Hürlimann H-6165 Master or SAME Galaxy 170 DT?
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 Galaxy 170 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The SAME Galaxy 170 DT suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 11% (6.5 L/min / 1.7 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Hürlimann H-6165 Master 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The SAME Galaxy 170 DT has 11% more hydraulic flow (6.5 L/min / 1.7 gpm) than the Hürlimann H-6165 Master (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-6165 Master has 33% more top speed (10.0 km/h / 6.2 mph) than the SAME Galaxy 170 DT (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Hürlimann H-6165 Master offers 540 rpm at the PTO, which the SAME Galaxy 170 DT does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Hürlimann H-6165 Master is newer: production began 8 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- Even on weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- 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 Galaxy 170 DT has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- Not comparable on three-point lift: the H-6165 Master: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Hürlimann H 6165”); the Galaxy 170 DT: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “SAME Galaxy 170”) — not the same quantity, basis and condition.
- 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.
