Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) or Leyland 255?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L): hydraulic flow. It is also ahead on top speed, PTO speeds and drive.
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 22% (6.6 L/min / 1.7 gpm) more hydraulic flow.
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) suits road haulage better on this data: 15% (4.0 km/h / 2.5 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.

What does this mean in plain words?
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) has 22% more hydraulic flow (6.6 L/min / 1.7 gpm) than the Leyland 255 (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Leyland 255 is 17% heavier (350 kg / 772 lb) than the Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) (both unladen weight, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) has 15% more top speed (4.0 km/h / 2.5 mph) than the Leyland 255 (both top speed forward, as stated by the source).
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the Leyland 255 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) is available with four-wheel drive; the Leyland 255 is two-wheel drive (as stated by the sources).
- The Landini 5830 (DT) TL-22 N/G (TL-DT/L) is newer: production began 10 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 three-point lift (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- Even on forward gears (both forward gears, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 25% threshold, too small to call.
- 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.
