Case-IH CX 100 or John Deere 3350 (A)?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the Case-IH CX 100 is ahead on hydraulic flow; the John Deere 3350 (A) is ahead on maximum permissible mass.
- The Case-IH CX 100 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 16% (8.5 L/min / 2.2 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The John Deere 3350 (A) suits road haulage better on this data: 12% (700 kg / 1,543 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 CX 100 has 16% more hydraulic flow (8.5 L/min / 2.2 gpm) than the John Deere 3350 (A) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The John Deere 3350 (A) has 12% higher maximum permissible mass (700 kg / 1,543 lb) than the Case-IH CX 100 (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The Case-IH CX 100 is newer: production began 12 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on power at the PTO shaft (both power at the PTO, claimed): the difference is under the 10% threshold for claimed figures, too small to call.
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- 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 PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the CX 100: lift through the full range at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Case-IH CX100”); the 3350 (A): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “John Deere 3350”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No call on forward gears: sources disagree on the figure for the CX 100.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power and a creeper range.
