John Deere 9300T specs: hp, weight, years

John Deere 6.125 HRW-06 six-cylinder diesel. The manufacturer claimed 355 horsepower. The only laboratory test on record is of one version: OECD Test 1966 measured 345.4 hp at the PTO of the 9300T (Rubber tracklaying tractor). Compared at the engine's rated speed, where the brochure figure is quoted, the shaft gave 302.8 hp — 14.8% below the claim.
