Ritscher D 25 P: air-cooled two-cylinder tractor with an eight-speed gearbox, a top speed of 20 km/h and around 200 units built from the Multitrac series
The D 25 P was built as part of Ritscher's Multitrac series and, according to available records, around 200 units were made, a typical if not especially high number for a small tractor of this period.

The air-cooled two-cylinder engine displaces 1,700 cm³ and drives the wheels through a gearbox with eight forward and four reverse gears. With a 20-litre fuel tank and a top speed of 20 km/h, the D 25 P was built for sustained fieldwork rather than fast road travel.
A gearbox with eight forward and four reverse gears offers considerably more steps than the four- or six-speed setups typical of small tractors, allowing finer matching of travel speed to different implements. The air-cooled design of the two-cylinder engine needed no radiator or water pump, making it low-maintenance.
When buying a used D 25 P, the gearshift with its eight forward gears should be checked for clean engagement in every step, since wear on the shift dogs occurs more often in such finely stepped gearboxes than in simpler ones. The cooling airflow of the two-cylinder engine also deserves a check for fouling, since overheated air-cooled engines quickly lose power. Given the limited production run, it is also worth taking early stock of which spare parts are already missing or have been remade by hand rather than sourced new.

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.
- 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.
