As long as the measurement is clear and is an industry standard measurement, we are fine. Having said that, I do wish there was one standard, not several. A person should not have to try to compare capacity at the pins to capacity at bucket center with another brand. Bucket center is a better method in my opinion
if loaders were only available with buckets, and
only one bucket was made per loader.
When you install an optional bucket, or the optional forks, or the optional bale spear...all the sudden the pin capacity becomes the best measurement, hands down.
Other manufactures have games they play, like using the
HP rating at 3200
rpm on a diesel, where we rate ours normally around 2500
rpm, less on the bigger tractors. If we spin the engines tight, we can list a higher
HP, but who uses a diesel tractor at that sort of
rpm? A 25
HP tractor at 2500 might make 30HP at 3200...see what I mean?
