what is the difference between the karcher k5-540 and the karcher k5-740, both being 2000 psi. ?

I have both the 540 and 740, and the only difference between the two is the color arrangement of the plastic housing.

I've read that the 2 machines are exactly the same except for the housing on the K5.740 is more rugged and heavy duty. The K5.540 is strictly designed for consumer usage the K5.740 more commercial. The pump and motor are exactly the same on the 2 models. The K5.540 has a yellow front with a black X and the K5.740 has the black front with a yellow X.

I don't think there are difference. But ask karcher themselves, they can tell you

I would think the 740 is a newer model..but don't know for sure. Will tell you that we really like the one we have..we have lots of deck and porch railing and siding..it does a great job.

I could not help you on the question. My comments were on the quality of the model no I had bought and it turned out to very poorly built and assembled piece of junk.

The psi goes up to 2000 but there is a strong recommendation to not charge to max capacity. Over charging will not increase the velocity of the shot and can ruin seals.

Since I do not have that model, I am not sure about the K5, I would go to Karcher's website and see it they have a list of accessories for your model. You should be able to email/chat with them to find out. The response from Chuck R (below) says it should fit any electric pressure washer. I have accessories from a much older Karcher electric pressure washer that works with my newer electric model. If you have a Gasoline powered model the pressure WILL be higher and you will need different accessories for your own safety.

I bought the 54018 and it's been a perfect fan. I can't see the difference between those two models, either. Also I saw that Hunter doesn't sell the 23688 any longer.

Model 516 goes up to 120 psi. You will probably want Model 501 which goes up to 160 psi.

Not sure of the difference, but the 9552 is excellent. Got (2) have held up in dusty drywall conditions, still working great. Well worth the money. Don't buy In store look alike's, they don't hold up.

No parts available, and the company doesn't answer emails. End of story. If you want decent quality, with a no-cost extra called "professional customer service", buy a Karcher SC5.800C. It costs more, lasts much, much longer, and the old maxim applies - Only rich people can afford to buy cheap (Chinese) goods.

Higher psi is more abrasive less volume does less work depends on your application

I am not sure how long a 450c will take to fill a 2 gal tank to 150 PSI, but if you are looking for a 12volt compressor, then this one will do it faster than any others. I regularly use mine to fill a 20 gallon pressure tank to 80 PSI, and it only takes a few minutes to do so.

The difference as I understand with the KG5 would be the size 6/10oz selector and the water tank. I am very happy with the KG2-001. I would buy it again and recommend it to others. It has absolutely no bells or whistles and I did not want or need any. Fewer things that could go wrong. Hope that's helpful.

I haven't, but I'm sure the K4 works just fine. It's a little less expensive. I think the K5 is just a little faster with the clamping and it's got that hole for a shop vac. Pocket holes will be just as good with either one.

Sorry, not sure about psi. The gauge on my piece of crap schrader pump broke on one of the first uses. I just know that it filled it up. But for me, the co2 would leak out, even in new tubes, front and rear, within a couple of days. So I'm now hunting for a floor schrader pump, and will just keep this for emergencies.

Specs say 35gph with MAX pressure of 7 psi... It maintained under 5 psi feeding a edelbrock 650 cfm carb on a 460 motor. Also, Mine lasted less than 50 miles.. I'm assuming it was defective. I have replaced it with a Holley Red + regulator and while it is louder (I even have it rubber mounted) it is able to maintain the 5psi I need.

The DWE7480 has a wider rip capacity of 24.5", the motor is a different design, spinning at about 5000 rpm, the older one was about 3800(?) rpm....

This is the same pump. I don't have the PSI info, my motorhome is in storage at the moment.

The only difference between the two is their packaging. 25475A model ships in its original container, whereas the 25475 ships in Amazon packaging.

To be completely honest, I don't know that there is a difference. At first I thought the motor might be a bit stronger in the 1700, but they both say 450 watt. Sorry I couldn't help any further than that.
