Deutz-Fahr D 3607 or UTB U-340 (DTC)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the D 3607 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the U-340 (DTC) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Deutz-Fahr D 3607 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 61% (13.2 L/min / 3.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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 D 3607 has 61% more hydraulic flow (13.2 L/min / 3.5 gpm) than the UTB U-340 (DTC) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Deutz-Fahr D 3607 is 23% heavier (365 kg / 805 lb) than the UTB U-340 (DTC) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The UTB U-340 (DTC) is available with four-wheel drive; the Deutz-Fahr D 3607 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The UTB U-340 (DTC) is newer: production began 5 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 difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the D 3607 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the U-340 (DTC) 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, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
