Kramer 714 or ZETOR 7245 H?
Which should you choose?
The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the 714 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 7245 H has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.
- The ZETOR 7245H suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 77% (24.6 L/min / 6.5 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
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 ZETOR 7245H has 77% more hydraulic flow (24.6 L/min / 6.5 gpm) than the Kramer 714 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 7245H is 24% heavier (735 kg / 1,620 lb) than the Kramer 714 (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 7245H has 67% more forward gears (8 gears) than the Kramer 714 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The ZETOR 7245H offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Kramer 714 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The ZETOR 7245H is newer: production began 14 years later. We hold no parts-availability data, so there is no call on parts.
- 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 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 714 has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 7245 H 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 714: lift at an unstated point, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Kramer 714”); the 7245 H: lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source (Traktorenlexikon, “Zetor 7245 H”) — 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 and a creeper range.
