ACCOUPLEMENT ELASTIQUE - FLECTOR

ELASTIC COUPLING – DRIVE SHAFT FLEXER FOR FENDT TRACTORS – PART NO. CAM199359

Transmission flector for Fendt Farmer, Favorit, GT, and 200 Series tractors

The CAM199359 elastic coupling, also known as a flex coupling, is a transmission component designed for a wide range of tractors Fendt. It is particularly suitable for the Farmer 200, Farmer 300, Favorit 500, and Fendt 200 series, as well as for the Fendt, and GT Geräteträger implement carriers.

This flexible coupling provides the mechanical connection between various rotating components of the drivetrain. Its design allows for the transmission of motion and torque while absorbing some of the vibrations, shocks, and load variations generated during tractor operation.

Part number CAM199359 is intended to replace a flex coupling that shows significant wear, cracks, deformation, or play that could impair the normal operation of the transmission.

What is the role of a flexible coupling on a Fendt tractor?

To transmit motion while providing flexibility

The various transmission components of a tractor are subjected to varying stresses. Changes in RPM, starting the engine, load variations, and intensive agricultural work can generate significant vibrations and stresses.

Unlike a completely rigid coupling, the flector provides a certain degree of flexibility between the mechanical components it connects.

In particular, it helps to:

• transmitting rotational motion;
• ensuring the transfer of torque between mechanical components;
• absorbing some of the vibrations;
• dampen certain jolts;
• limiting the direct transmission of stresses;
• accommodate slight movements between assembled parts;
• protect the mechanical components located around the coupling.

A flector in good condition thus contributes to the smooth operation of the mechanical assembly on which it is installed.

Wide compatibility with tractors Fendt

From older Farmer models to GT implement carriers

The CAM199359 flexible coupling is compatible with a particularly wide range of tractors Fendt.

It is specifically recommended for the following models Fendt 206, 207, 208, and 209; the Farmer 240 through 280; the Farmer 303 through 312; the Favorit 509 through 514; as well as several models in the Fendt GT series, including the GT 360, 365, 370, 380, 390, and 395.

However, exact compatibility depends on the model, its version, and the manufacturer. We recommend verifying the part number of the removed flector before placing an order.

Compatibility with Farmer 200 Series Fendt tractors

Farmer 200 Series

The CAM199359 deflector is compatible with the following models:

• Fendt Farmer 240 S – Type 294

How can you tell if a flex coupler is worn out?

The main symptoms of a worn coupling

The flexible coupling is constantly in operation whenever the mechanism to which it is attached is running. Over the years and with hours of use, its flexible component can gradually lose its properties.

It is recommended to inspect the flex coupling if symptoms such as the following are present:

• visible cracks;
• cracks in the elastic component;
• deformation of the coupling;
• wear around the fasteners;
• abnormal mechanical play;
• unusual vibrations;
• clattering noises during speed changes;
• abnormal jerks;
• mechanical noise occurring under load.

A visual inspection can help identify wear before the flex coupling is completely damaged.

Why replace a damaged flexible coupling?

To maintain proper transmission operation

When the flex coupling is severely worn, its ability to absorb vibrations and load variations decreases. Stresses can then be transmitted more directly to other mechanical components.

Advanced failure can also cause additional play and vibrations.

Replacing a damaged flexible coupling restores a properly functioning mechanical connection and reduces the risk of accelerated wear on nearby components.

Tips for installing the CAM199359 flex coupling

Take advantage of the disassembly to inspect related parts

When replacing the flex coupling, it is recommended to inspect the entire assembly, particularly:

• the mounting bolts;
• the nuts;
• the contact surfaces;
• the condition of the mated parts;
• the absence of excessive play;
• the alignment of the various components.

Tightening must be performed in accordance with the tractor manufacturer’s recommendations.

Misalignment or defective fasteners can place abnormal stress on the new coupling and reduce its service life.

Carefully verify your tractor model Fendt

The same model name may correspond to several configurations

The compatibility of the CAM199359 clearly demonstrates the importance of the manufacturer’s model number. Several models— Fendt —are available in different variants.

This is particularly the case for:

• Farmer 307 – Types 170, 175, and 307;
• Farmer 308 – Types 178 and 308;
• Farmer 309 – Types 186 and 309;
• Farmer 310 – Types 192 and 310;
• Farmer 311 – Types 198 and 311;
• Farmer 312 – Types 199 and 312;
• GT 370 – Types 148 and 370;
• GT 380 – Types 149 and 380.

Before ordering, we recommend checking the tractor’s nameplate as well as any part number that may be on the old coupling.
