CA-4004-1MAK Gas Pressure Washer — CA Aluminum Series 4000 PSI with Kohler CH440
The CA-4004-1MAK produces 4000 PSI at 3.5 GPM — 14,000 cleaning units — from a 429cc Kohler CH440 OHV engine paired with an AR crankshaft pump on Mi-T-M's 125-lb aluminum frame. The CH440 is Kohler's largest single-cylinder commercial engine, providing the displacement and torque reserve appropriate for sustained 4000 PSI output. Among the four CA-4004 standard engine variants, the 1MAK is the choice for operations with Kohler dealer accounts, for facilities that maintain CH440-powered equipment, or for buyers who prefer Kohler's commercial engine warranty terms. ETL listed for US commercial use.
CA-4004-1MAK Engine Selection and Output
At 14,000 CU the CA-4004 handles applications beyond the CA-3504's capacity — stripping loose coatings from masonry, removing dense industrial fouling from equipment, and sustaining high cleaning output across large vehicle fleets. The Kohler CH440 at 429cc is the largest available engine on the CA-4004 frame. Its cast-iron cylinder liner and full-pressure lubrication system are the same construction features used in Kohler commercial engines rated for high-hour industrial applications.
4000 PSI at 3.5 GPM (14,000 CU) — maximum standard output in the CA Aluminum Series; handles coating stripping, dense industrial fouling, and large-fleet washing
ETL listed, vibration isolation plate — ETL certification for commercial procurement; vibration plate reduces pump seal wear
50-ft × 3/8-in hose, 48-in lance, CX-0098 External Bypass available — complete kit; bypass ordered separately and installed at point of sale
CA-4004-1MAK Applications and Environments
Operations with Kohler-powered floor sweepers, compressors, or aerial work platforms add the CA-4004-1MAK to unify their engine inventory: one parts supplier, one oil specification, one service technician across equipment categories. Heavy industrial cleaning contractors use the 14,000 CU output for applications requiring more than one pass from the CA-3504. Fleet operations washing tanker trucks, buses, and heavy-duty trailers rely on the 4000 PSI output for efficient removal of road salt, diesel exhaust deposits, and oil contamination. Construction firms apply it to concrete surface preparation and equipment cleaning before redeployment.
CA-4004-1MAK GPM, PSI, and Nozzle Configuration
Rated at 3.5 GPM at 4000 PSI (14,000 cleaning units) at rated flow. Includes quick-connect nozzles in 0°, 15°, and 25° patterns; 50-ft × 3/8-in non-marking high-pressure hose; 48-in lance with insulated trigger gun. Cold water only. 49-state engine — not for sale in California.

Why choose the Kohler CH440 (1MAK) over the Honda GX390 (1MAH) on the CA-4004?
Both produce 4000 PSI / 3.5 GPM (14,000 CU) from the same 125-lb aluminum frame with an AR pump. Choose 1MAK if your operation maintains Kohler CH440 engines in other equipment (standardizing parts and service) or if your regional Kohler dealer offers faster service than Honda alternatives. Both carry ETL listing.
What displacement does the Kohler CH440 have and why is it specified for 4000 PSI?
The Kohler CH440 displaces 429cc — the largest single-cylinder commercial engine in Kohler's CH series. At 4000 PSI the AR pump draws significantly more torque than at 3000 PSI. The CH440's displacement provides the torque reserve needed to maintain rated 3.5 GPM flow under sustained heavy load without lugging or overheating.
What is the output comparison between the CA-4004-1MAK and the CA-3504-1MAK?
The CA-4004-1MAK produces 4000 × 3.5 = 14,000 CU. The CA-3504-1MAK produces 3500 × 3.5 = 12,250 CU. The CA-4004 delivers 14% more cleaning output from the same frame and pump type, driven by 500 more PSI and the CH440's larger displacement over the 1MAK's prior CH440 configuration.
Can the CA-4004-1MAK be sold or operated in California?
No. The 429cc Kohler CH440 is a 49-state engine that does not comply with California CARB small engine emissions standards. The CA-4004-1MAK cannot be sold or registered for use in California.
Is the CA-4004-1MAK ETL listed?
Yes. The CA-4004-1MAK carries ETL listing from Intertek. This confirms the unit meets applicable US safety standards and is accepted by local inspection authorities for commercial use, equivalent to UL listing.
What bypass system does the CA-4004-1MAK use?
The CX-0098 External Bypass System is available for the CA-4004-1MAK and must be ordered with the unit. It routes additional water through the AR pump when the trigger is closed, preventing heat build-up in the pump head at sustained 4000 PSI operating pressure.

Located in the Twin Cities in Minnesota, we acquired our Brio Air Filter in mid-late Spring of this year (2023) when pollen count was high and we were beginning to experience the effects of Poor Air Quality Index as a result of smoke particulates from fires in Canada that caused the air in much of Minnesota to become hazy and simply dirty.
It is so easy to share our experience with the Brio Air Filter given how quickly and efficiently it removed pollen, dust, and smoke particles from the environment inside our home. Two people in our home who suffer from pollen-related allergies during the spring immediately experienced easier breathing and elimination of symptoms within the house. With respect to smoke particulates from Canada drifting into our environment, EVERYONE in our home experienced directly improved breathing and smell of the air when entering from outside.
An additional piece of information to account for is that we have always employed high grade furnace filters in our home’s central HVAC system. With that high grade filtration in place both prior to and after acquiring a Brio home air filter, we all quickly agreed that deploying the Brio in our home made an easily noticeable positive difference in breathing inside our home. Additionally, those of us who clean our home have observed that dust builds up slower on our floors and furniture than before we deployed the Brio unit.
We did note that the Brio is not as quiet as a few other brands/models on the market that we have tried in our home but the efficiency and quality of the filtration, along with the air turnover rate it provides,allows us to locate the Brio unit in central rooms away from the bedrooms. Since we made that change there has been no noise-related effect on our sleep, while the unit maintains the same level of air cleanliness throughout our home.
A last key point to make is how easy the Brio unit is to maintain. The simplicity of the modular construction of the Brio unit makes it very quick and easy to keep the filtration sections clean. We have not yet reached a point of filter replacement but it is obvious to us that the replacement will take a matter of seconds and can be executed by anyone in our home, including our 10-year-old son.
It seems to help reduce my allergy issues. We're glad we bought it. The only problem I had was not seeing any cubic footage recommendations in the online description when purchasing the unit. Bedrooms vary widely in size!!
