With a 150 cc engine, its axial cam pump delivers a pressure of 2200 PSI (roughly 37 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2 GPM (values as per PW101-2010), resulting in the PowerStroke PS80519B's cleaning power of 4400 Cleaning Units.
The engine of this gas-powered pressure washer gets started by a classic pull-start mechanism.
A fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.31 gallon is used to store gasoline.

Most users can maneuver this model easily, as it weighs just 58.1 lbs. A major component of its weight are its 150 cc engine and steel tubing frame. Nethertheless, thanks to its two never-flat wheels, the PS80519B remains very easy to manipulate and maneuver.
Main Features
