Description
Zoom on the A-iPower PWF3400KV
The A-iPower PWF3400KV is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, that provides its users with an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and enables:
- intense cleaning of tough, paintless surfaces
- cleaning of painted or delicate surfaces
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions
- intense cleaning of hard surfaces
The following sections will present you in detail its power characteristics and design, its main features and all the additional features it has to offer.
Power
Its axial cam pump, which utilizes a 200 cc engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 3400 PSI (almost 57 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM. These values correspond to a cleaning power of 8160 Cleaning Units.
This gas-powered pressure washer’s Kohler XTX950 engine is started by a traditional pull-start mechanism.
A fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.35 gallon is used to store gasoline.
Design & Handling
Thanks to its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D21.3 x W20.4 x H40.2 in, the A-iPower PWF3400KV offers great mobility. The robust and sturdy steel tubing frame offers longevity to the assembly. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.
Weighing 62 lbs, the unit is easy to maneuver by most people. Its 200 cc Kohler XTX950 engine and steel tubing frame all add up to a substantial part of that weight. The PWF3400KV can still be easily manipulated and maneuvered, thanks to its two 12" never-flat wheels.
Main Features
Along with the A-iPower PWF3400KV itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.

- Pressure hose: The included 30 ft high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when idle thanks to a set of convenient hooks.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
