Hürlimann H-607 XA or Renault 70-14 LB?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Hürlimann H-607 XA: hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears.
- The Hürlimann H-607 XA suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 25% (9.4 L/min / 2.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “similar machines”. 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 Hürlimann H-607 XA has 25% more hydraulic flow (9.4 L/min / 2.5 gpm) than the Renault 70-14 LB (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-607 XA is 17% heavier (430 kg / 948 lb) than the Renault 70-14 LB (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-607 XA has 67% more forward gears (8 gears) than the Renault 70-14 LB (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- 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 top speed (both top speed forward, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- Even on PTO speeds: the same speeds (540, 1000 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Same era: production began within 5 years of each other. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- No figure on record for every machine, so no call on: fuel efficiency at the shaft, drawbar power, three-point lift, maximum permissible mass, a creeper range and PTO independence.
