Porsche Super, Master

Porsche’s 3-cylinder tractors were known as Super, and the 4-cylinder ones as Master. The SAE horsepower of the models imported to Finland was 39 and 55 hp. The Super’s gearbox was initially 5+1. A highway speed exceeding 30 km/h was considered high at the time. The Super Export had a Deutz 8+2-speed gearbox. The production lineup also included versions equipped with a ZF 8+4-speed gearbox. The Masters were finally imported to Finland equipped with the old 5+1-speed gearbox. In 1961, Porsches were equipped with Bosch hydraulics featuring a weight transfer system.

The Porsche production lineup included a wide range of different versions. Most models had versions with, for example, long and short wheelbases. In Finland, the standard equipment also varied. For example, 1000 rpm PTO and a PTO independent of the driving clutch were standard on some versions. A turbine clutch was standard in Finland, though the Super Export was also imported without a turbine clutch. Porsche production ended in 1963, although the brand was Germany’s second best-selling after Deutz.
