When it comes to efficiency and practicality, nothing compares to the Professional Leaf Suction Unit (PSU) from SCH Supplies Ltd which is hungry to clear up large areas of fallen leaves.
The PSU features a powerful 9hp Honda engine which is mounted next to the fan on a two-wheeled chassis.
An essential feature is that the fan is belt driven and not connected directly to the crankshaft; this increases the lifespan of the engine, as the engine does not get jolted if a rock is accidentally sucked up and hits the fan blades.
The green waste passing through the fan is chopped up and propelled into the trailer, greatly increasing the storage density, allowing for fewer empties per day and saving a great deal of time and cost in labour.
The favourite way of using the unit is to attach it to the rear of a leaf collecting trailer. SCH manufacture specially adapted trailers with impressive storage, allowing leaves to be emptied somewhere more suitable.
Alternatively, they can send you a trailer adaption kit, allowing you to modify your own trailer, and SCH can even collect your trailer and modify it for you.
