The air-cooled single-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 1,330 cc and produces 11 kW (15 hp) at 1,650 rpm. The F1L514/2-N is 2,510 mm long, 1,600 mm wide and 1,540 mm high, with a wheelbase of 1,585 mm and a weight of 1,345 kg. Its top speed is 20 km/h.
At just over 11 kW with a single-cylinder engine, the F1L514/2-N sits in the smallest power class of standard tractors, sufficient for smaller holdings, grassland and lighter PTO work. Its comparatively wide track of 1,600 mm points to a design for general field work rather than narrow row crops.
When buying a used air-cooled single-cylinder diesel, check the condition of the fan and cooling fins, since either can cause overheating if worn or clogged. Beyond that, check the injection pump and nozzle, the clutch and gearbox, the PTO clutch, and rust on the bonnet and wings. Parts for air-cooled single-cylinder engines of this era are supplied by the Deutz parts trade and specialist dealers in classic tractors.
