Pull behind lawn vac questions
Hey guys we moved into our retirement home a little over two years ago . It is 2.5 acres with many trees on the land and surrounded by tons of trees . So when the leaves start falling it's a lot of work to manually rake and transport .
I have a chance to purchase a used pull behind lawn vac . It is all metal with manual tilt/dump. It has a 5 hp B&S engine . Visually it is in great shape and the seller says the engine fires right up . Any of you guys use one of these ?
I know they may be cumbersome in tight spots but for the majority of our lawn that's not an issue. I will be pulling this behind a John Deere 16 hp diesel garden tractor with a 50" deck . Because the vac is all metal storage will be a minor issue but I can work around that. What things do I need to know ?
