NorthStar 1571343 - 4000 PSI 3.5 GPM 420cc Gas Pressure Washer

Power

With an impressive fuel-injected 420cc engine, its triplex pump delivers a pressure of 4000 PSI (roughly 67 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 3.5 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the NorthStar 1571343's cleaning power of 14000 Cleaning Units.

For this gas-powered pressure washer, the NorthStar e420 engine is started using a time-tested pull-start mechanism.

Design & Handling

Characterized by its wheelbarrow layout, the NorthStar 1571343 provides improved mobility and stability, facilitating easy movement and steadfast operation for effective cleaning results. Built to endure, the steel tubing frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.

With its weight clocking in at 249 lbs, this unit's heftiness can't be ignored, presenting significant difficulties for users who need to lift and transport it, especially over uneven terrain. A key role in its final weight is played by its 420cc NorthStar e420 engine, the triplex pump and steel tubing frame. However, the incorporation of two 15" never-flat wheels makes navigating the 1571343 less cumbersome, even on uneven terrain.

Main Features

Along with the NorthStar 1571343 itself, the package also includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are discussed in further detail below.

• Soap injection: While not equipped with a soap tank, the device maintains detergent supply through a siphon hose. The detergent is diluted with a 15:1 ratio by the NorthStar 1571343's automatic soap dilution mechanism. Connection of a soap nozzle triggers the pressure washer to automatically incorporate the detergent into the water stream.
• 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.
• Nozzles: Find details on the 4 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications in the table below.
