Black Max Power Washer
Saturday, September 8, 2012
The BlackMax Pressure Washer is a good combo of price and power for the amateur power-washer. But for those who aren’t in the power-washing biz, all these features and specs can seem a little overwhelming. We here at Woot are big power-washer geeks, and we’re happy to talk you through some of the more complicated specs.
Maintenance free pump with brass header
This one is great, because you wouldn’t believe how extortionate the pump maintenance union is.
Engine Type: Air-cooled 4-stroke OHC
I mean, it’s no water-cooled 6-stroke engine, but then again it’s wayyy better than a 2-stroke magma-cooled engine, amiright?
PTO Shaft Rotation: Counterclockwise (from PTO shaft side)
Um…DUH…this is the Northern Hemisphere.
Carburetor: Horizontal type butterfly valve
And to think that only a few weeks ago it was a vertical type caterpillar valve.
Ignition System: Transistorized magneto
Is that what it’s called when Professor Xavier wipes Eric Lehnsherr’s memory and gives him a normal life instead of killing him?
Governor System: Centrifugal Mechanical
Way better than the whole “Democratic Republic” people have been so obsessed with lately.
