Anton Schlüter DMZ 25 – early Munich tractor of the DMZ range (1937–1942): water-cooled twin-cylinder diesel with 2,425 cm³ displacement, 18.4 kW/25 hp
The DMZ 25 from the DMZ range was built from 1937 by Anton Schlüter in Munich and continued until 1942, in an early phase of tractor production by the Munich engine maker. A water-cooled twin-cylinder engine at leisurely speed was typical for fieldwork of this period and, compared with single-cylinder engines, offered smoother running with similarly simple technology.

The DMZ 25 is powered by a water-cooled twin-cylinder diesel engine with 2,425 cm³ displacement, producing 18.4 kW or 25 hp at 1,500 rpm. The machine is 2,700 mm long, 1,640 mm wide and 1,660 mm high, has a wheelbase of 1,770 mm, weighs 1,800 kg and reaches 20 km/h.
At 20 km/h, the DMZ 25 falls into driving licence category L. As an early Anton Schlüter tractor model, it dates from a period when the Munich engine maker built tractors alongside stationary engines, with a slow-running twin-cylinder diesel engine typical of the late 1930s.
For a tractor from this period, the used market is effectively a collectors' market; what counts is the frame and sheet metal's condition for corrosion, the state of the injection pump and cooling system, and the completeness of historical fittings, since regular parts are no longer available. The chassis's riveted joints and the front-axle bearings should also be closely assessed on such an old tractor, since replacement panels in this form are no longer produced.

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.
