Description
Zoom on the A-iPower PWF4200SH
The A-iPower PWF4200SH, a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, gives its user an all-around versatile cleaning experience, topped off by the following features:
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching high areas, and removing stubborn stains
- overall cleaning of hard surfaces, washing vehicles, and prepping surfaces for painting
- gentle cleaning of delicate surfaces, and low pressure cleaning of larger areas
- using cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces to remove residue
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
The A-iPower PWF4200SH
Its brass triplex pump, which utilizes a powerful 420cc (13 hp) engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 4200 PSI (almost 70 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 4 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 16800 Cleaning Units.
For this gas-powered pressure washer, the Senci SC420 engine is started using a time-tested pull-start mechanism.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 1.7 gallon.
Design & Handling
Designed with a wheelbarrow configuration, the A-iPower PWF4200SH ensures improved mobility and stability, allowing for effortless movement and reliable operation on challenging surfaces. Guaranteeing longevity, the robust steel frame offers stability and protects internal components, even when subjected to demanding tasks. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.
Tipping the scales at 132 lbs, this unit's weight presents a notable challenge for users, especially when it comes to lifting and moving it, particularly over uneven ground. Its 420cc Senci SC420 engine, the triplex pump and steel frame add up to a large chunk of the device's weight. Despite this, the presence of two 12" never-flat wheels reduces the complexity of moving the PWF4200SH, even on rugged surfaces.
Main Features
Along with the A-iPower PWF4200SH 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.
- Soap injection: Detergent is fed in through a siphon hose, since the device lacks a soap tank. The detergent is automatically mixed with the water flow by the pressure washer when a soap nozzle is connected.
- Pressure hose: When not in use, the unit allows for tidy storage of the included 50 ft high-pressure hose using a set of convenient hooks, ensuring convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
- Nozzles: Refer to the table below for details on the 5 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications.
