With a powerful 210cc engine powering it, the axial cam pump of this unit are capable of achieving a pressure of 3400 PSI (approximately 57 times greater than that of a standard garden hose) and a flow rate of up to 2.5 GPM (CETA-certified values).

Starting the CRX 210 engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
The pressure washer's tank has a maximum capacity of 0.7 gallon for storing gasoline..
Design & Handling
The Simpson CM61083 is very mobile, due to its hand truck design and approximate dimensions of D13.5 x W22 x H29.3 in.

The handle adds to the CM61083 convenience of transport.
With a weight of 63 lbs, the unit is comfortably maneuverable for most users, allowing for efficient handling during cleaning tasks. This weight is largely influenced by the presence of the 210cc CRX 210 engine and a robust steel frame. Yet, its two 10" pneumatic wheels ensure the CM61083 remains effortlessly maneuverable.
