Most users had no problem picking up large pine needles (rare when it comes to lawn sweepers), smaller pine cones, dry grass, and leaves. As with most lawn sweepers, picking up anything wet is difficult for this lawn tool.

Choosing the Best (Right) Lawn Sweeper For the Job

There are two main varieties of lawn sweepers, tow-behind and push (human powered). The push or pull lawn sweepers are human powered. Many expect the lawn sweeper to pick up large pine cones or pine needles.

Make sure the lawn sweeper you choose has adequate height adjustments for your particular yard. Moreover, the more uneven your lawn, the less effective the sweeper will be. Conversely, larger hoppers hold more.

Leaf Blower Vacuum Important Uses
Executive Summary By G. Smitty

A leaf blower vacuum could put an end to all your worries. With this equipment, it is easy to clean up litter, dry grass after mowing, and leaves on sidewalks, driveways and on yards. Cleaning large areas of waste using a rake is quite hectic. This machine is just right for everybody.

If the area you wish to clean were quite large, for example a playing ground, then it would be good to choose the machine that can easily move about without problems. The best choice would be one with fixed wheels to help with movement.

If the noise restriction in your township does limit the use of certain machines that produce high frequency noise, then it would be wise to go for the electric powered types, as they do not produce much noise. If the area where you live does not have such noise restrictions, then the gasoline powered leaf blower vacuum could be the best to use as they allow you the freedom to move about wherever you want.

You can use the blower independently to blow waste into a heap then switch off the blower and on the vacuum to suck in the heap of garbage.

The Benefits of Using a Leaf Blower Vacuum
Executive Summary By Edith Brent

When it comes to cleaning the yard, this is often a tiring and time consuming task. Not to mention when autumn hits and it is filled with dead leaves. However, the good news is that there are a number of tools that can really help with this arduous task.

Clean Your Garden Effectively
Leaf vacuums are almost like the vacuums we use inside out houses. However, they are used in the garden to ensure that all the dead leaves and debris are collected into a simple container. In short, you'll get your tasks finished a lot quicker.

Watch Your Health
The truth is that all of this work can lead to a number of muscle and back pains, due to constantly bending down and moving around. So, if you're not in the best physical shape for gardening, a leaf vacuum will probably be a saving grace.

First is the push lawn sweepers and the other one is the tow lawn sweepers. The push lawn sweeper, as the name implies, works when the user pushes it and moves it around the area. The push lawn sweeper uses brushes that roll when you push the said equipment and eventually collects leaves and dirt and transfers them to the bag attached to its rear.

It's like a vacuum cleaner but instead of floors, you are cleaning your lawn. The tow lawn sweeper, on the other hand, is attached to either a lawn mower or a lawn tractor. It works almost the same as the push-type lawn sweeper.

Push Lawn Vacuum

Push Lawn Sweepers Save Time

Executive Summary By Geoff Redding

Using a push lawn sweeper clean up your yard can save you an incredible amount of time. While the rake is a tool that will never leave my shed, I've added a yard sweeper to cut down on the time I spend picking up leaves.

Operating a lawn sweeper is as easy as walking back and forth on your yard pushing the tool. Lawn sweepers are very light, some push sweeper models weigh under 16 pounds.

You could use a leaf vacuum. These operate much like the yard sweeper, but they use suction to gather in the leaves. Leaf blowers basically push the leaves out of the way by using forced air. Sweeping up the yard has never been easier.


Push Lawn Sweeper Comparison - What is Good and What is Not
Executive Summary By Thomas Johnsen
Lawn vacuums, lawn sweepers, leaf blowers and rakes. These are the common tools used to clean your yard and sweep off dead leaves and dirt in your lawn. For instance, you can study the pros and cons of a certain gardening tool, say, the push lawn sweeper. For one, push lawn sweepers are really light and easy to use. All you have to do is push the said equipment and move around your lawn, much like what you do with push lawn mowers.

Also, one good thing about these lawn sweepers is their silent yet effective process. Moreover, the performance of push lawn sweepers is affected by the characteristics of the yard itself, if it's mostly a flat surface or full of bumps here and there.

It is known that lawn sweepers work best in a somewhat leveled field. If you're planning to check out push lawn sweepers, you might as well include the tow behind lawn sweepers in your list. These are tools that are usually attached to a riding lawn mower or lawn tractor. They work the same way with the push-type ones. However, the tow behind-type is intended for larger areas or lawns.

Roots Blower

Roots Supercharger is One of the Oldest Vacuum Pumps
Executive Summary By Ryan Coisson

In the eighteen sixties a vacuum pump was created by Philander and Francis Marion Roots. The roots supercharges is one of the oldest vacuum pumps for cars.

Superchargers basically supply more air to the engine. A roots supercharges is really nothing more than an air blower. The supercharger has messing lobes that spin and trap air in-between. The roots supercharger is not considered very efficient. Many muscle car owners like the supercharger because it sticks out of the hood and represents classic older style muscle cars.

A vacuum system specialist will be able to repair any vacuum pump, including superchargers.
A supercharger is great way to add power and performance to your car.

