Briggs & Stratton expanded its Commercial Series V-Twin engine line to include nine horsepower options, from 16 to 27 hp, in three engine models with displacements of 656 cc, 724 cc or 810 cc.

“The new Commercial Series engine lineup gives customers an expanded range of power solutions for more applications, including commercial walk-behind mowers and concrete surfacing equipment,” said Jim Cross, marketing manager for Briggs & Stratton Commercial Power. “The Commercial Series engines are made to start on command and combat debris-related problems that are prevalent on many job sites so contractors can keep their equipment running stronger all day long without interruption.”

Designed for high-debris applications, the Commercial Series V-Twin engines offer a five-step cyclonic debris management system. Longer filter intervals, tool-less covers, debris inspection ports, drop-in air filters and a spring-loaded snap are designed to make it easier to keep out dirt and debris, which are major contributors to engine failure, according to the company.

The engines are backed by a two-year commercial limited warranty.
