John Deere 7210 specs: hp, weight, years

John Deere 6.068 TRW-50 six-cylinder diesel. The manufacturer claimed 109 horsepower. The only laboratory test on record is of one version: OECD Test 1748 measured 97.5 hp at the PTO of the 7210 (4 WD); OECD Test 1749 measured 98.3 hp at the PTO of the 7210 (4 WD). Compared at the engine's rated speed, where the brochure figure is quoted, the shaft gave 95.9 hp — 11.7% below the claim.
