Well sence fall is apon us, we all want to clean our lawns up. Now I and others have sweepers, and some have powerd vac's,just figured I would show you all what I feel is the BEST for sucking up all the stuff.

Case, and later Ingersoll offers a hydro powerd vac attachment for there tractors. THIS THING IS AWSOME! It is a big fan, powerd by a hydro motor, hooked up to the tractors hydro system. Best thing, is it is powerd, but it in not that loud. Some of the units out there have there own motors, and they work fime, but you got this motor screeming right behind your ears. It does not have to be attached to the deck, you can use it with just a hose, and it will suck the leaves right off the trees, no need to wait till they fall:D

OK there are some faults with it.

I have to remove the sleve hitch on the tractor to hook it up

it uses three bags, and wile they are big, still need more room for me.[working on a cart for it]

You need a Case, or Ingersoll tractor.:D [well could adapt it to something else, but it needs like 7-10 gpm hydro flow, roules out 99.999% of garden tractors]

It's pricy. got mine used, and still a ton of cash.

Heres a picture.........

Yup they still make them, last time I prices it the whole setup was around $1400.00.

yup it is aples, but not mine. Thats my Mom's yard, and the trees are across the road.
nope no deck needed. Works totaly on it's own.
It will chop it up a bit if dry, but mostly the cutting deck does most of the cutting. It is REAL nice for sucking leaves out of planting beds, and around bushes though. Sucks them right up.
