Engine Drive


Engine vs. Turbine


These Water-Reels are powered by a 4 HP gasoline engine driving the machine through a
set of two-step pulley reductions and a two-speed gearbox that provides a wide speed
range. Most engine powered Water-Reels have a travel speed range from 30 ft/hr to 400
ft/hr. They are speed compensated by the engine throttle. This generation of engine
driven machines is especially economical to maintain and they operate on a very small
amount of fuel.

The engine used on these machines is the Honda GX-120.

There is no information in this manual pertaining to the particular engine in use. Operating
and service information on the engine is provided by the engine manufacturer and is
packed separately with the Water-Reel engine drive machine.
