Case-IH JX 60 (A) or Fendt 206 F/FA?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the JX 60 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 206 F/FA has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. 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 JX 60 (A) offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the Fendt 206 F/FA does not (as stated by the sources).
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the JX 60 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 206 F/FA has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the JX 60 (A): lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Case-IH JX60”); the 206 F/FA: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Fendt Farmer 206 F/FA”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
