Schmiedag Hansa 50: single-cylinder small tractor with 350 cc displacement, 6.6 kW output and 450 kg weight, built since 1952
The Hansa 50 belongs to the class of simple small tractors built during the 1950s for smaller farms, market gardens and orchards, at a time when many such holdings were only gradually switching to motorised pulling power.

The Hansa 50 is powered by a single-cylinder engine of 350 cc with either air or water cooling, producing 6.6 kW (9 hp) at 2,000 to 3,000 rpm. The engine runs on a petrol mix or on diesel. At a weight of 450 kg, a height of 850 mm, a length of 2,300 mm and a width of 550 mm, the tractor reaches a design top speed of 11 km/h.
A weight of just 450 kg and a width of 550 mm mark a very small, narrow tractor, the kind used between tight tree rows in orchards or in market gardens with limited space, rather than for field work on open arable land. The 11 km/h top speed falls within today's L driving licence category, and neither four-wheel drive nor a three-point hitch featured on machines this small.
Buying a used single-cylinder this small and this old, the condition of the cooling and a careful check of the fuel variant against the paperwork deserve particular attention, since the petrol-mix and diesel versions call for different maintenance. Also worth checking are rust damage, the completeness of original parts and the condition of the simple mechanical brakes.
