John Deere S220 Extra Horsepower Notes
| Horsepower note | The John Deere S220 lists engine horsepower and PTO horsepower very close together at about 22 hp. |
|---|---|
| PTO note | With 22 hp at the PTO, the John Deere S220 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 S220 combines 19.5 hp drawbar horsepower with 486 lb operating weight, so traction and ballast can matter as much as power for pulling jobs. |
| Power-to-weight note | The John Deere S220’s weight-to-power figure is about 22.1 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 | Engine details for the John Deere S220 come together as 44.2 cu in displacement. |
