McCormick International Common-Market series: the 624 (A) (1965-1972) with a four-cylinder diesel engine, 3,382 cm³ displacement, 58 hp/42.7 kW output and 205 Nm of torque
McCormick International's Common-Market series took its name from the European Economic Community and targeted farms in the west European market of the 1960s and early 1970s. The 624 (A), a mid-size all-purpose tractor, belongs to this model family built for the European market.

The 624 (A) has a water-cooled four-cylinder diesel engine with 3,382 cm³ displacement, producing 58 hp, or 42.7 kW, at a rated speed of 2,100 rpm, with 205 Nm of torque. At 2,529 kg, with a 2,120 mm wheelbase, 3,530 mm length and 1,815 mm width, it is a solidly sized standard tractor of the mid power class.
With a top speed of 20 km/h, the 624 (A) falls under Germany's driving licence category T. A four-cylinder engine of just over 3.3 litres at a moderate rated speed of 2,100 rpm is built for sustained pulling work in tillage and PTO operation, as required by mid-size arable farms of the period.
When buying a used four-cylinder diesel of this age, checking the injection pump, clutch and gearbox for wear ranks among the most important points, since spare parts for older McCormick International series are not equally available everywhere. The condition of the hydraulic system and the axle bearings should also be checked closely before purchase, along with the wiring and the state of the seat and floor sheet metal.

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.
