LS Tractor Model Comparisions

[dlauffenburger]

As i was comparing the options of different models i logged onto the LS Tractor site (LS Tractor) instead of the LS Tractor US site (LS Tractor USA) to get additional data and noticed that the non US versions have different specifications and options. I attached a copy of the spreadsheet below to show the differences. Has anyone else noticed the difference or determined they are advertising flaws. When you look at the spreadsheet, i highlighted the disparities.

A couple of the big differences are in the stated engine displacements, PTO, and 3 Point Hitch modes.

Thoughts / Comments.

I have seen both sites. I don't thinks anything is a misprint. Like most cars imported into the US have things that are changed for what the people want in the US. There is business of buying gray cars and tractors overseas then building up to me our regs. I don't plan on self importing a LS so I don't miss a 3 speed PTO.

My 2010 model P 7010C has the 20f/20r with creeper like the Asis model now. I guess they dropped that from the newer model.

Gary,

Thanks for the info. Reading the P7010 data it looks like the controls for hydralic and 3 PH are electronic vice mechanical linkage, is that the case on your tractor? If so have you had any issues?

The control levers are mechanical linkage however it has a electronic gizmo that allows you to raise the lift arms without moving the linkage lever. You can set the lift to whatever height you want it and then when you want to lift up the attachment, you move the electronic control and it raises to full height, push a button and it drops back to the pre-set position of the mechanical lever.. Pretty neat little item.

When you say hydraulic do you mean the FEL controls. I have never taken off the panel to look at that as if is fully enclosed in plastic. It could be electronic but it feels mechanical. Will have to look at it next time I feel like disassembling something.

Gary,

No need to tear anything apart, The sales flyer states "implement controlled electroniclly" next to a photo of the 3PH control lever so i think your description of the 3PH controls answers my questions.

Thanks again for your time,
Dave
