Covers the LA-435 loader's quick-attach and lift capacity, the 9-speed gear transmission, PTO outputs compared to the B2601, comfort trade-offs made to hit a lower price, tire choices, three-point hitch, and a backhoe add-on price. Useful for shoppers deciding between B-series models on budget and drivetrain preference.

It has the exact same rear and mid-PTO output as the B2601, even though the B2401 is about 22 horsepower versus the B2601's 25, because gear drive doesn't lose power to a hydrostatic pump.
It uses the LA-435 loader, giving 435 kilograms of lift capacity, a little over 900 pounds, with a quick attach bucket system.
It has no tilt steering column, no armrests, and no seat suspension beyond what little is already there, to make it more affordable than the B2301 or B2601.
