What does this mean in plain words?

  • The Massey Ferguson 4335 (A) is 30% heavier (795 kg / 1,753 lb) than the Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
  • The Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA has 75% more forward gears (9 gears) than the Massey Ferguson 4335 (A) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
  • The Massey Ferguson 4335 (A) is newer: production began 13 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 top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
  • PTO speeds differ: the Fendt Farmer 275 S/SA 540/750 rpm and the Massey Ferguson 4335 (A) 540/1000 rpm — each offers a speed the other does not; which matters depends on the implement.
  • 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, hydraulic flow, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
