Description
Zoom on the DeWalt DXPW60606
In a nutshell, the DeWalt DXPW60606 is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:
- precise spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and effectively removing stubborn stains
- broad cleaning of hard surfaces, vehicle washing, and surface preparation for painting
- mild cleaning for delicate surfaces, and low-pressure cleaning for broader areas
- applying detergents or chemicals, and rinsing surfaces afterward
The following sections will present you in detail its power characteristics and design, its main features and all the additional features it has to offer.
Power
The DeWalt DXPW60606
Powered by a powerful 389cc (11.7 hp) engine, its triplex pump can deliver a pressure of 4200 PSI (around 70 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 4 GPM (CETA-certified values). With these values combined, the DeWalt DXPW60606 boasts a cleaning power of 16800 Cleaning Units.
The Honda GX390 engine of this gas-powered pressure washer is initiated by a classic pull-start mechanism.
Fuel for the pressure washer is housed in a tank capable of holding up to 1.6 gallon of gasoline.
Design & Handling
Characterized by its wheelbarrow layout, the DeWalt DXPW60606 provides improved mobility and stability, facilitating easy movement and steadfast operation for effective cleaning results. Built to endure, the welded steel frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The handle adds to the DXPW60606 convenience of transport.
Tipping the scales at 145 lbs, this unit's weight presents a notable challenge for users, especially when it comes to lifting and moving it, particularly over uneven ground. The major reasons for its heavy weight are its 389cc Honda GX390 engine, the triplex pump and welded steel frame. Nonetheless, the addition of two 13" pneumatic wheels simplifies maneuvering the DXPW60606, even across rough ground.
Main Features
The DeWalt DXPW60606 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: While the device doesn't feature a soap tank, detergent supply is ensured by a siphon hose. Upon connecting a soap nozzle, the pressure washer takes over the task of seamlessly combining the detergent with the water flow.
- Pressure hose: The unit comes equipped with an included 50 ft ⌀3/8" high-pressure hose, which can be neatly stored on the unit when idle, thanks to a set of convenient hooks, ensuring easy access and organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand. A rotating auxiliary side handle further improves both left-handed and right-handed users' comfort.
- Nozzles: Below, you'll find a table outlining the 5 included nozzles and their recommended surfaces.
