Subcompact cars don’t provide as much power or capacity for loader lift capacity than larger framed models such as the LS MT3 series do, offering more horsepower, larger tires, and greater loader lift capacity than subcompact cars. Be sure to look for 3pt hitches rated 24″ or greater; otherwise opt for non-emission models.

When comparing tractors, keep two horsepower ratings in mind when making comparisons: engine and PTO (power take off). Engine horsepower measures what your tractor produces while PTO horsepower refers to how much of that output can be put towards working implements.
As you decide which size tractor best meets your needs, consider what tasks will be performed around your home and property. If using it for work purposes we suggest opting for one size larger to account for that. It should also be remembered that tractors with loaders have a greater lifting capacity due to the additional weight associated with carrying loads than ones without them.

When comparing tractors it is essential to look at both engine horsepower and PTO (power take off) horsepower. Engine horsepower measures the amount of power available when nothing is connected to its three point hitch while PTO horsepower indicates how much of that power the tractor can utilize when connected.
Full size compact tractors like the LS MT3 and XR4100 series provide 40-60 horsepower for handling hay equipment or 6-7′ implements, and often feature front end loaders rated to lift more than 2,000 lbs at pivot pins.

A tractor’s power take off (PTO) shaft allows it to attach equipment such as mowers and rototillers. Modern tractors also often feature mid-PTOs for increased versatility.
Based on your planned use for your tractor, a PTO capable of at least 540 RPM may be essential. With more power available at a higher RPM rating, more implements can be attached without losing their effectiveness.
Size should also be taken into consideration; if you need to cover a great deal of ground during mowing, a larger deck size may be beneficial in lifting heavier implements like backhoes and box blades for landscaping and construction work – and even with hay management tasks.
