John Deere 8335RT Extra Horsepower Notes
| Horsepower note | The John Deere 8335RT shows 335 hp at the engine and 315.4 hp at the PTO, which is a small drop from engine power to PTO power for a high-horsepower tractor. |
|---|---|
| PTO note | With 315.4 hp at the PTO, the John Deere 8335RT is best matched to large PTO-driven equipment where the implement horsepower requirement matters more than the engine rating; large implements still need to be matched by PTO requirement, ballast, traction and transmission setup. |
| Drawbar note | For plows, ground tools and pull-type loads, the John Deere 8335RT’s 250.6 hp drawbar horsepower says more than engine horsepower alone. |
| Power-to-weight note | At 22,000 lb and 335 hp, the John Deere 8335RT works out to about 65.7 lb per engine horsepower, making it light for its power, so traction and ballast can become the limiting factor before engine power. |
| Engine note | For engine identification, the John Deere 8335RT is listed with engine model the John Deere PowerTech PSX, 9 L displacement, 6 cylinders, rated at 2,100 rpm. |
| Torque / RPM note | The John Deere 8335RT’s 885 lb-ft torque rating works with its 2,100 rpm rated speed, so load response depends on both numbers. |
