Landini R-5500 (DT) "TL 22 N/A" or SAME Minitauro 50?

Which should you choose?

On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Landini R-5500 (DT) "TL 22 N/A": hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on forward gears and PTO speeds.

  • The Landini R-5500 (DT) "TL 22 N/A" suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
  • The Landini R-5500 (DT) "TL 22 N/A" suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 78% (12.5 L/min / 3.3 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.
