Deutz-Fahr DX 86 or Landini 7800-Turbo (DT)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Landini 7800-Turbo (DT): hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears.
- The Landini 7800-Turbo (DT) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 29% (11.4 L/min / 3.0 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 Landini 7800-Turbo (DT) has 29% more hydraulic flow (11.4 L/min / 3.0 gpm) than the Deutz-Fahr DX 86 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 7800-Turbo (DT) has 78% more forward gears (14 gears) than the Deutz-Fahr DX 86 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 7800-Turbo (DT) is newer: production began 5 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 three-point lift (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, 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 top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, maximum permissible mass and a creeper range.
