B riggs & Stratton’s Vanguard 200 is a single cylinder, horizontal shaft commercial engine developed around key areas of performance critical to improving overall productivity including starting, maintenance intervals, service and support and total cost of ownership, Laura Clarke, Marketing Communications Manager, Briggs & Stratton Australia, said. “Vanguard products are engineered to deliver the best value and performance, as well as setting the global standard for industrial grade petrol engines, and include an advanced version of TransportGuard; Vanguard’s exclusive single ignition and fuel shutoff designed to prevent oil dilution during transport. Fast, reliable and maintenance-free starting, along with a cast-iron sleeve aids for durability and superior performance,” Laura said. “Briggs & Stratton’s Q6500 QuietPower Series Inverter Generator is designed to deliver quiet confidence, while providing consistent power for essential appliances and sensitive electronics such as POS systems. With an all-steel frame in a protective shell, increased lifespan and reduced repair costs, the Q6500 features a highly-efficient integrated engine/alternator to provide up to 14 hours of run time plus 6,500 starting watts of backup power. It also features Bluetooth functionality through the InfoHub app which monitors total power being used, run time (hours until empty), total unit hours and maintenance reminders. The Shindaiwa Brushcutter T262XS has a 25.4cm 3 engine displacement with an output of 1.04 kW. With a 5% larger engine than its previous model, the 0.6L fuel tank capacity has a fuel consumption of 0.61 L/h at maximum engine power.
