Subaru Lawn Mower Ea175v Rear Axle

Subaru's EA175V 4.5 horsepower small chain-driven OHC, air-cooled, vertical shaft engine is the ideal power source for walk-behind lawn mowers.

The Subaru-Robin EA175V is a 0.2 L (174 cc, 10.62 cu·in) natural aspirated single-cylinder four-stroke air-cooled internal combustion small gasoline engine with a vertical shaft, manufactured by the Industrial Products division of Subaru Corporation for general-purpose applications.

The EA175V engine was produced until 2017 under the brand Subaru Industrial Power Products, which was previously referred to as Robin, Subaru-Robin and Wisconsin Robin. This engine used for lawn mowers and garden applications including pressure washers, walk behind string trimmers, aerators and lawn vacs.

Cylinder Block and Head

Cylinder bore and piston stroke are 68.0 mm (2.68 in) and 48.0 mm (1.89 in), respectively. Compression ratio rating is 9.0:1. The Subaru EA175V used a cast-iron cylinder liner with heavy-duty piston rings, forged high-carbon steel crankshaft with ball bearing supporting system and hardened steel rocker arms with precision tappet adjusters. The piston is fitted with two compression rings and a single oil ring.

Hemispherical Combustion Chamber
Enables a high compression ratio, providing more power than competitive engines while reducing fuel consumption.

Intake and Exhaust Valves
Uniquely positioned to optimize the intake and exhaust ports, and lower the resistance of the air/fuel flow for added power and fuel efficiency, as well as lower emissions.

Subaru Lawn Mower Ea175v


Chain-Driven Overhead Cams(Dual Cams)
Allow the engine to breathe better and run quieter. OHC technology, in combination with the hemispherical combustion chamber, elevates starting ease and eliminates kickback.

Piston and Cast-Iron Cylinder
Quality components like heavy-duty piston rings and a cast-iron cylinder liner enhance durability.
Timing Chain
Hardened steel timing chain reduces maintenance and noise levels. EA engines operate a full 2dBA quieter in exhaust tone than competitors.
Rocker Arms(2)
Constructed from hardened steel, rocker arms increase durability and reduce maintenance requirements.
