The engine power is 18 hp and works with gasoline. The fuel tank feeds the engine is very large, capable of containing up to 18. 9 liters (5 American gallons) of gasoline, which means that it will not have to constantly fill it even for periods of intense operation. The engine is lubricated by a pressure lubrication system. Unfortunately, it does not start with a key, but with a rope recoil mechanism.
