The MINITAURO series from SAME includes the MINITAURO 50. Production: 1967–1972. The engine delivers 48 hp (35.3 kW), has 3 cylinders, with a displacement of 2,552 cm³. Torque is 157 Nm. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm. The machine is 3,270 mm long, 1,530 mm wide and 2,360 mm high. The unladen weight is 1,750 kg. The wheelbase measures 1,970 mm. Ground clearance is 340 mm. Top speed is 25 km/h. The tank holds 50 litres. Transmission: 8 V/4 R. The engine is air-cooled. Tyres: front 5.50-16 ASF (DT: 8.00-20 AS), rear 11-28 AS. The fuel is diesel. The bore measures 95 mm. The stroke is 120 mm. The compression ratio is 16.5:1. Maximum torque is reached at 1,569 rpm. Construction: unit construction (no separate frame). The gearbox offers 8 forward gears. There are also 4 reverse gears. Injection pressure is 176 bar. The linkage is category I. Rated output across the SAME range ranges from 12.5 to 269 hp; the MINITAURO 50 sits at the bottom of that range with 48 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the DA 47 (DT) below it with 47 hp and the 450/V (DT) above it with 50 hp. Rated output across the SAME range ranges from 12.5 to 269 hp; here the MINITAURO 50 sits at the bottom of that range with 48 hp. 265 SAME models across 29 series are on record.

SAME MINITAURO – compact three-cylinder range from Treviglio: MINITAURO 50 and MINITAURO 60, 35 to 41 kW, displacements from 2,552 to 3,117 cm³, unladen weights from 1,750 to 1,910 kg, torque 157 to 197 Nm

The MINITAURO range in the register comprises the MINITAURO 50 and the MINITAURO 60; as with many SAME ranges, the number in the name indicates the approximate hp class. The range was built at the parent plant in Treviglio near Bergamo, home of the brand founded in 1942 by Francesco Cassani and today part of the SAME Deutz-Fahr group, which often names its ranges after animals or mythological figures, as the name Minitauro also suggests.

The register lists here 2 versions with 35.3 to 41.2 kW, or 48 to 56 hp, from a three-cylinder of 2,552 to 3,117 cm³ at 2,200 revolutions per minute and a torque of 157 to 197 Nm. Unladen weights run from 1,750 to 1,910 kg, lengths from 3,270 to 3,400 mm, widths from 1,530 to 1,685 mm and height is 2,360 mm.

With unladen weights under 2 tonnes and compact dimensions, the MINITAURO is among the smaller tractors of the SAME brand, used in fruit growing and viticulture, on smaller holdings and for work needing a tight turning radius.

On a used MINITAURO, operating hours and the condition of the three-cylinder diesel, the function of clutch and shuttle, tightness of the hydraulics and PTO, and corrosion on mudguards and steps given work between narrow rows matter; parts run through the SAME Deutz-Fahr group network.

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.
