Has anyone experience of the new Jensen A540T with Kubota engine set up to meet the emissions regs. As far as I know the spec is the usual 37hp engine now set at 25hp with 18.5KW output. Just wanted to know if anyone has noticed any major performance issues?

Cheers.

Sounds well underpowerd @ 25hp

Yeah I know that's my worry so was hoping someone had experience of one?

I tried a 6" with a 25hp kubota and it wasn't anything like the old 35hp. That was in a 6", cant imagine what it's like in an 8"! 

Still using the A530T with 35hp and has been great machine for us but want to upgrade to a A540T and can only get the 25hp from our main dealer. So not sure at the moment.

Tr8 forst not sure about timberwolf but was trying to keep it Jensen because we have had good experience with our Jensen's. Was hoping someone out there was running the new A540T and could give us some feed back.

the tr8 forst (Diesel) is 55hp I believe, Ive used the petrol version (57HP) and love it! I know someone on here had pictures of there new Diesel one a bit back. I looked at the TW equivalent and its the TW280, unfortunately they don't do a Diesel version!

I have got a Jensen A540 turntable and we all love it. I would not like the idea of it only having 25hp. Sure the feed rollers, which are so good, would still do their job, but you would either have to turn the roller speed down or have the no stress kicking in a lot more on decent brash.
