Power
With an impressive 208cc engine powering it, the axial cam pump of this unit is capable of achieving a pressure of 3200 PSI (approximately 53 times greater than that of a standard garden hose) and a flow rate of up to 2.5 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 8000 Cleaning Units.
Starting the Briggs & Stratton CR950 engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
Containing gasoline, the pressure washer's fuel tank can hold a maximum of 0.8 gallon.
Design & Handling
The Husqvarna 022013 boasts great mobility, courtesy of its convenient hand truck design. With its strong welded steel frame, the assembly is built to last, providing stability and safeguarding internal components, even in challenging environments. The folding handle enhances its mobility, while allowing for a convenient storage.
This unit, weighing 66 lbs, strikes a comfortable balance between portability and stability, ensuring easy maneuvering for users of various strengths. This weight is largely influenced by the presence of the 208cc Briggs & Stratton CR950 engine and a robust welded steel frame. Even so, the 022013's two 10" never-flat wheels maintain easy maneuverability.
