John Deere 265 Extra Horsepower Notes

Horsepower note Engine and PTO output are nearly matched on the John Deere 265, so the listed PTO figure stays close to the engine rating.
PTO note With 17 hp at the PTO, the John Deere 265 is best matched to small mower decks, sprayers, light finish mowing and very light PTO jobs; large cutters, hay tools and high-load PTO equipment are outside this power class.
Power-to-weight note At 755 lb and 17 hp, the John Deere 265 works out to about 44.4 lb per engine horsepower, making it light for its power, so traction and ballast can become the limiting factor before engine power.
Engine note The John Deere 265 uses 0.5 L displacement, rated at 2,400 rpm, which helps explain where its horsepower rating comes from.
Torque / RPM note The John Deere 265 lists 2,400 rpm as the rated engine RPM, which is the speed attached to its power rating.
