Which is better — Kubota L4701 or TYM T3035C?

Kubota L4701 lists higher engine horsepower (47.3 vs 35 HP). That is not a PTO advantage — confirm shaft power separately before buying cutters or tillers. TYM T3035C has more rear lift (2,425 vs 2,320 lb @ 24″) — more headroom for heavier three-point tools. Kubota L4701 needs lighter implements or stricter ballast discipline. Choose Kubota L4701 when you need higher verified PTO (39.3 vs 30 PTO HP) for cutters, tillers, or snow blowers. Choose TYM T3035C when you need more rear lift (2,425 vs 2,320 lb @ 24″) for heavier three-point tools. Use the Fit checker for your heaviest attachment instead of comparing engine HP alone.
