Schlüter Super – the big tractors from Freising, from the 1050 V to the 1800 TVL: type code, power, end in 1993
Schlüter of Freising was Germany's maker of big tractors: while the volume brands stopped at 100 hp, Schlüter built tractors with six- and eight-cylinder engines of its own manufacture from the 1960s onward, mostly in small numbers and to customer order. The Super series is the core of that programme and in the register runs from the Super 1050 V to the 1800 TVL.

The type designation reads clearly: the number follows output, the letters describe technology and equipment – V for four-wheel drive, T for turbocharging, L for the version with air suspension or a comfort cab, LS for the late development stage with a powershift gearbox, Special for special equipment. In the register the range spans 25.6 to 206 kW, 2,945 to 11,413 cm³ of displacement with three to eight cylinders and 2,145 to 9,600 kg unladen; top speed reaches 44.2 km/h.
Production periods are recorded in the register partly to the month and end in 1993 – the year Schlüter stopped tractor production after a contract to build for another maker could no longer sustain the brand.
Used Supers are sought-after machines, often still working in heavy haulage or with contractors. When buying, engine and gearbox count – parts are available through specialists but are not cheap – as does complete documentation, because many vehicles are one-offs with differing equipment.

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.
