Hürlimann D-180 (A) or Massey Ferguson MF 3060 (A)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Massey Ferguson 3060 (A): hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears and top speed.
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 43% (15.5 L/min / 4.1 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 23% (531 kg / 1,170 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) has 43% more hydraulic flow (15.5 L/min / 4.1 gpm) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) has 23% more lift (531 kg / 1,170 lb) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).

- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) has 167% more forward gears (20 gears) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) has 20% more top speed (5.0 km/h / 3.1 mph) than the Hürlimann D-180 (A) (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 3060 (A) is newer: production began 13 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 PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- 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, a creeper range and PTO independence.
