Power tools manufacturer Makita has launched a new pressure washer powered by an 18V LXT Li-ion battery.
Lightweight and easy to handle, the new DHW180 LXT Pressure Washer has been designed with a nozzle that allows for five different spray modes, making it a practical option for a range of light duty washing tasks on site.
Weighing just 2.2kg (without a battery), the machine is incredibly easy to manoeuvre. The DHW180 offers a maximum pressure of 24 bar and a maximum water flow of 5.3 L/min, as well as a continuous run time of up to 82 minutes with a 5.0Ah battery. As such, it is convenient for a range of outdoor cleaning tasks on a single charge.
Designed with versatility in mind, the DHW180 pressure washer has two different power modes to switch between depending on the task, a five-in-one nozzle to change spray modes, as well as an angled brush to target difficult-to-reach areas. Additionally, a foam nozzle or a wheel brush can be added to ensure objects are left spotlessly clean.
Convenience is also key to its overall design, as water can be sourced via three methods: a hose pipe connection for a continuous supply of water, placing the filter tube into a bucket or for even smaller tasks, a large water bottle can be connected to the pressure washer.
Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager at Makita UK commented: “We are thrilled to add the new pressure washer to Makita’s growing range of cordless machines. Designed to be both convenient and practical, the DHW180 is the ideal solution for an array of light duty tasks.”
