Powerhorse 115179 - 4400 PSI 4.2 GPM 420cc Gas Pressure Washer

Power

Using a powerful 420cc engine, its triplex pump delivers a pressure of up to 4400 PSI (roughly 73 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 4.2 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer). When these values are taken together, they yield a cleaning power of 18480 Cleaning Units.

To start the engine of this gas-powered washer, users employ the familiar pull-start technique.

Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 1.72 gallon.

Design & Handling

Designed with a wheelbarrow configuration, the Powerhorse 115179 ensures improved mobility and stability, allowing for effortless movement and reliable operation on challenging surfaces. The durable steel tubing frame of the assembly ensures its longevity, providing stability and shielding internal components from damage, even in tough conditions. The reversible handle offers further versatility, as its different positions make the unit less bulky when stored.

Tipping the scales at 142 lbs, this unit's weight presents a notable challenge for users, especially when it comes to lifting and moving it, particularly over uneven ground. Its 420cc engine, the triplex pump and steel tubing frame add up to a large chunk of the device's weight. Nonetheless, the addition of two 12" pneumatic wheels simplifies maneuvering the 115179, even across rough ground.

Main Features

The Powerhorse 115179 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 4 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.

• Soap injection: A safe detergent storage is facilitated by a dedicated tank. The Powerhorse 115179 features an automatic soap dilution mechanism that dilutes detergent according to a predefined ratio of 15:1. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
• Pressure hose: Utilizing a set of convenient hooks, the unit offers a convenient solution for storing the included 50 ft ⌀3/8" high-pressure hose when it's not in use, keeping it neatly organized.
• Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
• Nozzles: The following table provides information on the 4 included nozzles and their recommended surface uses.

Important note: The shapes of the depicted nozzles serve for illustration purposes only and may vary. Symbols used include a red cross for 'Not recommended,' a green check for 'Suitable,' and an orange check for 'Use with caution.'
