Martin Greckl – other models: collective page for small single-cylinder diesel tractors outside named series, 10 hp and 15/16 hp, 7.4 to 11 kW, around 1,200 kg
This page gathers Martin Greckl tractors that the register could not assign to any named series. The models are named directly after their engine's rated output — 10 hp and 15/16 hp — as was common among smaller farm machinery makers in the first half of the 20th century. Both versions listed here carry single-cylinder diesel engines. Such small tractors were usually built without a cab and with simple mechanical power transmission, serving smaller farms as a lower-cost alternative to the tractors of the major brands.

The register lists 2 versions here with 7.4 to 11 kW from single-cylinder engines of 1,192 to 1,263 cm³, an unladen weight of 1,200 kg and a rated speed of 1,500 to 1,600 rpm.
As small single-cylinder tractors of around 10 to 16 hp, these models belong to the lower power class of farm tractors of their era, of the kind regionally offered by numerous smaller makers alongside the major brands. Their simple design made maintenance and repair easier even without a specialist workshop, which helped such small production runs spread.
When buying one of these simple single-cylinder tractors, attention should go to the condition of the engine, injection pump and cooling system, the tightness of the fuel lines, chassis rust, and the function of the clutch and transmission, as well as the integrity of the steering and brake linkages, which are purely mechanical on these early small tractors; spare parts from such small makers today are generally only available through specialist vintage-vehicle 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.
- 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.
