Dexheimer SC 222 to 370 – the vineyard tractors from Rhenish Hesse: the first digit as cylinder count, the following as hp class, SC as range, turbo as upgrade, two- and three-cylinder diesels of 1.5 to 3.1 litres
Dexheimer of Dexheim in Rhenish Hesse is one of the small makers that supplied German viticulture with narrow-track tractors – tractors about one metre wide for the vine rows of the region, in which standard tractors cannot drive and for which the big makers long had no offer. The type logic of the SC range: the first digit gives the cylinder count, the following ones the hp class – 222 SC a two-cylinder of about 22 hp, 250 SC a two-cylinder of 50 hp, 342 SC a three-cylinder of about 42 hp, 370 SC turbo a turbocharged three-cylinder of 70 hp – SC marks the range. The engines are bought-in two- and three-cylinder diesels of 1.5 to 3.1 litres at 2,250 to 2,500 rpm, as small makers source from Deutz, Perkins or Lombardini; the machines themselves are narrow, low and built with a low centre of gravity for the slopes on the Rhine and Nahe.

The register lists 7 versions with 22 to 48 kW from two- and three-cylinders of 1,488 to 3,095 cm³, unladen weights from 1,280 to 1,800 kg, lengths from 2,340 to 2,760 mm, widths from 930 to 1,020 mm and heights from 1,950 to 1,980 mm.
Dexheimer tractors are still at work in the vineyards of Rhenish Hesse, the Palatinate and the Moselle today and stand in a row with Holder, Krieger and the Fendt 200 V; the production numbers are small, the vintners' loyalty to the brand great.
On used tractors, operating hours, engine condition (parts through the engine maker), clutch and shuttle, steering and axles, PTO and hydraulics for sprayer, leaf trimmer and mulcher and parts supply for the machine, which depends on the maker, count.
