Description

With a powerful Honda engine, reliable triplex pump and welded steel frame construction, this gas pressure washer is great for construction, equipment upkeep, facility & fleet maintenance cleaning.

Zoom on the Simpson PS60869

In a nutshell, the Simpson PS60869 is a heavy duty, commercial pressure washer, which not only offers an all-around versatile cleaning experience, but that also allows:

  • pinpoint spot cleaning of hard, unpainted surfaces, accessing high areas, and successfully removing stubborn stains
  • overall cleaning of hard surfaces, washing vehicles, and prepping surfaces for painting
  • delicate surface cleaning, andbroad area cleaning with reduced pressure
  • applying detergents or chemicals, and rinsing surfaces afterward

Its power characteristics and design, its main features and all its additional features are presented ahead.

Power

The Simpson PS60869 in use

The Simpson PS60869

Its triplex pump, which utilizes an impressive 270cc (9 hp) engine, may deliver a pressure of up to 4000 PSI (almost 67 times more than a standard garden hose) and a flow of up to 3.5 GPM. Corresponding to these values is a cleaning power of 14000 Cleaning Units.

Initiating the Honda GX270 engine of this gas pressure washer is achieved through a classic pull-start process.

Fuel for the pressure washer is housed in a steel tank capable of holding up to 1.6 gallon of gasoline.

Design & Handling

With its wheelbarrow design, the Simpson PS60869 delivers superior maneuverability and stability, facilitating easy transport and steady performance across various surfaces. The robust welded steel frame guarantees longevity of the assembly, providing stability and protection for internal components, even under demanding working conditions. The handle adds to the PS60869 convenience of transport.

With its hefty 120 lbs, this unit isn't exactly easy to handle, making manual lifting and transport quite a daunting task, especially on uneven terrain. The major reasons for its heavy weight are its 270cc Honda GX270 engine, the triplex pump and welded steel frame. Despite this, the presence of two 13" pneumatic wheels reduces the complexity of moving the PS60869, even on rugged surfaces.

Main Features

The Simpson PS60869

The Simpson PS60869 comes with a spray gun, a wand, a pressure hose, 5 nozzles and a detergent injection feature, which are detailed below.

  • Pressure hose: With a set of convenient hooks, the unit offers a practical solution for maintaining workspace order, allowing the included 50 ft ⌀3/8" high-pressure hose to be neatly stored when idle.
  • Spray gun and wand: The included classic ergonomic spray gun and its steel wand can be easily stored in a side hook.
  • Nozzles: Review the table below to learn about the 5 included nozzles and the surfaces they're recommended for.
