Leaf Vac 3pt PTO driven

[WillyBill]

Does anyone have any experience with a Peruzzo Turbo400 tractor mounted and driven debris loader?

I want to drive down the driveway, suck the leaves out of the ditches and blow the debris further out.

Looks like a lot of work. Stop, lower to the ground, hop off tractor, clear 20' of ditch, get back on the tractor, raise, drive 20', repeat. But... it is very controlled what you are going after and where you are putting it.
My neighbor has one of those massive 'little wonder' blowers. blows the ditch clean, the debris 20' away and he just sits and crawls along. Effortless.

I csnt speak to that blower but I have a PTO vac with a cart and its an excellent way to clean out beds and fence lines. The blower is also a chopper.

What PTO vac do you have?

What PTO vac do you have?

Good question - I dont really know

The cart is a home made abomination with an old TracVac cover. The blower is 3pt mounted and also from a TracVac - presumably the same model as the cover. There is a tralier ball hitch on the blower that is used to pull the cart.

What I do know is the price was right

This is part of my driveway looking up with the county road behind me. Just blowing it to the side won’t work because of the banks. I have to blow it all the way down and across the county road at the bottom and I don’t like doing that. That’s why I’m looking for a debris vacuum/shedder/blower.

This picture is before the leaves really started falling.

I might could fix a hanger for the nozzle that would allow me to stay on the tractor and just drive down or up the driveway. See the picture of my driveway in my additional post.

The blower is currently buried in the back of an equipment shed. Nothing sepecial - just a normal 3PT implement with a long hose. Looks like this but PTO shaft instead of motor.
