Power

The Powerhorse 115176 in use

The Powerhorse 115176

Its axial cam pump, which utilizes an impressive 212cc (6 hp) engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 3400 PSI (almost 57 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.7 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 9180 Cleaning Units.

The engine of this gas pressure washer is activated by pulling a starter cord, following a traditional approach.

Fuel for the pressure washer is housed in a steel tank capable of holding up to 0.95 gallon of gasoline.

Design & Handling

With its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D25.5 x W21 x H38.5 in, the Powerhorse 115176 provides great mobility. The robust steel frame guarantees longevity of the assembly, providing stability and protection for internal components, even under demanding working conditions. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the 115176 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.

With a weight of 68 lbs, the unit is comfortably maneuverable for most users, allowing for efficient handling during cleaning tasks. The incorporation of the 212cc engine and a durable steel frame contribute considerably to its overall weight. Still, the 115176's two 10" never-flat wheels ensure easy handling and maneuverability.

Main Features

The Powerhorse 115176's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.

  • Soap injection: Detergent is stored in a dedicated tank. The detergent is diluted with a 15:1 ratio by the Powerhorse 115176's automatic soap dilution mechanism. The pressure washer automatically dispenses and mixes the detergent with the water when a soap nozzle is attached.
  • Pressure hose: The unit comes equipped with an included 30 ft ⌀5/16" 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: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
  • Nozzles: Find details on the 4 included nozzles and their recommended surface applications in the table below.
