 PROPANE Lawn Mower Equipment The propane industry has set its sights on that symbol of American middle-class achievement: the lawn mower.
|
By promoting the benefits of propane lawn mowers - which have lower emissions, are cheaper to run and last longer - the industry is betting it can grow to a 3% share of all commercial mowers sold in the U.S. by 2016 from 1% now. That would goose propane consumption by the machines to 23.8 million gallons by 2016 from about 7.9 million gallons this year.
Two of the most popular products for propane powered lawn mowers are the NEW RegO Products: 7142LF and 7142LM Left Hand Thread ACME Connectors specifically for Vapor Withdrawal Industrial Cylinders Designed for PROPANE FUELED LAWNMOWERS.
Application:
These brass connectors are especially designed to join the carburetor vapor fuel line to the service valve on industrial cylinders especially designed for and used on propane fueled lawn mowers. Sturdy long lasting ACME left hand threads provides for quick hand tight assembly that provides for quick and simple cylinder replacement.
Features: 
- The 7142LM couples directly to the service valve. An integral O-ring is designed to seal before the internal check opens, aiding in product loss prevention. A gasket at the ACME thread when the connectors are tightened together.
- The 7142LF accepts the vapor
fuel line adapter and couples directly with the 7142LM. The O-ring seal in the 7142LM is designed to seal before the internal check opens to allow product to pass through the connection. The knurled coupling nut proves for easy make up even against LP-Gas vapor pressure. - Lines across wrench flats indicate left had thread on the male AMCE connection. And, a solid line around coupling nut indicates left hand thread on the female ACME connection.
AND, to power those mowers the industry has developed 33.5 pound horizontal cylinders to work specifically on commercial lawn mowers providing a vapor supply connection using this left-handed ACME connection.

Both Manchester and Worthington has developed products for Propane Powered Lawn Mowers:
Manchester Part Number: CYL-9367, 33.5# aluminum cylinder, also available in 20# steel, (5456TC.3) and 43.5# aluminum (9368)
Worthington Part Number: CYL308924, 33.5# aluminum cylinder
And, your customers will need a way to store and protect their mower cylinders; GEC offers a full line of quality cylinder storage cages, protective bollards, and if you have your own bollards and want a professional looking polyethylene coordinated color cover, we have those also.

Our cylinder cages are available in 2 exceptional materials & coatings:
- Powder Coated Galvanized &

Other features and benefits include the following:
- Tamper resistant welded frame

 Joke of the Month
* Computers can never replace humans. They may become capable of artificial intelligence, but they will never master real stupidity.
* A cowboy named Bud was overseeing his herd in a remote mountainous pasture in California when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced toward him out of a cloud of dust. The driver, a young man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, RayBan sunglasses and YSL tie, leaned out the window and asked the cowboy, "If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, Will you give me a calf?" Bud looks at the man, obviously a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, "Sure, Why not?" The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell notebook computer, connects it to his Cingular RAZR V3 cell phone, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite to get an exact fix on his location which he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo. The young man then opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop and exports it to an image processing facility in Hamburg , Germany. Within seconds, he receives an email on his Palm Pilot that the image has been processed and the data stored. He then accesses an MS-SQL database through an ODBC connected Excel spreadsheet with email on his Blackberry and, after a few minutes, receives a response. Finally, he prints out a full-color, 150-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet printer, turns to the cowboy and says, "You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves." "That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of my calves," says Bud. He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on with amusement as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car. Then Bud says to the young man, "Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my calf?" The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, "Okay, why not?" "You're a Congressman for the U.S. Government", says Bud. "Wow! That's correct," says the yuppie, "but how did you guess that?" "No guessing required." answered the cowboy. "You showed up here even though nobody called you. You want to get paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked. You used millions of dollars worth of equipment trying to show me how much smarter than me you are, and you don't know a thing about how working people make a living, or about cows for that matter. This is a herd of sheep. Now give me back my dog.
