John Deere 125 Extra Horsepower Notes
Horsepower note
Engine and PTO output are nearly matched on the John Deere 125, so the listed PTO figure stays close to the engine rating.
PTO note
With 20 hp at the PTO, the John Deere 125 is best matched to finish mowing, light-duty rotary cutting, light tilling and small utility PTO jobs; heavy hay tools, large augers and high-load PTO equipment are not the natural match for this power class.
Drawbar note
The John Deere 125 combines 16.5 hp drawbar horsepower with 450 lb operating weight, so traction and ballast can matter as much as power for pulling jobs.
Power-to-weight note
The John Deere 125’s weight-to-power figure is about 22.5 lb per engine horsepower; that means it is light for its power, so traction and ballast can become the limiting factor before engine power.
Engine note
The John Deere 125’s 30.6 cu in engine makes 20 hp, or about 0.7 hp per litre.
Official information note
