Power
Powered by a 196cc engine, its aluminum axial pump can deliver a pressure of 2800 PSI (around 47 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). With these values combined, the A-iPower PWF2701SH boasts a cleaning power of 6720 Cleaning Units.
To initiate the Kohler RH265 engine of this gas-powered pressure washer, a traditional pull-start mechanism is employed.
The pressure washer's tank has a maximum capacity of 0.55 gallon for storing gasoline.
Design & Handling
With its hand truck design, the A-iPower PWF2701SH provides great mobility. The durable steel tubing frame of the assembly ensures its longevity, providing stability and shielding internal components from damage, even in tough conditions. The rubber-padded fixed handle adds to the PWF2701SH convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With a weight of 66 lbs, this unit is designed for ease of maneuverability, catering to a wide range of users. A significant portion of this weight is attributed to the inclusion of the 196cc Kohler RH265 engine and a sturdy steel tubing frame. Still, the PWF2701SH's two 12" never-flat wheels ensure easy handling and maneuverability.
Main Features
Along with the A-iPower PWF2701SH itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.
- Soap injection: Detergent is stored in a dedicated tank. The detergent is automatically mixed with the water flow by the pressure washer when a soap nozzle is connected.
