Landini 8800 (DT) or Renault 681 (S)?
Which should you choose?
On performance, every comparable figure that differs favours the Landini 8800 (DT): hydraulic flow and three-point lift. It is also ahead on forward gears, top speed, PTO speeds and drive.
- The Landini 8800 (DT) suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
- The Landini 8800 (DT) suits loader and hydraulic implement work better on this data: 79% (22.7 L/min / 6.0 gpm) more hydraulic flow and 39% (945 kg / 2,083 lb) more three-point lift.
- The Landini 8800 (DT) suits heavy draft work (ploughing, cultivating) better on this data: 34% (960 kg / 2,116 lb) heavier and four-wheel drive.
- The Landini 8800 (DT) 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.
