Purpose and use
Grass collectors are designed to collect grass, leaves or similar cut material when used in con-
junction with a tractor and a rotary mower or leaf suction device (accessory for grass collectors).
It can be used at any weather that permits the collecting of cut material. Depending on the trac-
tor type, the applications range is from cultivated grass to matted grass and wasteland.
The machines for grass collection with bottom discharge and grass collectors with top discharge
are compact units for vacuuming and collecting cut material.
The turbine is driven by the rear power take-off shaft located at the rear of the tractor. Its task is
to collect the cut material from the rotary mower over a suction line and to deliver the material
over a pressure line to the bin.
To discharge the cut material, the bin of the machines can be opened and closed by means of
the tractor's hydraulic system.
To discharge the collected material, the bin of top discharge machines can be lifted by means of
the tractor's hydraulic system. The bin can be opened, emptied, and closed at any height, from
down to up position, using the same hydraulic system.
In all machines, the grass collector can be operated from the driver's seat
