SDF Hürlimann Prince-325 DT: four-wheel-drive compact three-cylinder tractor rated at 18.4 kW, 1,118 cc displacement and 1,060 kg weight from the first Prince range

Hürlimann was an independent Swiss tractor brand that became part of the same corporate group as SAME, Deutz-Fahr and Lamborghini and continued under its own name. The first Prince range occupied a compact power segment within it, aimed at smaller farms, orchards and grassland upkeep.

The Prince-325 DT is powered by a water-cooled three-cylinder engine of 1,118 cc, producing 18.4 kW (25 hp) at 3,000 rpm. The DT suffix, as usual with manufacturers from the same corporate group, stands for doppia trazione, meaning four-wheel drive. At a weight of 1,060 kg, a wheelbase of 1,540 mm and a width of 1,120 mm, the tractor reaches a design top speed of 25 km/h. Height stands at 1,960 mm and length at 2,690 mm. The engine runs on diesel.

A three-cylinder of this size with four-wheel drive and a weight of just over a tonne marks a compact all-purpose tractor, the kind used for grassland upkeep, orchard work and light drawbar tasks on smaller plots. The 25 km/h top speed falls within the L driving licence category, the power take-off runs at the standard 540 rpm, and the three-point hitch at this size typically takes category 1 implements.

Buying a used compact tractor this small, the engagement of the front axle for four-wheel drive deserves particular attention, as do the condition of the hydraulic hoses and the PTO bearings. Since such machines often worked in orchards with a tight turning radius, checking the steering and the front axle bearings also belongs at inspection.

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.
