* The power rating of the engine indicated in this document is the net power output tested on a production engine (net power) and at 2,500 rpm (Max net torque). Mass production engines may vary from this value. Actual power output for the engine installed in the final machine will vary depending on numerous factors, including the operating speed of the engine in application, environmental conditions, maintenance, and other variables.
