Vassalli – other models: Argentine combine harvesters outside the named ranges, from the 900 Lider through the 1500 M/H to the Super Arrocera P13, 58 to 212 kW, Cummins, Deutz and Perkins engines
This page gathers the Vassalli combine harvesters the register could not assign to a named range. Vassalli Fabril is a family company from Firmat in the Argentine province of Santa Fe and one of the leading South American makers of combine harvesters. The type logic of the models: the three-digit base types such as 900 and 960 denote earlier development stages, the suffix Lider and Super mark upgraded equipment variants, M/H distinguishes versions for maize (maíz) and sorghum or grain, the Super Arrocera P13 is a version designed specifically for wet rice (arroz) cultivation, with chassis and threshing mechanism adapted accordingly. The engines come mainly from international suppliers – Cummins, Deutz, Perkins and Volvo Penta – as well as from IKA Continental, the Continental engine built under licence in Argentina.

The register lists here 23 versions with 57.9 to 212 kW, that is 77.6 to 284 hp, from four- to six-cylinders; the engines are overwhelmingly diesel, with a few petrol examples.
Alongside John Deere, Case IH and New Holland, Vassalli is one of the few makers that develop and build complete combine harvesters in South America, with a focus on Argentina's Pampas region and exports to Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay; the special versions for rice and maize reflect the diversity of South American cropping systems.
On used machines, operating hours and the condition of the threshing mechanism (concave, drum, sieves), the condition of the chopper and straw walkers, the tightness of the hydraulics, the condition of the supplier engine, and, on the rice versions, the condition of the chassis adapted to flooded fields count; parts run through the Vassalli network in Argentina and neighbouring countries.
