IMT 569 De Luxe or International Harvester 584?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the International Harvester 584 is ahead on hydraulic flow and PTO speeds; the IMT 569 De Luxe is ahead on three-point lift and top speed.
- The International Harvester 584 suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The IMT 569 De Luxe suits road haulage better on this data: 20% (5.0 km/h / 3.1 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.
