This range gathers Holder's early single-axle tractors, which sit in a second maker record of the register: E 6, E 7 and E 11, the variants EB, ED and EF and the post-war types BED II and ED 10 – machines with which the crop-protection maker from Metzingen relieved the vintners and gardeners of the Swabian Alb and the Neckar valley of hand labour from the 1930s. The type logic: E stands for the single-axle tractor (Einachser), the number for the hp class – E 6 about 6 hp, E 11 about 11 hp – and the second letter for the engine: B for petrol, D for diesel, F for the bought-in engine of a supplier such as ILO or Sachs; G on the E 6 G marks a version variant. The engines are single-cylinders – two-stroke petrol engines on 1:25 mixture revving to 3,000 rpm, and small four-stroke diesels running slowly – with displacements from 191 to 499 cm³.

The register lists 8 versions with 3.8 to 7.5 kW from single-cylinders of 191 to 499 cm³, weights from 108 to 520 kg, widths from 600 mm and heights from 820 to 1,030 mm.

Until the 1960s the single-axle tractor was the smallholding's draught power: it pulled plough, tiller and trailer, drove pump and sprayer via the belt pulley and was guided by handlebars – the Holder E types are among the most-built of this class in southern Germany.

Used, they are collectors' and enthusiasts' pieces; compression and ignition, clutch, gearbox and belt pulley, the condition of handlebars and implements and parts supply through vintage specialists count.
