Craftsman 8.75 Torque Rating (206cc) Hard Top Chipper Vac —

I have around 1 acre with 10 large silver maples (propellers and massive amounts of leaves) and I have historically used a 3 bin bagger. The bagger takes me approximately 16 hours to pick up all the leaves in my lawn and about 160 bags! Using the vacuum I did my yard in 2 hours and I am spoiled. Putting together took some time but overall was straightforward. It is a good idea to measure 3 times and cut once on the deck adapter since accounting for curves in your cutting deck is tricky at best. Even if you cut it poorly the vacuum has enough suction to pull all the clippings and the clippings stuff any gaps that may exist. Make no mistake-this is a must have attachment not just for leaves but also good if your grass gets too long and you don't want excess clippings. Downside is it's heavy and bangs up the tractor hitch pretty good but so far nothing but some dents and scrapes. Summary-don't waste your time, get it and you'll wonder why you went without it! Great value and quality construction!!
