Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
The Craftsman CMEPW2400
Powered by a 13-amp induction motor, its axial cam pump can deliver a pressure of 2400 PSI (around 40 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.1 GPM (CETA-certified values). With these values combined, the Craftsman CMEPW2400 boasts a cleaning power of 2640 Cleaning Units.
Being an electric unit, the CMEPW2400 easily starts up with the press of an ON/OFF switch, providing seamless operation. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
With its hand truck design, the Craftsman CMEPW2400 provides great mobility. The sturdy steel tubing frame ensures the longevity of the assembly, offering stability and protection for internal components, even during rigorous use. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the CMEPW2400 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
With a weight of 44.8 lbs, the unit is comfortably maneuverable for most users, allowing for efficient handling during cleaning tasks. Its motor and steel tubing frame account for a good chunk of that weight. Despite this, the CMEPW2400's two 10" wheels ensure effortless maneuverability.
Main Features
The Craftsman CMEPW2400
Along with the Craftsman CMEPW2400 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.
