Case-IH Magnum 7210 or Ford TW-20 (A)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Case-IH Magnum 7210: hydraulic flow, three-point lift and maximum permissible mass. It is also ahead on forward gears.
- The Case-IH Magnum 7210 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 82% (49.4 L/min / 13.1 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 96% (3,520 kg / 7,760 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Case-IH Magnum 7210 suits road haulage better on this data: 38% (3,135 kg / 6,911 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.
