MILWAUKEE, Jan. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Briggs &
Stratton is excited to announce it is continuing its relationship
with Multiquip to exclusively power its new MQ Whiteman LD6 ride-on
trowel. Launching at World of Concrete 2020, the hydrostatic
ride-on trowel is spec'd with the Vanguard 23.0 Gross HP* Small
Block V-Twin horizontal shaft engine featuring a brand new internal
spline crank shaft.
"We're excited to offer Multiquip customers another opportunity
to enjoy Vanguard quality, reliability and durability by powering
its new ride-on trowel," said Mike
Braun, Briggs & Stratton product manager, commercial
power. The new internal spline crankshaft offers additional
benefits by allowing customers using hydraulic pumps to connect
directly to the engine without the use of a coupling. "We developed
the new internal spline crank shaft to increase ease of use and
enhance the outstanding productivity Vanguard is known for," said
Braun.
The Vanguard 23.0 Gross HP* with the new internal spline
crankshaft will power Multiquip's new Whiteman LD6 — the only fully
hydrostatic 6-foot ride-on trowel on the market
today. "Incorporating a proportional servo-controlled pump and
high torque drive motors, the LD6 can achieve performance levels
unmatched in the industry by any 6-foot ride-on trowel," said
Kelly Panzeri, product manager,
Multiquip. Proportional hydraulic steering enhances
maneuverability, while the all new walk-around frame design
simplifies maintenance and offers easy access to all serviceable
components.
"We've had great results with Vanguard power solutions on our
equipment, and it was an easy choice for Multiquip to continue the
relationship by powering our new LD6 ride-on trowel with the
Vanguard 23.0 Gross HP*," said Panzeri. Vanguard also powers the
Multiquip HHNG5 ride-on trowel with a Vanguard BIG Block™ 35.0
Gross HP* and the WBH-16EAWDF Power Buggy with a Vanguard Small
Block 18.0 Gross HP*.
See the new Vanguard powered Multiquip Whiteman LD6 at World of
Concrete in Multiquip booth C4537. For more information on Vanguard
