large tractors from Marktoberdorf, all with six-cylinder diesel engines; it spans the Favorit 600 LS and 610 LS, through the 611 LS/LSA (FWA282/FWA382), to the 615 LSA and 626 LS (FWA 292). The type numbers order the models by ascending power class. It was a sought-after alternative to imported large tractors for years, in farms with high drawbar demands.

The register lists 5 versions with 62.2 to 185 kW from six-cylinder engines of 5,652 to 11,407 cm³, unladen weights of 4,775 to 9,565 kg, lengths of 4,684 to 5,660 mm, widths of 2,167 to 2,450 mm, heights of 2,809 to 3,110 mm and torque of 324 to 508 Nm at 2,200 to 2,300 rpm.

The 600 range covered Fendt's upper power segment for large farms, spanning from the more compact 600 LS to the large-displacement 626 LS at the top; it competed with large tractors from other European makers in this market segment. Robust, easy-to-maintain engineering without complex transmission electronics remains one of this range's strengths today.

On a used 600 LS, check the clutch and gearbox, the hydraulic system and lift linkage, and rust on the cab and frame; on the large-displacement, turbocharged six-cylinder engines, check the injection pump and charge-air cooler, with parts available through specialist Fendt parts dealers.

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.
