Lavina L25GS7 & L25GKS7 Propane Concrete Floor Grinder

A Mid-Size Propane Grinder — Your Choice of Engine

The Lavina® L25 is the mid-size propane grinder in the Series 7 lineup — a 26.5-inch planetary machine built for high productivity on grinding and polishing jobs across large commercial floors. With the cord-free mobility of propane and the muscle to power through aggressive surface prep, it covers more ground than a 20″ machine while staying more maneuverable than a full 30″. For contractors who want mid-size coverage and strong production, the L25 is the sweet spot of the propane lineup.

Best of all, you choose the engine:

  • L25GS7 — Kawasaki FX600V, 19 HP — proven, reliable, and economical
  • L25GKS7 — Kohler PCV740, 24 HP — extra torque and power for demanding production work

Both are the same machine in every other respect — the same 26.5″ work path, the same S7 frame, and the same sealed grinding head. The only difference is the engine, so you can match the power plant to your work and your budget.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between the L25GS7 and the L25GKS7? They’re the same machine with different engines. The L25GS7 has a 19 HP Kawasaki FX600V (proven and economical); the L25GKS7 has a 24 HP Kohler PCV740 (more torque and power for demanding jobs). The 26.5″ work path, frame, grinding head, and all other specs are identical — so it comes down to how much power you want and your budget.

Which engine should I choose? For most jobs, the Kawasaki (L25GS7) delivers reliable, economical performance. If you run heavy production or want extra torque for aggressive grinding, step up to the Kohler (L25GKS7). Not sure? Call us and we’ll help you decide based on your typical work.

What is the Lavina L25 best for? Mid-to-large commercial floor prep and polishing — grinding, coating removal, and polishing on open floors where you want cord-free propane power and strong production in a maneuverable 26.5″ machine.

Why propane instead of electric? Propane gives you full mobility with no cords and no need for a power supply on site — ideal for large open areas and locations without adequate electrical service.

How does it compare to the L20GS7 and L30GS7? The L20GS7 is the compact 20″ propane machine; the L30GS7 is the full-size 30″ for maximum production. The L25 sits in between at 26.5″ — more coverage and power than the 20″, more maneuverable than the 30″.

Does it work wet or dry? Yes — it has a water system for wet grinding and polishing and can run dry with proper dust collection.

What tooling does it use? Lavina-compatible planetary tooling. See our Lavina grinder accessories and planetary tooling.
