The gross power rating for individual gas engine models is labeled in accordance with SAE (Society of Automotive En- gineers) code J1940 (Small Engine Power & Torque Rating Procedure), and rating performance has been obtained and corrected in accordance with SAE J1995 (Revision 2002-05). Torque values are derived at 3060 RPM; horsepower values are derived at 3600 RPM. Actual gross engine power will be lower and is affected by, among other things, ambient operat- ing conditions and engine-to-engine variability. Given both the wide array of products on which engines are placed and the variety of environmental issues applicable to operating the equipment, the gas engine will not develop the rated gross power when used in a given piece of power equipment (actual “on-site” or net power). This difference is due to a variety of factors including, but not limited to, accessories (air cleaner, exhaust, charging, cooling, carburetor, fuel pump, etc.), application limitations, ambient operating conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude), and engine-to-engine variability. Due to manufacturing and capacity limitations, Briggs & Stratton may substitute an engine of higher rated power for this Series engine.

Safety is a priority in the design of this tractor. The PO14542LT comes equipped with a safety switch that ensures the engine will shut off if the operator leaves the seat while the mower is engaged. Additionally, the tractor includes oversized batteries and an efficient fuel economy, allowing for extended operation between refuels.

Poulan also incorporates advanced technologies into the PO14542LT. The dual-blade cutting system enhances grass chopping capabilities, promoting healthier lawn growth by finely cutting the grass clippings that are returned to the soil.
