Hürlimann H-6190 Master or Massey Ferguson MF 3690 (A)?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the H-6190 Master has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 3690 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The Hürlimann H-6190 Master suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 59% (3,180 kg / 7,011 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Hürlimann H-6190 Master suits road haulage better on this data: 11% (1,000 kg / 2,205 lb) more maximum permissible mass and 43% (12.0 km/h / 7.5 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.

- 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.
- Not comparable on power at the PTO shaft: the H-6190 Master has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the MF 3690 (A) 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, hydraulic flow, a creeper range and PTO independence.
