Prepare the cleaning solution as instructed on the solution bottle. When cleaning with the pressure washer, some cleaning tasks can be solved with water alone, but for most tasks cleaning with detergent allows for more effective dirt removal. Connect the garden hose adaptor to the water inlet of the pressure washer, then Champion Power Equipment thread your garden hose into the garden hose adaptor (Fig. 16). The garden hose must have an internal diameter of at least 13 mm (1/2 in.) and must be reinforced. The water supply must be at least equal to the washer delivery capacity. When it comes to home washing duties a portable pressure washer is the ultimate hack.
You can also fill them with two different cleaning solutions for easy multi-surface cleaning. Switch between tanks with the detergent selection dial, which also allows you to control the concentration of soap. One of the most important metrics to consider before purchasing an electric pressure washer is “PSI,” which stands for pounds per square inch. This metric is essentially a measure of how much power your electric pressure washer produces. All pressure washer wands have a way to prevent accidental engagement of the trigger.
We also have the knowledge and expertise to help shoppers find exactly what they’re looking for in a purchase. This product is also refurbished, helping you save money while being in a new, pristine condition. I just bought the SPX3500 to take care of some more stubborn driveway cleaning chores that my SPX3000 couldn’t. Champion Power Equipment Imagine my surprise when the 3500 would barely power the 13″ pressure washer surface cleaner my 3000 model would. The pressure coming out the other end would barely take the mildew off the drive let alone the grime. Whatever we do and whatever the size of our house is, cleaning has always been a part of it all.
I’ve been using one from time to time around the house, but you have to think of your neighbors when operating a gas-powered pressure washer, as they are noisy. We recently bought an RV and take that away with a trailer-load of toys. My boys both have a motocross bike each, and man they get dirty. So, I went out onto the market for a small lightweight unit that we can easily take with us and that I can use to clean around the house too. Through my business, I’ve owned probably a dozen high-pressure washers over the years. Way back when, we had Karcher electric washers; they were good but had a maximum pressure of 2000psi, which for some of our jobs just wasn’t powerful enough.
Don’t forget to follow the instructions in the user manual, and always take care to choose the most appropriate nozzle for each task as per the manufacturer’s guidance. This high-pressure, multi-purpose brush allows you to sweep away dirt, debris grime with the power of water pressure! Compatible with all SPX Series Pressure Washers.
