Kawasaki FX691V-HS06-S 22HP V-Twin Vertical Shaft Engine Electric Start

The forced-air-cooled V-twin Kawasaki FX691V engine features an internally vented carburetor with fuel shut-off solenoid, heavy-duty canister air filter, a metal engine cover with integrated clean-out ports, and more, for the kind of performance you can count on day in and day out. Take on the toughest jobs with the kind of confidence only meticulously crafted Kawasaki quality can give you.

Features:

 

• Engine performance, by the numbers: From power and torque numbers to engine features and more, the following is here to help communicate engine performance details and capabilities. Be sure to consider these specs to help ensure the engine you’re choosing is a match to your mowing needs.

• Overhead v-valve: A high-performance overhead valve layout that maximizes volumetric efficiency. This design ensures the 22HP engine breathes easier, providing cleaner combustion, better fuel economy, and lower operating temperatures.

• 90° V-twin: The gold standard for primary balance. By aligning cylinders at a 90-degree angle, the pistons naturally counterbalance each other, virtually eliminating the harsh vibrations that cause operator fatigue and chassis wear.

• Pressurized lubrication system: An automotive-grade oiling system featuring a high-volume pump. It forces a constant stream of oil to critical bearings, ensuring the engine remains protected even when operating at extreme angles on steep hills.

• Electronic spark ignition: A solid-state, maintenance-free ignition system that delivers a high-energy spark. This ensures reliable "turn-key" starting and consistent 726cc power delivery across the entire RPM range.

• Automatic compression release: A built-in mechanical relief system that vents cylinder pressure during the initial crank. This allows the 22HP engine to spin up to ignition speed with ease, preserving the life of your battery and starter.

• Rotating metal grass chopper screen: A heavy-duty, debris-shredding intake screen. This rotating metal guard pulverizes grass and leaves before they can reach the cooling fins, preventing clogs and maintaining optimal airflow in messy field conditions.

• Multi-Stage canister air filter: A professional-grade filtration system with an integrated cyclonic pre-cleaner. It egests heavy dust particles before they hit the main element, ensuring the engine receives clean air in the most punishing commercial environments.

• Cast-iron cylinder liners: Industrial-strength iron sleeves that provide superior wear resistance. These liners protect the engine core, maintaining perfect compression and ensuring the FX691V survives thousands of hours of rigorous use.

• Metal engine cover with integrated clean out ports: A rugged, impact-resistant engine cover designed for the pro. The integrated clean-out ports allow you to blow out grass and dirt from the cooling fins in seconds, without having to disassemble the engine.

• Heavy duty shift-type starter: An automotive-style, heavy-duty starter motor. This design ensures positive gear engagement every time, providing the high-torque reliability needed for the frequent start-stop cycles of commercial crews.
