Description
Zoom on the AR Blue Clean MAXX3000
In summary, the AR Blue Clean MAXX3000 is a heavy duty pressure washer, that offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, and also:
- general cleaning of hard surfaces , washing vehicles, and preparing surfaces for painting
- applying detergents or chemicals, and rinsing surfaces afterward
- spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, and removing stubborn stains
Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
Its aluminum axial (wobble plate) pump, which utilizes a 15-amp induction motor, may deliver a pressure of up to 3000 PSI (almost 50 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.3 GPM. While these PSI and GPM values represent the maximum capabilities of the washer under specific conditions, it's important to note that under typical usage, the working pressure is 2500 PSI and the flow rate is 1.1 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 2750 Cleaning Units.
As an electric pressure washer, the MAXX3000's motor is effortlessly activated with a simple ON/OFF switch, ensuring convenient operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The AR Blue Clean MAXX3000's mobility is greatly enhanced by its hand truck design. Guaranteeing longevity, the robust metal frame offers stability and protects internal components, even when subjected to demanding tasks. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the MAXX3000 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
Weighing 55.3 lbs, this unit offers a manageable weight that allows for easy handling by most individuals. The incorporation of the motor and a durable metal frame contribute considerably to its overall weight. Nevertheless, the MAXX3000's two 9" never-flat wheels ensure it remains easy to maneuver.
Main Features
The AR Blue Clean MAXX3000 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent addition feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap addition: Detergent is added to the water at the exit, by attaching the included foam cannon to the end of the wand. You can manually adjust the detergent dilution ratio using the foam cannon's dial.
- Pressure hose: When not in use, the unit allows for tidy storage of the included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose using a set of convenient hooks, ensuring convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: Below, you'll find a table outlining the 3 included nozzles and their recommended surfaces.

Other Features
- Onboard storage: The AR Blue Clean MAXX3000 features a handy storage tray, which allows you to neatly store all its nozzles. The storage solution offered by this model is quite singular, as it allows storing the nozzles directly on the gun, instead of on the unit.
- Safety: Safety of operation is enhanced by a trigger lock mechanism (which prevents accidental operation) and a thermal relief valve (which helps to prevent internal pump damage).
- Accessories: Besides the usual owner's manual (opens in a new tab) and documentation to get you promptly started, the AR Blue Clean MAXX3000 comes with pressure hose, power cord, spray gun, nozzle cleaner, foam cannon (to add cleaning solutions to the water) and wand.
