Hürlimann H-478.4 Club or ZETOR 8641 (2002-2007)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the H-478.4 Club has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 8641 (2002-2007) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The ZETOR 8641 (2002-2007) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 41% (16.5 L/min / 4.4 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The ZETOR 8641 (2002-2007) suits road haulage better on this data: 33% (10.0 km/h / 6.2 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.
