Power
The Simpson MS60921-S's axial cam pump, powered by a 187cc (6 hp) engine, can provide a pressure of up to 3300 PSI (approximately 55 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 2.4 GPM (CETA-certified values). Thus, the Simpson MS60921-S achieves a cleaning power of 7920 Cleaning Units.
Starting the Honda GC190 engine of this gas pressure washer involves using a conventional pull-start method.
Gasoline is stored in a fuel tank with a maximum capacity of 0.48 gallon.
Design & Handling
With its wheelbarrow design, the Simpson MS60921-S delivers superior maneuverability and stability, facilitating easy transport and steady performance across various surfaces. Built to endure, the welded steel frame ensures the assembly's longevity by providing stability and safeguarding internal components under all working conditions. The handle adds to the MS60921-S convenience of transport.
At 71 lbs, we can't really say that the unit is lightweight, and manually lifting or transporting it could be a significant challenge for users, especially if they need to move it frequently or navigate over uneven terrain. The major reasons for its heavy weight are its 187cc Honda GC190 engine and welded steel frame. Nevertheless, with its two 10" pneumatic wheels, users can manage the MS60921-S with less difficulty, even over uneven terrain.
