Description
Zoom on the Briggs & Stratton 20507
The Briggs & Stratton 20507, 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

- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces
Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
The Briggs & Stratton 20507's triplex pump, powered by a powerful 420cc (13.5 hp) engine, can provide a pressure of up to 4000 PSI (approximately 67 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 4 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). Thus, the Briggs & Stratton 20507 achieves a cleaning power of 16000 Cleaning Units.
Starting the Briggs & Stratton 2100 Series™ engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
The pressure washer's tank has a maximum capacity of 1.75 gallon for storing gasoline.
Design & Handling
The Briggs & Stratton 20507's wheelbarrow-style design enhances both mobility and stability, enabling seamless navigation and consistent performance, even on rugged terrain. Built to endure, the steel tubing frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The handle adds to the 20507 convenience of transport.
Weighing in at 141 lbs, it's safe to say this unit isn't lightweight, which might pose difficulties for users when it comes to lifting and transporting, particularly over uneven surfaces. The major reasons for its heavy weight are its 420cc Briggs & Stratton 2100 Series™ engine, the triplex pump and steel tubing frame. Despite this, the presence of two 12" never-flat wheels reduces the complexity of moving the 20507, even on rugged surfaces.
Main Features
The Briggs & Stratton 20507 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: Even without a built-in soap tank, the device relies on a siphon hose to provide detergent. Upon connecting a soap nozzle, the pressure washer takes over the task of seamlessly combining the detergent with the water flow.
- Pressure hose: Utilizing a set of convenient hooks, the unit offers a convenient solution for storing the included 50 ft ⌀3/8" high-pressure hose when it's not in use, keeping it neatly organized.
- Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: Find details on the 5 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications in the table below.
