On the lift figure: LS publishes this model's three-point figure as Hitch Lift capacity, lbs (Hitch end) - a measurement taken at the lift points, not 24 inches behind them, which is the basis this site compares implement weight against. LS's own MT122 page shows how far apart the two are: 992 lbs at the hitch end against 728 lbs at 24 inches, about a quarter less. The hitch-end figure is recorded separately and this field is left empty rather than filled with a number measured somewhere else. Confirm the rating against your operator's manual before buying a heavy implement.

Attachment fit for the MT242E is decided by four of these figures: hitch category, PTO horsepower, PTO shaft speed, and implement weight against the three-point lift rating, which this manufacturer does not publish. Implements rated for sub-compact tractors also fit, with capacity to spare. Front-mount attachments require a loader, which this record does not list. Every figure above is read from manufacturer documentation, linked on the page.
