Ford 1310 (A) or Warchalowski WT-21?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 1310 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the WT-21 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Warchalowski WT-21 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 31% (200 kg / 441 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Ford 1310 (A) suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: four-wheel drive.
- The Warchalowski WT-21 suits road haulage better on this data: 40% (8.0 km/h / 5.0 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Warchalowski WT-21 has 31% more lift (200 kg / 441 lb) than the Ford 1310 (A) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Ford 1310 (A) has 100% more forward gears (6 gears) than the Warchalowski WT-21 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Warchalowski WT-21 has 40% more top speed (8.0 km/h / 5.0 mph) than the Ford 1310 (A) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Ford 1310 (A) is available with four-wheel drive; the Warchalowski WT-21 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Ford 1310 (A) is newer: production began 15 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540 rpm).
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the 1310 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the WT-21 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, hydraulic flow, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
