At the heart of the PDGT26H48C is a 26-horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine, known for its reliability and fuel efficiency. This engine provides ample power for tackling tough mowing tasks, and the automatic transmission ensures smooth acceleration and easy handling. The responsive controls contribute to an enjoyable mowing experience, allowing users to maneuver around obstacles with ease.
