Description
Zoom on the Ryobi RY141900
The Ryobi RY141900 is a medium duty pressure washer, and enables:
- intense cleaning of tough, paintless surfaces
- applying detergent and cleaning solutions
- intense cleaning of hard surfaces
Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.
Power
With a 13 amp motor, its aluminum axial pump delivers a pressure of 2000 PSI (roughly 33 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 1.2 GPM (values claimed by the manufacturer), resulting in the Ryobi RY141900's cleaning power of 2400 Cleaning Units.
Since it is an electric pressure washer, the motor of the RY141900 is started simply by an ON/OFF switch. The unit is ready-to-use with peace of mind, thanks to the included 35 ft GFCI cord.
Design & Handling
The Ryobi RY141900 offers superb mobility, with a hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D16.5 x W19.2 x H34 in. The strong steel tubing frame assures assembly longevity. The foam-padded fixed handle adds to the RY141900 convenience of transport, while offering a comfortable grip.
The unit can be very easily carried around, as it weighs just 32 lbs. As if this lightweight wasn't enough, the device also features two 7" wheels to further improve its ease of use and of transport.
Main Features
The Ryobi RY141900 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 3 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.
- Soap injection: Detergent storage is ensured by a removable 1 gal tank. The detergent is diluted with a 20:1 ratio by the Ryobi RY141900's automatic soap dilution mechanism. Whenever a soap nozzle is connected, the detergent is automatically added to the water.
- Pressure hose: The included 25 ft ⌀1/4" high-pressure hose can be neatly stored on the unit when idle thanks to a convenient hose reel, which also improves its lifespan.
- Spray gun and wand: A side hook allows for an easy storage of the included classic ergonomic spray gun and its wand.
