Cyclone rake was one of the best things I ever bought, I have quite a bit of land littered with trees, mainly oak. Now I just hook this to the back of the tractor and ride around, sucks up acorns,leaves and mulches them to a pulp. I dump the pulp a ways down back in different piles each season, after about year or so you end up with first class compost. I have the vacuum tube attachment that's allows me to suck up all the leaves around he edge of the house and the rock gardens.
It will suck up most things except sodden leaves, wet or damp leaves are fine, but really soggy leaves stick to the tube and plug it up.
The husqvarna as been no trouble, had that for years, always starts just done oil chanes on it every couple of years. Use it to cut crass, pull the cyclone rake, which by the way can get very heavy. It fills up with mulched leaves and holds a lot, the tractor pulls it no problem though hills, forest and mud. It as gotten stuck a couple of time more my fault and the path I drive but I have a winch on the ATV that pulls it out in real jams. Great product very very reliable.
But I have a problem, huge problem I'm a tech gadget freak, the more it does the more I want it. This raven look cool, it's a tractor/ATV, mower and generator, cue Bond theme.....
when they add the snow blower and plow I won't be able to resist....:gaah:
I would have made some body changes, should have made the front square and flat the top with a rack to haul stuff. I use my ATV a lot to move stuff around, my wife likes to grow her own vegetables and flowers so we do a bit of crop rotation I'm always hauling compost, pots to she'd and out back.
Don't get me started on the you tube video of the ATV/jet ski...
