Deutz-Fahr Agrotron: generations, engines and TTV transmissions
The Deutz-Fahr Agrotron is a broad range of versatile tractors that has been around since 1995, covering both smaller and high-horsepower models. We look at the generations, engines, transmissions, and what to check when buying a used Agrotron.
Agrotron in brief
The name 'Agrotron' has been used by Deutz-Fahr for its tractors since 1995. It covers a wide range of series—from mid-range to high-power tractors designed for farms, contractors, and municipal work.
Due to its long history, you can find various generations, equipment, and power levels of used Agrotrons on the market, so it's crucial to consider the specific series and year of manufacture.
Generations and choice
Earlier generations of Agrotron tractors are simpler, with manual transmissions and less electronics. They are cheaper and often easier to fix, but some have already clocked up a high number of operating hours.
Newer models feature more modern cabs, semi-automatic or continuously variable (TTV) transmissions, and advanced electronics. When choosing, consider your type of work and service availability.
Engines and transmissions
Agrotron tractors are powered by Deutz 4 and 6-cylinder diesel engines. Power ranges from around 100 to over 250 HP, depending on the series and generation.
Transmissions come in several types: manual, semi-automatic (powershift), and continuously variable TTV. TTV is great for smooth operation and fuel efficiency, but repairs can be more expensive than standard manual gearboxes.
What to check when buying a used Agrotron
Check the hour meter and service history. Connect diagnostics (for newer models), check for fault codes and the exhaust gas cleaning system.
Test the transmission in all modes — gear shifting should be smooth. Look for oil leaks around the engine, gearbox and rear axles.
Inspect the front axle, hydraulics, PTO and cabin equipment. If the tractor has worked with a loader, check the condition of the axle and loader mounting.
