Hürlimann H-6165 Master or Massey Ferguson MF 7485?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the H-6165 Master has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 7485 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Massey Ferguson 7485 suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 112% (64.5 L/min / 17.0 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Massey Ferguson 7485 suits road haulage better on this data: 41% (3,500 kg / 7,716 lb) more maximum permissible mass.
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 7485 has 112% more hydraulic flow (64.5 L/min / 17.0 gpm) than the Hürlimann H-6165 Master (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 7485 is 18% heavier (1,040 kg / 2,293 lb) than the Hürlimann H-6165 Master (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 7485 has 41% higher maximum permissible mass (3,500 kg / 7,716 lb) than the Hürlimann H-6165 Master (both maximum permissible mass, as stated by the source).
- The Massey Ferguson 7485 is newer: production began 13 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Transmissions differ in kind: the Hürlimann H-6165 Master has 27 forward gears and the Massey Ferguson 7485 is stepless (CVT) — not called.
- 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 PTO independence: every PTO is independent.
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the H-6165 Master has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 7485 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, three-point lift and a creeper range.
