Power
The Champion 100580
Powered by the brand new Honda GCV200 (opens in a new tab) engine, which is specially built for pressure washers, its axial cam pump can deliver a pressure of 3200 PSI (around 53 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.5 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). With these values combined, the Champion 100580 boasts a cleaning power of 8000 Cleaning Units.
Initiating the 201cc engine of this gas pressure washer is achieved through a classic pull-start process.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.24 gallon.
Design & Handling
The hand truck design of the Champion 100580 ensures effortless movement and transportation. The durable steel frame of the assembly ensures its longevity, providing stability and shielding internal components from damage, even in tough conditions. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the 100580 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
Weighing 51.6 lbs, this unit offers a manageable weight that allows for easy handling by most individuals. A significant portion of this weight is attributed to the inclusion of the 201cc Honda GCV200 engine and a sturdy steel frame. Nevertheless, the 100580's two 12" never-flat wheels ensure it remains easy to maneuver.
Main Features
The Champion 100580's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: While the device doesn't feature a soap tank, detergent supply is ensured by a siphon hose. With its automatic soap dilution mechanism, the Champion 100580 simplifies the process of blending detergent to the prescribed ratio of 12:1. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
- Pressure hose: Utilizing a set of easy-to-use straps, the unit offers a convenient solution for storing the included 25 ft ⌀9/32" high-pressure hose when it's not in use, keeping it neatly organized.
- Spray gun and wand: Both the classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand may be conveniently stored in a side hook.
- Nozzles: Refer to the table below for details on the 4 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications.
