168FE-1 170FE 172FE Model 6.5hp To 8hp OHV Electric Start Gasoline Engine

Product Overview

Not every job should begin with a workout. The electric start gasoline engine series was conceived for operators who prioritize effortless ignition—the turn of a key replaces the pull of a cord, transforming the startup sequence from a physical chore into a simple twist.

Why Electric Start Matters

Recoil starting works—until it doesn't. Cold mornings, stiff engines after storage, operator fatigue after multiple restarts, or simply the preference for convenience: electric start addresses all of these scenarios. For equipment that starts and stops frequently throughout the day, or for users with limited pulling strength, the value is immediate and tangible.

What Sets This Series Apart from the Recoil-Only Version

While sharing the same proven OHV platform, this variant integrates several components that the manual-start version omits:

• Starter motor with dedicated engagement gear

• Key-switch panel with ON/OFF positions and circuit breaker

• Battery charging coil to maintain starting battery during operation

• Wiring harness with color-coded connections

• Push-button engine stop for emergency shutdown

These additions create a self-contained starting system that requires only a 12V battery connection to operate.

Core Platform: Shared OHV Heritage

Underneath the electric start hardware, the engine platform remains identical to its hand-start counterpart. Same overhead valve architecture, same transistorized ignition, same forced splash lubrication. The difference lies entirely in the user experience at startup.
