Fiat 44-28 or Schlüter Profi Trac 3000 TVL?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 44-28 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Profi Trac 3000 TVL has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Fiat 44-28 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 163% (55.4 L/min / 14.6 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Schlüter Profi Trac 3000 TVL suits road haulage better on this data: 34% (8.4 km/h / 5.2 mph) more top speed.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. 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.
