My gasoline model is 3200 psi. Have to be very careful with that much pressure when cleaning wooden steps and wooden deck.

I’ve got a gas pressure washer that I bought from menards at least 15 years ago. I use it to wash down everything from dog pens, the house, patio, etc. It’s got a Honda motor on it and runs like a champ!

Trick with any small gas engine equipment. No ethanol, just high test or non ethanol regular gas.....

I hauled garbage for 20 yrs. We had a 220V steam cleaner that burned diesel fuel. It came in real handy deep-cleaning oil, grease, gunk. When you have a wheel seal start leaking a steam cleaner comes in handy. If you ever deal with oil/grease/grime it's something to consider.


Life ain't supposed to be easy.

I have had a 3000psi briggs washer for 10+ years no problems. As with all small engines that don't run monthly I try not to run any alcohol, add sea-foam to gas when I run it, and completely run it out of gas when I'm done using it. If you live in a cold area take the hoses off and drain the pump before winter storage or the pump could crack if it freezes.

Anyone ever use one to flesh hides? I watched a video awhile back of a guy fleshing a beaver with a power washer.


"Yeah Henry. Yeah, it's up there.. A whole valley full of prime beaver. A man could live easy the rest of his days."

Several on the Fur handling forum have talked about it
