Case-IH 5130 Maxxum or SAME Silver 100.4 DT?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 5130 Maxxum has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Silver 100.4 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Case-IH 5130 Maxxum suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 29% (16.3 L/min / 4.3 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Case-IH 5130 Maxxum suits road haulage better on this data: 30% (1,800 kg / 3,968 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 Case-IH 5130 Maxxum has 29% more hydraulic flow (16.3 L/min / 4.3 gpm) than the SAME Silver 100.4 DT (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 5130 Maxxum is 17% heavier (720 kg / 1,587 lb) than the SAME Silver 100.4 DT (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH 5130 Maxxum has 30% higher maximum permissible mass (1,800 kg / 3,968 lb) than the SAME Silver 100.4 DT (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The SAME Silver 100.4 DT is newer: production began 6 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 5130 Maxxum has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Silver 100.4 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, a creeper range and PTO independence.
