Renault 80-34 PX or VALMET 802/802-4?
Which should you choose?
The figures split: the VALMET 802/802-4 is ahead on hydraulic flow; the Renault 80-34 PX is ahead on three-point lift, forward gears and PTO speeds.
- The Renault 80-34 PX suits PTO-driven implements (mowers, balers, pumps) better on this data: offers 1000 rpm.
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 VALMET 802/802-4 has 35% more hydraulic flow (11.1 L/min / 2.9 gpm) than the Renault 80-34 PX (both pump flow, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 80-34 PX has 32% more lift (925 kg / 2,039 lb) than the VALMET 802/802-4 (both lift at the hitch ends, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 80-34 PX has 50% more forward gears (4 gears) than the VALMET 802/802-4 (both forward gears, as stated by the source).
- The Renault 80-34 PX offers 1000 rpm at the PTO, which the VALMET 802/802-4 does not (as stated by the sources).
- The Renault 80-34 PX is newer: production began 9 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 weight (both unladen weight, as stated by the source): the difference is under the 10% threshold, too small to call.
- 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.
- 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.
