BILLY GOAT DELIVERS THE POWER
Founded in the US in 1967, Billy Goat is a designer and manufacturer of turf renovation and clean-up equipment, and forms part of the Briggs & Stratton family of brands.
Known for practical innovation and high-performance specialty turf care solutions, Billy Goat’s product range covers a host of landscaping needs from aerators, sod cutters and brush cutters to blowers, lawn vacuums and debris loaders. This line-up supports professionals in the residential, commercial, rental and municipal sectors.
Traditionally, debris loaders have struggled to cope with peak volumes of wet, heavy and compacted material such as leaves and other organic debris, leading to engine strain, higher fuel use and downtime. On top of that, many engines were awkward to service, so even small breakdowns caused long delays. For contractors and municipalities, that meant rising costs, missed schedules and extra pressure on crews. These challenges drove Billy Goat to identify a clear goal: to find a solution tough enough for heavy-duty professional demands, while remaining efficient and easy to service.
Billy Goat’s engineers reviewed and evaluated several large commercial engines on the market to determine which could best meet the demands of the DL37. Ultimately, the Vanguard® 27,6 kW EFI/ETC V-Twin BIG BLOCK™ engine stood out as the clear choice for meeting the high-demand performance required.
Although Billy Goat is part of the Briggs & Stratton family, the decision to use a Vanguard engine was based on suitability above all else. The EFI/ETC V-Twin offered the torque and durability needed to drive Billy Goat’s largest impeller while maintaining strong vacuum and debris reduction. Its EFI/ETC technology also cuts fuel consumption, solves cold-start issues in winter, and keeps performance stable under fluctuating loads – directly addressing the key challenges of demanding clean-up work.
In addition, Vanguard’s three-year commercial warranty and comprehensive service network provides users greater assurance that the equipment will deliver long-term reliability with minimal downtime. By pairing Billy Goat’s innovation with Vanguard’s trusted engineering, the DL3701VE debris loader delivers a solution that professionals can depend on.
