BUYING GUIDE
- OHV Design with Cross-Flow Cylinder Head: More efficient,
cleaner-burning engine provides powerful performance.
- 110 Volt Push-Button Electric Starter: Starts up easily
without pulling the starter rope. Plug it in, push a button
and you’re ready to go.
- 20 Watt AC/DC Alternator: For features such as headlights
and heated hand grips, where applicable.
- Low-Tone Muffler with Heat Shield: Significantly reduces
exhaust noise to the appreciation of the user and their
neighbors.
- Induction Discharge Ignition: Delivers longer spark
duration for easy, dependable starting in frigid, subzero
temperatures – as low as 20 degrees below zero!
- Mechanical Governor: Provides precise control of engine
speed for faster response during sudden load changes.
Results in smooth, consistent and trouble-free clearing
power.
