Power
The A-iPower PWF2700SH's aluminum axial cam pump, powered by a 196cc engine, can provide a pressure of up to 2700 PSI (approximately 45 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). The A-iPower PWF2700SH thus has a cleaning power of 6480 Cleaning Units.
The Senci engine of this gas-powered pressure washer gets started by a classic pull-start mechanism.
Design & Handling
The A-iPower PWF2700SH offers superb mobility, with a hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D20.7 x W20.4 x H42.1 in. Its sturdy steel tubing frame provides longevity to the assembly. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.
Weighing 66 lbs, the unit is easy to maneuver by most people. One of the largest contributors to its weight are its 196cc Senci engine and its steel tubing frame. Since the PWF2700SH has a set of two 12" never-flat wheels, it is still easily maneuvered and manipulated.
Main Features
The A-iPower PWF2700SH's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
