Eicher Mammut 3012 A or Ford 5000 (A)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Mammut 3012 A has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 5000 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Eicher Mammut 3012 A suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 72% (16.8 L/min / 4.4 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 Eicher Mammut 3012 A has 72% more hydraulic flow (16.8 L/min / 4.4 gpm) than the Ford 5000 (A) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Eicher Mammut 3012 A is 25% heavier (621 kg / 1,369 lb) than the Ford 5000 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Eicher Mammut 3012 A offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Ford 5000 (A) does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Eicher Mammut 3012 A is newer: production began 5 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.

- 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 independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the Mammut 3012 A has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 5000 (A) 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 and a creeper range.
