Zoom on the Excell EPW1792500

- targeted spot cleaning for hard, unpainted surfaces, reaching elevated areas, and thoroughly removing stubborn stains
- general cleaning of hard surfaces , washing vehicles, and preparing surfaces for painting
- gentle cleaning of delicate surfaces, and low pressure cleaning of larger areas
- using cleaning solutions, and rinsing surfaces to remove residue
Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
With a 179cc (6 hp) engine, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2500 PSI (roughly 42 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.3 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the Excell EPW1792500's cleaning power of 5750 Cleaning Units.
To initiate the Rato R180-3 engine of this gas-powered pressure washer, a traditional pull-start mechanism is employed.
Containing gasoline, the pressure washer's fuel tank can hold a maximum of 0.95 gallon.
Design & Handling
With its wheelbarrow-inspired design, the Excell EPW1792500 aims for excellent mobility and stability, enabling effortless maneuvering and dependable performance across diverse environments. The metal frame's robustness ensures the assembly's longevity, maintaining stability and protecting internal components, even in the harshest environments. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.
Weighing in at 71 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 main contributors to its weight are its 179cc Rato R180-3 engine and metal frame. However, the incorporation of two 10" pneumatic wheels makes navigating the EPW1792500 less cumbersome, even on uneven terrain.
Main Features
The Excell EPW1792500 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. The pressure washer automatically dispenses and mixes the detergent with the water when a soap nozzle is attached.
- Pressure hose: The included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when not in use, utilizing a set of convenient hooks for convenient organization.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook enables you to easily store the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
- Nozzles: The table below shows you the 5 included nozzles and the surfaces they're the most appropriate for.
