The all-gear walk-behind units were powered by a single-cylinder four-stroke engine, available in a one-wheel model D (1916−195?) and the two wheel model L (1936−1966) and the two wheel model C (1967–1976). Variations of all models included bodywork changes, mechanical changes and color changes throughout their production.
Most 42-inch zero-turn mowers feature 16 to 20 horsepower engines, but the TimeCutter brings the power (and speed) with a large 22 horsepower engine. You can mow fast without having to worry about ...
The most common self-contained power source for lawn mowers is a small 4-stroke (typically one-cylinder) internal combustion engine. Smaller mowers often lack any form of self-propulsion, requiring human power to move over a surface; "walk-behind" mowers are self-propelled, requiring a human only to walk behind and guide them.
Tecumseh engines were used on 95% of Ariens machines from 1960 to 2009. A small percentage used Briggs & Stratton engines and others. In December 2008, Tecumseh began winding down production, and the 2009 model year was the last to receive Tecumseh engines. In 2010 Briggs & Stratton became the main supplier of engines for Ariens machines.
The Twin Cylinder Engine – This engine was introduced in 1977 as a means of competing with Briggs & Stratton's rivals, particularly Japanese firms like Honda who were cutting into traditional Briggs & Stratton markets by producing lawn mower engines (and later, complete lawn mowers). These first models were rated 16 hp (11.9 kW) and displaced ...
Scott Bonnar (c. April 1893 [1] – 1961) was a South Australian engineer, [not verified in body] founder of a company which manufactured a range of lawn mowers and other implements, but perhaps best known [according to whom?] for their "Model 45" reel, or cylinder, mower.
The new company manufactured power lawn mowers, among other products, although the Bradley, IL plant continued to manufacturer lawnmowers In 1964 another merger took place and the Newark Ohio Company was merged into the Geo. D. Roper Corporation with the plant in Newark, Ohio continuing to manufacture outdoor power equipment including riding ...
Scott designed and patented a vertical twin two-stroke engine in 1904, [4] and patented the familiar Scott motorcycle frame in 1908 [5] designed to accept an engine of the type in the former patent and to achieve a low centre of gravity. The resulting motorcycle was launched in 1908 featuring a 450 cc two-stroke twin-cylinder water-cooled engine.
