Bucher-Guyer TR – the transporters from Niederweningen (canton of Zurich): TR 800 to TR 2600 for Swiss mountain farming, 5 to 16 kW

The TR series denotes the small transporters of the Swiss maker Bucher-Guyer from Niederweningen in the canton of Zurich, whose farm-equipment heritage today belongs to Bucher Industries. The TR 800, TR 2100, TR 2200 and TR 2600 are one- to two-cylinder vehicles of low weight and low build height, used as the transporter class in Swiss mountain farming for moving materials on steep terrain.

The register lists here 4 versions with 4.9 to 16.2 kW from one- to two-cylinder engines of 258 to 1,144 cm³ displacement, unladen weights from 410 to 1,150 kg, lengths from 2,860 to 4,900 mm, widths from 1,310 to 1,550 mm and heights from 850 to 1,400 mm, at rated speeds of 3,000 to 3,400 rpm; the fuels recorded are petrol and diesel.

The TR transporters supplemented the classic yard tractors in Swiss steep-slope farming and were used mainly in forage transport, viticulture and fruit growing, where manoeuvrability and a low centre of gravity mattered more than draft power, much as with other Swiss makers of mountain transporters.

Used, the TR transporters call for checking engine condition and the carburettor or injection pump, clutch and transmission, brakes on slopes, and the condition of the chassis and load platform; the frame and load-bed mounts are also worth checking. Parts are today offered mainly by Swiss farm-machinery specialists.

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.
