alt=\"Convenient access to engine\">\n    <span class=\"caption\">Convenient access to engine<\/span>\n   <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n  <p>The Z997R is powered by a 3-cylinder, liquid-cooled diesel engine with a gross 27.5 kW (37.4 hp) that meets U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Final Tier 4 emission standards. The engine achieves Final Tier 4 compliance by using a diesel oxidation catalyst with diesel particulate filter (DOC\/DPF) system.<br><br>The&nbsp;three-cylinder diesel engine features&nbsp;low noise levels,&nbsp;superior fuel economy, and a high torque reserve that provides plenty of power and performance.<br><br>Key features of the engine include:<\/p>\n  <ul>\n   <li>Economical, cast-in block cylinder design&nbsp;gives good cooling and long life.<\/li>\n   <li>Liquid-cooled&nbsp;design provides&nbsp;more consistent operating temperatures than air-cooled.<\/li>\n   <li>Direct fuel injection is provided.&nbsp;\n    <ul>\n     <li>Injects fuel directly on top of pistons for more efficient combustion<\/li>\n     <li>Develops more horsepower per gallon of fuel<\/li>\n     <li>Improves starting<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Aluminum alloy pistons with built-in steel struts are lightweight to reduce connection rod bearing loads and provide good heat-transfer characteristics.\n    <ul>\n     <li>Design permits tighter tolerances and neutralizes expansion of the piston, thereby reducing blow-by fuel and noise from the piston slap<\/li>\n     <li>Higher top rings on the piston and a thinner head gasket greatly reduce the volume of unburned waste and increase combustion efficiency<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Timing gears and injector drive gears utilize helical profile gears to help lower engine noise.\n    <ul>\n     <li>Gear teeth have a newly designed &#8221;roll-off&#8221; profile, giving almost no clash, no noise, and no backlash<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Fuel filter with replaceable element is provided.<\/li>\n   <li>Full-pressure intake manifold provides quick starts in temperatures down to -18\u00b0C (0\u00b0F).<\/li>\n   <li>Auto-bleed fuel system gives extra convenience.&nbsp;\n    <ul>\n     <li>No need to prime the system if the unit runs out of fuel; the system will self-prime the injection pump, lines and injectors, providing fast fuel recovery<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Key start and shutoff eliminate fuel shut-off knob; electric solenoid shuts fuel supply off immediately when key is turned off.<\/li>\n   <li>See-through coolant recovery tank permits operator to check coolant level without removing radiator cap.<\/li>\n   <li>Sealed radiator compartment keeps trash and debris on outside of hood.<\/li>\n   <li>Dual-element, dry-type air cleaner with safety element and air service indicator is provided.&nbsp;\n    <ul>\n     <li>Dual-element design for added engine protection<\/li>\n     <li>Easy to service<\/li>\n     <li>Completely sealed for effective cleaning&nbsp;and&nbsp;90 to 95 percent of dirt ejected before it reaches the paper element<\/li>\n     <li>Secondary safety element&nbsp;for additional filtering<\/li>\n     <li>Air-restriction indicator to let operator know when the filter needs servicing<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Full-pressure lubrication with full-flow filter&nbsp;lengthens engine life.&nbsp;\n    <ul>\n     <li>Engine wear reduced by ensuring proper lubrication, even when operating on hillsides or uneven terrain<\/li>\n     <li>Oil filter helps keep oil clean for increased engine life<\/li>\n    <\/ul><\/li>\n   <li>Automotive-type alternator (75 amp) provides plenty of charge to the battery.<\/li>\n   <li>Rear-mounted, covered radiator and fan keeps noise away from the operator and is easy to service.<\/li>\n   <li>Isolated engine mounting reduces engine vibration at operator&#8217;s station for more comfortable operation.<\/li>\n
