Ford 6710 or OLIVER 1465?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Ford 6710: hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears, top speed and PTO speeds.

  • The Ford 6710 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
  • The Ford 6710 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 193% (45.4 L/min / 12.0 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 103% (2,155 kg / 4,751 lb) more three-point lift.
  • The Ford 6710 suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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.
