Delivering more airflow with less power demand on your tractor, the new Leaf-Blower (LB100) from GKB Machines promises greater efficiency and fast, effective clearance of leaves and other debris.
In development for a number of years, the GKB Leaf-Blower has been designed to meet the exacting requirements of modern golf course and sports turf management.
With low power requirements of under 40hp and a PTO-driven fan, the blower offers powerful performance with limited load on your tractor.
As is now expected with GKB, the new machine incorporates the very best of robust, precision engineering for durable, long-lasting reliability. It features solid tyres, an anti-scalp roller and a lightweight, yet study, 875mm diameter metal fan. With an air capacity of 380 m³/min, the Leaf-Blower provides outstanding productivity for the fast and effective clearance of leaves, pine needles and other debris.
The hydraulically operated rear chute allows you to swiftly change speed or direction of airflow, saving time on the job. The freewheel PTO and gearbox transmission ensure smooth operation and long machine life, while attaching the unit and setting the working height is quick and simple.
Its compact dimensions, weight of 360kg and a noise level of only 97 decibels make the GKB Leaf-Blower suitable for daily use on golf courses and other amenity spaces in close proximity to the public.
Commenting on its introduction, UK Operations Manager Tom Shinkins said, “The Leaf-Blower is a great addition to the GKB range and it’s already had a very positive reaction from customers and dealers alike, as they get set for the autumn season. Sitting alongside sustainable solutions like the GKB Leaf Reducer, we now offer the full complement of machinery for leaf clearance to suit all sports, situations and settings.”
