Hermann Lanz D 634 or SAME Delfino 35 (DT)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the D 634 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Delfino 35 (DT) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Hermann Lanz D 634 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 19% (300 kg / 661 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Hermann Lanz D 634 suits road haulage better on this data: 12% (3.1 km/h / 1.9 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 Hermann Lanz D 634 has 19% more lift (300 kg / 661 lb) than the SAME Delfino 35 (DT) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Hermann Lanz D 634 is 27% heavier (380 kg / 838 lb) than the SAME Delfino 35 (DT) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Hermann Lanz D 634 has 12% more top speed (3.1 km/h / 1.9 mph) than the SAME Delfino 35 (DT) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The SAME Delfino 35 (DT) is available with four-wheel drive; the Hermann Lanz D 634 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the D 634 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the Delfino 35 (DT) 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 speeds.
