Fiat 60-56 LM (DT) or New Holland TN 60 DA/SA?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the New Holland TN 60 DA/SA: hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears and PTO speeds.
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 43% (14.2 L/min / 3.8 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 40% (690 kg / 1,521 lb) more three-point lift.
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 New Holland TN 60 DA/SA has 43% more hydraulic flow (14.2 L/min / 3.8 gpm) than the Fiat 60-56 LM (DT) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA has 40% more lift (690 kg / 1,521 lb) than the Fiat 60-56 LM (DT) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA has 33% more forward gears (4 gears) than the Fiat 60-56 LM (DT) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Fiat 60-56 LM (DT) does not (as stated by the sources).
- The New Holland TN 60 DA/SA is newer: production began 15 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 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 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.
