Deutz-Fahr D 6907 A ( C ) or VALMET 605/605-4?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the VALMET 605/605-4: three-point lift.
- The VALMET 605/605-4 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 64% (1,546 kg / 3,408 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 VALMET 605/605-4 has 64% more lift (1,546 kg / 3,408 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr D 6907 A ( C ) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The VALMET 605/605-4 is 19% heavier (540 kg / 1,190 lb) than the Deutz-Fahr D 6907 A ( C ) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- 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 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 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.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range, PTO speeds and PTO independence.
