I used to use a lawn sweeper in the Fall to pick up pine needles and oak leaves. It worked great. One caution. If your lawn is not flat (ie. dips and valleys) then the sweeper can drag the wheels, which will tear up your grass. Thanks for the informative video, Brett.
Thank you for the side note. I did not know this. Thanks for watching!
The great thing about that specific sweeper is you can get the thatcher add on so you can dethatch and sweep with one pass. I’ve been looking into getting that setup before the end of this year.
Pretty sweet setup right there!
Really enjoy your JD videos!
Learned a lot. That is really all I need. Thanks!
Glad I could help and thanks for watching!
I have a lawn sweeper and bagger system and i use the lawn sweeper in the sping and fall and use the bagger the rest of the time.
So mainly the sweeper for the first cut and the last one?
@@WesternEquipment yep and fall leaves....
Thank you Brent and WE for the great content. Brent I have a aerator and a dethatcher from JD for my D130. Any chance you might demonstrate those? Thank you!
You are welcome and thanks for watching! I will add these to the list and hopefully I get a chance to do a video over them soon!
Ii use one of these and use 'Pam' spray on the bottom to slide along easier. It works to keep clippings from sticking to the backing too.
How well does it pick up sticks? every spring I have hundreds of sticks on the lawn some up to an 1 inch diameter.
Can it collect alfalfa cuts or they are to heavy to lift it?
i've been wanting one for years.. :)
They are a nice tool to have for sure!
I have two sweet gum trees in my front yard, and right now I have hundreds of gum balls from those trees in my yard. How would this sweeper do with the gum balls?
So I have two acres of a mix that is part bahalia and it grows 2 inches in 7 days. Lots of clippings.. like 6 pull behind carts chock full of healing clipping (cows love it).
Would this be too much for this sweeper?
Do you engage the mower’s blades when making a sweep or do the sweepers automatically do their job without engaging the blade?
works either way
What's the biggest thing it'll pick up? As crazy as it sounds, I'll probably find the occasional dog toy. It would probably help me more prior to mowing with twigs, small sticks and dog toys, if that wouldn't give it an issue.
I actually have tested it up to tennis balls and I know it will pick those up. I think you should be able to pick up a lot of your dog toys.
Can you use a sweeper that is significantly wider than the mower?
As long as your mower has the towing capacity to pull the weight of the sweeper and whatever you are picking up.
How closely can you maneuver a zero turn mower while it's attached? Because it would be great if I can use this while I'm mowing to save gas. If not, I'll probably just invest in a push sweeper
That would work if you are mulching. If you have a chute on the mower will shoot the grass out of the pickup path.
Could this be used behind a quad?
I used a similar sweeper behind my quad to get pinecone off my mother's lawn this past weekend. It will do it.😊
what zero turn mower are you using
I was using a Z530M in this video, but you could use almost anything with a hitch.
How to get to video on how to assemble? You mentioned 24/7?
Yes, go to our other channel 24/7 Parts and it is on there.
Will they pick up acorns? I've got millions this year...
They’ll even pick up dead bodies.
@@mcinb9thank you for asking the question we were all wondering about 😂
250 bucks if you don’t want green paint. Which costs you 900
They’re not 900 🤣
The one I have is not a John Deere. The bearings are plastic & freeze up & only picked up leaves. Would not pick up sticks, pine cones & needles. It’s completely useless. Do your homework before buying one.
Dang I hate that. I will have a short coming out soon that will show some of the things we tested picking up with this one. Make sure to check it out!
That poor tractor has a real load on its back
