www.outdoorpowerequipment.com OUTDOOR POWER EQUIPMENT JANUARY 2016 29 PRODUCT ROUNDUP EQUIPMENT FOCUS PERKINS 404F-E22TA Perkins 404F-E22TA engine is an optimal solution for mowers, landscape tractors, dumpers, stumpers, de-watering and watering pumps, skid steers, wheel loaders, hydraulic excavators, rollers, generators, welders, saws and pavers; indeed, the whole spectrum of compact engine-driven rental equipment. A 2000 bar common rail direct injection system and full authority electronics are both firsts for an engine of this size. The exceptionally clean burn achieved by the ultra-fine high-pressure injector spray produces less carbon and lowers emissions, a major factor in meeting U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final/EU Stage IIIB emission standards. The clean burn eliminates the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF), allowing a small, rear- mounted diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) to serve as both an emission control device and often a muffler as well. The engine also has a similar footprint size to previous models, as well as common connection and mounting points across the 2.2-liter platform, meaning original equip- ment manufacturers (OEMs) can reduce their manufacturing costs for applications operating in higher- and lesser-regulated territories. While this model retains a number of features that make the 400 Series the first choice for many OEMs globally, performance from the 2.2-liter 404F- E22TA engine has been boosted to 67 hp. and 208 Nm of torque at 1,800 rpm and rated speed to 2,800 rpm. Improvements can also be seen in cold-start capability with the engine performing at temperatures as low as -32 degrees Celsius. Perkins Engines ROTARY CORPORATION OFFERS VARIETY OF FUEL STABILIZERS FOR 2016 Several types of small-engine fuel stabilizers are featured in Rotary's 2016 master parts catalog, including PRI-G, Ethanol Shield, STA-BIL, and a new line of VP Fuels that is available in 32-ounce bottles. Rotary's fuel stabilizers are ideal for lawn mowers, chain saws, snow blow- ers, generators, and other types of 2- or 4-cycle engines. The additives help prevent gum, varnish and corrosion while improving engine performance and fuel economy. Rotary's 2016 catalog is free for servicing dealers and distribu- tors, and it is now available to download in PDF format at rotarycorp.com. Rotary Corp. STAR TRON ENZYME FUEL TREATMENT Fuel quality is the most im- portant factor in making sure that engines run smoothly and produce maximum power, but it is the one thing we can't control. Using top- tier fuel instead of discount gas stations is a good start, but using Star Tron Enzyme Fuel Treatment is an ideal way to improve the performance of all gas-powered engines. Star Tron's enzymes allow more oxygen to attach to hydrocarbon fuel molecules, resulting in improved combustibility. This translates into maximum power, crisper throttle response and improved fuel economy. A more complete burn of the fuel charge also helps prevent the formation of performance-robbing carbon deposits to keep engines running clean. Star Tron will maintain fuel chemistry for up to 2 years, making it ideal for outdoor power equipment that will be placed in seasonal storage. Used year-round, Star Tron Enzyme Fuel Treatment keeps all engines start- ing easily and running smoothly. Star brite, Inc. STENS OFFERS LUCAS OIL, STAR TRON PRODUCTS Stens offers a wide selection of Lucas Oil and Star Tron products. The company's line of more than 100 Lucas Oil products includes oil additives, fuel injector cleaner, heavy-duty oil stabilizer, grease, gear & transmission fluid, hydraulic oil, heavy-duty grease, chain lubricant, air tool lubricant and appearance products. Stens also carries a variety of synthetic and semi- synthetic 2-cycle and high-performance motor oils. With today's new fuels demanding new addi- tive technology, Stens meets that demand with its line of Star Tron products. Star Tron enzyme fuel additive helps treat the most common problems caused by ethanol fuel blends — problems such as debris and excessive water levels in the fuel, quick fuel breakdown, loss of power, and de- creased fuel economy. With the help of Star Tron fuel additives, users will experience increased fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, eliminated carbon build-up, and lowered fuel system main- tenance. Star Tron products rejuvenate old fuel and stabilize it for up to 2 years. Engines will start easier and run smoother. Star Tron is safe for use in all 2- and 4-cycle engines under all conditions. It is an all-purpose, alcohol-free additive that is safe to use year-round. Stens' offering of Star Tron products includes 8-, 16- and 32-ounce bottles of Gasoline Additive and 8-ounce bottles of Diesel Additive. Stens also offers Star Tron Gasoline Additive and Diesel Additive in 1-gallon containers. Stens STIHL MOTOMIX Stihl MotoMix is a patented premixed fuel that is specially blended for ultimate perfor- mance. Like a sports drink for an engine, this 50:1 mixture is a combination of premium non-ethanol, high-octane motor fuel and Stihl HP Ultra oil. Clean and convenient, MotoMix eliminates the hassle of users mixing their own 2-stroke engine fuel while providing su- perior performance and lubrication. Plus, Stihl stands behind this formulation by doubling the limited warranty when consumers include MotoMix with their power tool purchase. Stihl MotoMix contains no ethanol, allowing it to maintain stability for up to 2 years after the seal is broken, so it stays fresh in equipment during long storage periods. MotoMix is also made of non-aromatic fuel and fully synthetic, highly biodegradable engine oil. MotoMix is the official fuel of the Stihl Timbersports Series. Stihl Inc.
