Are these numbers invented?

No. Engine HP, weight, and rear lift come from catalog Facts; PTO/hitch only from verified overlays. Missing Facts show as — — we never invent shaft ratings.

How do I check attachments?

Open the Fit checker with John Deere 1R-25 or TYM T2025P, pick an attachment type and model, and read Pass/Fail/Partial on hitch, PTO, and lift.

John Deere 1R-25 vs TYM T2025P

Both sit in the Sub-Compact class with similar engine horsepower (23 vs 24.7 HP). Below: catalog Facts for engine horsepower, weight, and rear lift; PTO and hitch only when verified. The decision points call out who leads on each Fact — engine HP is not a substitute for PTO HP.

Engine horsepower is not PTO horsepower. Missing Facts show as — — we never invent shaft ratings.

How to choose

TYM T2025P lists higher engine horsepower (24.7 vs 23 HP). That is not a PTO advantage — confirm shaft power separately before buying cutters or tillers.
The gap vs John Deere 1R-25 is small (~1.7 HP) — rear lift or hitch class often matter more day to day.
TYM T2025P is heavier (2,207 vs 1,872 lb operating weight) — usually more stability and traction; John Deere 1R-25 stays easier to maneuver in tight yards.
John Deere 1R-25 has more rear lift (915 vs 560 lb @ 24″) — more headroom for heavier three-point tools. TYM T2025P needs lighter implements or stricter ballast discipline.
Hitch differs: John Deere 1R-25 (Limited Category I) vs TYM T2025P (Category I). Implement sheets must name the matching class — adapters do not add lift.
Verified PTO horsepower is essentially even (18.2 PTO HP) — heavy PTO tools then hinge on lift and frame mass.
Next step: open the Fit checker with the tractor that wins on your heaviest implement, and screen hitch, PTO, and lift against that attachment.

When to pick each

Choose John Deere 1R-25 when you need more rear lift (915 vs 560 lb @ 24″) for heavier three-point tools, lower operating weight (1,872 vs 2,207 lb) for tight yards, or implement sheets that explicitly list Limited Category I.

Choose TYM T2025P when you need more frame mass (2,207 vs 1,872 lb) for traction and stability, or implement sheets that explicitly list Category I.
