Real Time Leaf Removal

[@stevenclark5450]

Great job! Have you done or added anything to the mower deck to prevent or reduce leaf blowout on the chute side? If so, please share.

[@HandyGuy2016]

Not on the 61", but on the 52" I added a piece of rubber at the front discharge corner that helps a lot. I have also found that deck height and grass effect the blowout. They seem to work best around 3"-3 1/2" deck height with grass. Without grass or areas where the grass is almost non existent, it's not possible to prevent blowout.

@@HandyGuy2016 if you have any pics of the rubber piece, please share. I have a Ferris Z2 52 that I want to reduce blowout for and would love to see what you've done. Thx!

I will try to do a video on it soon

Nice!! Just picked up a pv18 for the z3. Grabbing some metal today to fab up some similar brackets for attachment. Don’t have a dump trailer, may look into some of those giant zipper bags to dump leaves into from the bagger.

[@HandyGuy2016]

I really like the PV 18, it's holding up great.

[@myke_bota7590]

Do you know the name/ make of the zipper bags and where I can buy them? Thanks for any help.

Hey I just had a question, for your normal customers with a lot of big trees do you require that a fall clean up be done more than once?

[@HandyGuy2016]

We do a cleanup before Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas (if needed)

[@theokranz]

@HandyGuy2016 okay cool thanks for the reply. I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this without all my customers trying to wait until the last minute. I'm in mn so who knows when we'll end up getting snow

Hi mate, I'm from Australia and love your videos, can I ask what the face masks you wear are? I could definately do with one of those for dusty jobs 👍

[@HandyGuy2016]

I use neck gaiters in safety green, I order them on Amazon. I don't use a specific brand, just whatever I find with good reviews and a good price. There are different materials, colors, lengths, and thickness. I recommend going with the longer length.

How much cost for that bag? I know they used to have them they wasn’t really on the market

[@HandyGuy2016]

Not sure what the current price is, but $3000 a year ago.

Would have just made back and forth passes until i got them close to the front and mulched them to pieces and blew the particles across the road.
