Ahead are presented its power characteristics and design, its main features and any other additional features.
Power
Its axial cam pump, which utilizes an impressive 208cc (7 hp) engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 3100 PSI (almost 52 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.5 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 7750 Cleaning Units.
For this gas-powered pressure washer, the Ducar engine is started using a time-tested pull-start mechanism.
The pressure washer's tank has a maximum capacity of 0.3 gallon for storing gasoline..
Design & Handling
The Pulsar W31H19 boasts great mobility, courtesy of its convenient hand truck design. The sturdy metal frame ensures the longevity of the assembly, offering stability and protection for internal components, even during rigorous use. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the W31H19 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
Weighing in at 75 lbs, it's safe to say this unit isn't lightweight, which might pose difficulties for users when it comes to lifting and transporting, particularly over uneven surfaces. Its 208cc Ducar engine and metal frame add up to a large chunk of the device's weight. However, the incorporation of two 12" never-flat wheels makes navigating the W31H19 less cumbersome, even on uneven terrain.
Main Features
The Pulsar W31H19's package includes a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, with a more detailed description below.
- Soap injection: The pressure washer comes equipped with a dedicated tank to store detergent. As the Pulsar W31H19 does not include a soap dilution mechanism, it's essential to ensure proper detergent dilution before operating the pressure washer. Attachment of a soap nozzle prompts the pressure washer to automatically introduce and blend the detergent with the water.
- Pressure hose: With a set of convenient hooks, the unit provides a convenient way to store the included 30 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose when not in use, keeping it organized and readily accessible.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
- Nozzles: Review the table below to learn about the 5 included nozzles and the surfaces they're recommended for.