All About Superchargers
Executive Summary By Brent Harris

A supercharger, which is also known as a blower, is a mechanical device that is mechanically driven by belt, gear, or chain-drive of the engine's crankshaft. Today you get two types of superchargers; positive displacement devices that are blowers in the true sense of the word and are installed on top of the engine cover, and the more modern centrifugal devices that is more of a mechanically driven turbocharger that compresses air rather than just blowing air.

The classic positive displacement blower falls into two types: the Roots type and the Lysholm or twin screw. The two lobes do not overlap completely, leaving a small air pocket between them, which become gradually smaller as the air pocket moves through the device, the result in air compression and an increase in air pressure.

Unlike the lobes in a Roots supercharger, the lobes in twin-screw superchargers are manufactured to a high precision to ensure that internal leakage does not occur. Like turbochargers, centrifugal superchargers have a narrowing circular scroll through which air is forced to create internal boost pressure.

Lawn Aeration

Tips on Using a Lawn Aerator to Keep Your Lawn Looking Vibrant and Healthy
Executive Summary By Mick Day

The one piece of gardening equipment you should consider to keep in your garden shed is a lawn aerator, by using a lawn aerator you will keep your lawn looking vibrant and healthy.
This stops the air and water getting through to the root system which is vital to provide healthy looking grass, this is when you need a lawn aerator to relieve the compaction so that air and water will get to the root base.

When using a lawn aerator you will remove small round cores from your lawn, this leaves holes in your lawn, which air and water will penetrate to provide the nutrients your grass needs to grow healthy.

For you to get the maximum benefit from lawn aeration you should make sure the lawn is slightly damp before starting, this allows the aerator to penetrate to the required depth and gives the best results for a healthy looking lawn.


Rolling Lawn Aerators - Making Light Work of Lawn Aeration
Executive Summary By Al Smitty

Lawn aeration addresses these problems by loosening this compacted layer and allowing oxygen, water and nutrient access to the top layer. Aerators of all types work on the same basic principle of driving spikes or tines into the top layer of the lawn at regular intervals.

One of the best options for most residential property lawns is the rolling lawn aerator.
As the aerator moves across the lawn, the drum presses the spikes into the lawn and pulls them out again through the circular axis that the drum travels on. This effectively cuts a groove into the lawn and loosens the compacted soil.

There are two basic types of lawn aerators. These are spike and core aerators. Many lawn professionals are of the opinion that core aerators do a better job than spike models and that normal spike aerators may even exacerbate compaction problems.
Lawns should be aerated either in the fall or the spring depending on what type of grass the lawn is made up of.

Rotary Lawn Mowers

Rotary Lawn Mower

Rotary Lawn Mowers - The Early Days
Executive Summary By Steven Blades

The first lawn mower was invented in 1827. Early lawn mowers of the time were push mowers that required the owner to guide the lawn mower across their lawns, as the turning wheels would also turn a series of blades that systematically trimmed the grass on the home owner's lawn.

However, as time went on the lawn mower continued to evolve. In 1859, a man named Thomas Green invented the first mechanized lawn mower, which ran on a chain. Taking this idea a step further, Elwood McGuire of Richmond, Indiana designed and patented the first "modern" push mower.

The tragedy of Stacy's idea is that, had he replaced the saw blade with standard rotary blades, he would have truly invented the modern lawn mower that you and I use today.

Lawn Vacuums

Lawn Vacuums

Executive Summary by Jim Kesel

Lawn Vacuums are specialized yard maintenance equipment. They are designed specifically to remove
leaves and litter from yards and lawns. Many riding lawn mowers can be converted to work as lawn vacuums. Lawn vacuums in conjunction with a lawn mower will facilitate this effort by chopping the mulch material as it is picked up thereby accelerating the mulch processes.

Lawn vacuums basically come in different forms. The most common lawn vacuums are built as a trailer that is pulled behind a lawn tractor. As the lawn tractor cuts the lawn or leaves up they are blown back to the vacuums blower then into the lawn vacuums trailer.

Lawn vacuums models also include walk behind models that have a suction chute located at the front of it. Most lawn vacuums are designed to automatically deposit yard debris into paper or plastic bags for easy curbside pickup. Many newly designed walk behind lawn vacuums neatly fold up for storage after use.

Types of Lawn Vacuums

Executive Summary By Rob Akerost

If you have a large lawn, or even a small yard and hate raking leaves, sticks and other debris, then maybe you should think about a yard vacuum. There's basically three different types of lawn or yard vacuums; carry, push, or tow. The price range increases respectively with the carry models being the cheapest.

The carry types of vacuums are basically leaf blowers that, besides blowing, can vacuum or suck up leaves into some type of attachment such as a canvas bag. Most push type vacuums look basically just like a big push lawn mower with a scoop or hood that acts as a vacuum nozzle. What's really nice about stepping up to one of these models is the bags are larger, thus hold more leaves. Plus, you get the added features that comes with larger gas motors such as (possible) chipper shredder and expansion hose or attachments that allows you to get to hard to reach places. The push vacuums get a little more expensive and run on average over $500.
