LXT cordless pressure washer DHW180Z

Mobility and efficiency in one device

The LXT cordless pressure washer is a solution that eliminates the need to plug into a socket or search for a pressurized water source. The device operates based on the 18V LXT system, allowing for free movement around the garden, workshop, or even inside a garage without the limitations imposed by power cable length or suction hose. Thanks to its compact design and a weight of only 2.3 to 2.7 kg including the battery, operation is intuitive even for individuals with less physical strength. This is not just a washing tool – it is a mobile cleaning station that responds to the needs of both a professional performing quick service tasks and a home user maintaining the cleanliness of a car or terrace.

Application and work flexibility

The device has been designed to handle various types of dirt. A maximum working pressure of up to 24 bar and a water flow rate of 150 liters per hour ensure effective removal of dust, mud, or construction residue. A key element is the 350 mm lance, equipped with a head featuring a rotating ring. This allows for a quick change between one of five operating modes – from gentle water spraying to a powerful jet stream. Such flexibility means that one device replaces several different nozzles: you can carefully wash delicate bodywork elements or effectively rinse gaps in paving stones. It is worth noting that the device features XPT (eXtra Protection Technology), which means increased resistance to dust and moisture – crucial when working in difficult outdoor conditions or when in contact with pressurized water.

Technical benefits and operating time

For an installer or user, the most important aspect is reliability and operating time without interruptions for charging. The washer achieves a maximum power of 250 W, which translates to stable pump operation. Operating time depends on the capacity of the battery used: using an 18 V cell with a capacity of 3.0 Ah, you can expect approximately 18 minutes of continuous operation in high-pressure mode (or up to 50 minutes at a lower intensity). With a 5.0 Ah battery, this time extends to 30 minutes in maximum mode (or even up to 83 minutes with lower consumption).

The device operates on the 18 V LXT voltage system, achieving a working pressure range from 8 to 24 bar with dimensions of approximately 419 x 99 x 239 mm. The noise level during operation in high-pressure mode is approximately 84 dB(A), which is a typical value for this type of portable cleaning device. The set includes everything necessary for an immediate start: the DHW180Z unit itself, the lance with nozzle, a connector with a filter protecting the pump from contaminants, and a nozzle cleaning pin. However, it should be remembered that the "Body" version does not include a battery or charger – these are available separately or in starter kits. This allows the user to utilize existing LXT system batteries from the manufacturer MAKITA, significantly lowering the entry cost into the cordless system.
