Fendt Farmer 412 Vario or ZETOR 11741?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the Farmer 412 Vario has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 11741 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

  • The Fendt Farmer 412 Vario suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 79% (50.8 L/min / 13.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
  • The Fendt Farmer 412 Vario suits road haulage better on this data: 25% (10.0 km/h / 6.2 mph) more top speed.

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.
