Yes, there are also Baby-Schlütertjes! It doesn't always have to be the big mastodons that I photograph. Even in the early 1970s, about a good 40% of Schlüter sales still came from tractors under 60hp. This one in the photo was the second smallest Schlüter in the range at the time, the Super 450. You can see that Schlüter concentrated more on the larger ones in this tractor. Here and there you can see some oversized large parts, which come from the larger Supers and Compacts, such as e.g. the rear fenders where you can get a nice rim 30 underneath without too much tinkering :P. So a big nightmare for many manufacturers was when ZF pulled the plug on the A200 tranmission series. This was mostly used in tractors under 60hp. Schlüter then went on to build tractors above 70hp, where other brands were looking for an alternative and they generally just started producing a self-developed tranmission themselves.
