    I dont know but it would probably pull more than it would stop with the brakes . That is probably more important these days

    Well in theory one horsepower could raise 330 pounds of coal 100 feet in 1 minute. So 20hp could raise 6600 pounds 100 feet in 1 minute.

    We used to pull a 12x7 trailer with cribs full of turf with our 20d when we had no other tractor. Not as fast as a jd but got the turf home none the less. Don't know what weight be in that, maybe 5ton +/-. Great power to weight ratio. It's a pity the newer tractors lost their way in that department.

    On the level, pull between 5 and 6 ton, its not the horsepower available that's important, it's how low a gear you have to get the load moving.. Spread a few 1300 gallon loads of effluent once on a level dry field with a Dexta.

    If 20 is its horse power value surely its brake horse power value is less?
