John Deere 5410 (A) or VALMET 665?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the John Deere 5410 (A) is ahead on hydraulic flow; the VALMET 665 is ahead on three-point lift.
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 John Deere 5410 (A) has 18% more hydraulic flow (9.3 L/min / 2.5 gpm) than the VALMET 665 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The VALMET 665 has 57% more lift (940 kg / 2,072 lb) than the John Deere 5410 (A) (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The VALMET 665 is 21% heavier (559 kg / 1,232 lb) than the John Deere 5410 (A) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The John Deere 5410 (A) is newer: production began 5 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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 forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the figures vary by configuration and the ranges overlap.
- 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 rpm).
- Even on drive: every machine is available with four-wheel drive.
- 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.
