This is robust lawn sweeper in construction and will withstand prolonged heavy use. A differential mechanism on the brushes allows the sweeper to be manoeuvred in tight corners without the wheels "scuffing". The differential mechanism also allows both ground wheels to drive the pick up brushes giving it superior sweeping power.
The height adjustment is simple. The main drive is transmitted via metal gears. The large capacity solid plastic catcher is rot and tear proof and simple to use. Reversing into the tipping heap is always difficult but it is made easier with the TS98 as it only has two wheels in contact with the ground.A useful collection sheet is supplied with each unit.

Professional Leaf Suction Unit

Model - FGPSU
This large leaf suction unit is hungry to clear up large areas of fallen leaves. The PSU fan unit with its powerful 9HP Honda engine is mounted on a two wheel chassis with an integral tow bar.

The favourite way of using the unit is to attach it to the rear of the leaf collecting trailer. This trailer can be supplied with trailer adaptation kit, you could modify your own trailer, or SCH will collect it and modify it for you. The discharge hose is attached to the rear of the trailer. The operator thus is able to suck up fallen leaves efficiently. A combined team of the suction hose operator and a tractor driver can clear along drives and road edges at very impressive speeds.

The leaves passing through the fan are chopped up, greatly increasing the capacity of the trailer - meaning less empties per day. Many operator use this in conjunction with a hand held blower. Blow out leaves from flower beds and awkward areas and then collect them with the suction unit. The fan belt is driven and not fitted directly onto the crankshaft of the engine.

Large Capacity Trailed Collector

Model - FGTRCL
This large capacity trailer has been developed by SCH to tow behind tractors an is described as 'twin cut'. Tractors have a centre rear discharge, blowing the cut grass/leaves into a limited size collection hopper. Frequent emptying is extremely time-consuming and frustrating.

The TRCL greatly increases the collecting capacity and therefore larger areas are collected in one fill, making it a quick and saving cost labour. The powerful motorised fan unit mounted on the front of the TRCL sucks up the green waste from the cutter deck and propels it into the trailer. The trailer has a low centre of gravity, which makes it extremely stable on hilly ground.

A deflector plate on the discharge shoot is adjustable for even loading of different kinds of material. The trailer having a low centre of gravity is not able to be tipped for emptying, however a web strap anchored at one end, when pulled, removes most of the waste from the TRCL via a large rear hinged tail gate. Wide profile pneumatic wheels greatly reduce wheel markings on soft ground. The TRCL can also be used on level tarmac and gravel surfaces. Side discharge cutter decks can be fitted with a 'boot' to accept the collection hose.

Hard Surface Towed Sweeper

Model - FGHST98
This sweeper benefits from a sprung floor, to allow the sand to flow back through the base of the hopper and at the same time collecting debris such as leaves and twigs.

Both wheels drive the pick up brushes giving excellent sweeping power.
The main drive is transmitted via metal gears. A cover plate is supplied with each machine, to cover the mesh floor in sweeping operations where all debris is required to be collected. (Please see pictures).
