SAME numbered range (Treviglio) – early Italian diesel and four-wheel-drive tractors with DT for Doppia Trazione: 240 to 480 DT, two- to four-cylinders of 2.5 to 5.0 litres, 31 to 60 kW, 1.68 to 2.7 t
SAME – Società Anonima Motori Endotermici – was founded in 1942 by Francesco Cassani in Treviglio, Lombardy, and is counted among Italy's pioneers of the diesel tractor and of four-wheel drive in agriculture; the plainly numbered 240 to 480 models belong to the company's early ranges, before SAME moved to named series from the 1970s. The DT abbreviation stands at SAME for Doppia Trazione, meaning four-wheel drive, and the V on the 450/V model for the narrow vineyard version.

The register lists 6 versions with 30.9 to 60.3 kW from two- to four-cylinder diesels of 2,491 to 4,980 cm³, unladen weights from 1,680 to 2,700 kg, lengths from 2,835 to 3,393 mm, widths from 1,602 to 1,891 mm and heights from 1,484 to 1,730 mm; one version is listed at 50 hp.
The numbered range served the Italian post-war market, where the four-wheel drive of the DT models gave an advantage on the hilly farmland of northern Italy; SAME later expanded the brand together with Lamborghini, Hürlimann and Deutz-Fahr into the SDF group that still exists today.
On used tractors, engine and injection pump, clutch and gearbox, on DT models also the front-axle transfer case and the drive shafts, hydraulics and brakes, and sheet metal and frame for rust count; parts now run through the SDF/Same-Deutz-Fahr dealer 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.
