Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31 or ZETOR 16045?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31: hydraulic flow and three-point lift.

  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 65% (22.8 L/min / 6.0 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 34% (1,633 kg / 3,600 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 Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31 has 65% more hydraulic flow (22.8 L/min / 6.0 gpm) than the ZETOR 16045 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31 has 34% more lift (1,633 kg / 3,600 lb) than the ZETOR 16045 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
  • The Deutz-Fahr AgroStar 6.31 is newer: production began 10 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 forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
