Kohler Engines says that it is fortifying its leadership position in alternative fuels with the introduction of new Tri-Fuel engines. Four of the company’s Command PRO horizontal shaft engines–the CH260, CH270, CH395, and CH440–now offer the ability to run on three different fuels: gasoline, propane, and natural gas. This advancement allows end users to simply turn a dial to switch between the three options based on fuel availability or fuel preference for the task at hand.
“Our new Tri-Fuel engines provide ultimate flexibility for engine dealers as well as end users,” said Scott Lee, product manager for Kohler Engines. “Now, dealers have the ability to stock a single engine model and–as long as they have the necessary fuel kits–they’ll be able to set the engine to accept gasoline, LP, or natural gas. This level of engine flexibility can significantly cut a dealer’s inventory costs while also giving their customers the ability to easily adjust the fuel source for optimum engine performance.”
The four new Kohler Command PRO Tri-Fuel engines are available in power ratings from 6- to 14-hp and will be utilized in a wide variety of utility equipment, including blowers, concrete saws, pumps, welders, wood chippers and more.
