About
Guldner AK.
It all started in 1956 with a
cooperation between Guldner and Fahr, both well known European
tractor makers. It was decided that Guldner made the smaller ones
below 20hp an Fahr the bigger tractors. Both companies had much the
same models in their line, under different names and with some minor
differences. For example the Guldner-tractor A 2KN, was similar to
the Fahr D 88ES. From 1959 Guldner had the A 2 KN tractor
ready. It small tractor based on a 13hp at 2475rpm strong two
cylinder air-cooled four stroke diesel at 886 ccm
displacement.
It was a light tractor only weighting in at 890 kg, it had six gears
forward and two reverse from it's ZF gear box. The model was called
the "Spessart" and was in production until 1965. An even
smaller tractor had already been in production sins 1956, the model AX
or A 1 X, with only 800 kg net weight. This model went under
the name "Sprinter". It had a air-cooled one cylinder diesel
on 636ccm displacement, producing 11 hp at 2500 rpm. It was on many
points the same as the A2KN. You could choose whatever colour you
wanted as long as it was green or blue.
