AGCO-ALLIS 9815 or John Deere 7930?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 9815 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 7930 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The John Deere 7930 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 15% (15.9 L/min / 4.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 19% (1,102 kg / 2,429 lb) more three-point lift.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The John Deere 7930 has 15% more hydraulic flow (15.9 L/min / 4.2 gpm) than the AGCO-ALLIS 9815 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The John Deere 7930 has 19% more lift (1,102 kg / 2,429 lb) than the AGCO-ALLIS 9815 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The AGCO-ALLIS 9815 is 11% heavier (852 kg / 1,878 lb) than the John Deere 7930 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The John Deere 7930 offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the AGCO-ALLIS 9815 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The John Deere 7930 is newer: production began 13 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 9815 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 7930 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No call on forward gears: sources disagree on the figure for the 7930.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
