Schlüter ASL – early small tractors from Munich-Freising: ASL 130 and ASL 180, single-cylinder diesels of 1,256 to 1,610 cm³, 9.5 to 13.2 kW, unladen weights from 1,115 to 1,250 kg at 1,500 rpm
Anton Schlüter München is one of the traditional German tractor makers and later moved its tractor production to Freising, before the brand became known in the 1970s and 1980s for very powerful large tractors; the ASL range with the ASL 130 and the ASL 180 instead belongs to the brand's smaller, early models. Both are single-cylinder diesels of comparatively small displacement and unladen weights of little more than a tonne.

The register lists here 2 versions with 9.5 to 13.2 kW, or 13 to 18 hp, from a single cylinder of 1,256 to 1,610 cm³ at 1,500 revolutions per minute. Unladen weights run from 1,115 to 1,250 kg, lengths from 2,440 to 2,575 mm and widths from 1,580 to 1,605 mm; overall height runs from 1,560 mm without to 2,180 mm with the steel cab roof.
Small tractors of this power class served in the post-war period chiefly smaller farming operations for which a full multi-cylinder farm tractor was too expensive or too large, and at Schlüter mark the opposite end from the much later, very large tractors the brand became known for.
On a used ASL, the condition and compression of the single cylinder, the tightness of the cooling system and injection pump, the state of the gearbox and steering, on versions with the steel cab roof its condition and mounting, and corrosion on the frame and mudguards matter.

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.
