Compared to Gasoline mixers of similar size, Diesel-Powered machines are more powerful and require a lesser volume of fuel. Diesel Motors are more solid built (To accommodate much higher compression forces). As for Maintenance Intervals, most Diesel Equipment have longer Intervals between scheduled maintenance. They also have fewer components that can fail unexpectedly. For this reason, they are preferred for Continuous Duty Operations and Mission-Critical Jobs.
As for Diesel Fuel, it is less volatile than Gasoline, therefore it is easier to handle and Safer. This is an important consideration for Extreme Heat, Winter Storage, Warehousing, and Transporting. Furthermore - Diesel has a longer shelf life and doesn't contain the harmful effects of Ethanol.
