How the check works
Horsepower is checked against the range the implement maker publishes, using PTO HP or engine HP the way the maker states it. Weight is checked against the 3-point lift 24 in behind the lift points, where an implement's weight sits. Anything the maker does not publish is shown as unknown, not estimated.
