Thanks Tim and others! I bought a power sweep today and after 5 minutes of use I was out of breath. I'm 64 years old with heart issues and didn't know what to do. My wife suggested returning it, but I knew that wasn't an option after having used it. Loosened the two bolts on the coupler and rotated 180, went back out and ran it for over an hour pulling this time instead of pushing. I use the kombi 2 stroke 94r and set the throttle to a bit less than half. Works great. Thanks to all who mention the 180 truck

I hope people realize that the power sweeper heads alone are really HEAVY and the wheel kit is strongly recommended. Price wise they are not cheap. But my back and body at my age “61” are not what they use to be. Thanks again for showing another great product.

The easier way to go backwards is to rotate the bottom part (gearbox and such) 180. Then you don’t have to have the handle upside down. I just got the wheels and love them with the power sweep. It is so much easier and quicker. I have the angle wheels on order and I think that will also be a good speed up.

I’m waiting for my wheels to arrive today. Perry is now out of stock until 4-12-21. I snowblow, and have gravel, so rocks and sand get much further onto the lawn, and the reverse rotation will clog long before I make it back to the driveway. After watching this I’m glad I also have a tractor broom on the way. The wheels will still be very handy for edging, and small jobs.

Great demo. I know that there is a lot of lawn mowers on KZfaq that has demoed the battery power trimmers and saws. Most of us (old) home owners already are vested in gas powered tools. I knew several people that had over 100 feet of extension cords that was used to mow and trim their small yard. Dealing with those cords, shock factor, and the added expense was something that I never quite understood. The newer line of battery powered lawn tools is now so much better and is cost effective. Cost is some what higher, but the time saving makes it well worth the added cost. Time is money.......

Have the same issue when spring comes, crusher run from the town roads when the plows throws on to my yard and the legacy tractor with snowblower, throws the snowbanks at the end and in my driveway on the yard as well. So of course for me, there will always be stones. Raking in the spring, I would cringe so thank you! This is a great video! Shows me my options, though I'm still torn between brush and broom(paddle) but will definite purchase the wheels attachment as well!! Kudos to Katie!! FYI, love HAHA comment at the end LOL!!

I use the yard boss with the bristle brush attachment. I use it backwards, because you can't push it forward. It is all you can handle after an hour. I have a 600 foot driveway. I try to push the snow to one side so I only have one side to cleanup on the spring. It took me 6 hours to finish mine. I did both sides over 4 different days. Good luck with the rest. Better get it done before the grass starts to grow, because that's even worse to do. Thanks for the video, may look onto the wheel kit some day.

Tim, when using the power sweep pulling backward leave the power unit normal and down by the paddle unit you will find it is fastened to the shaft by two torq screws, loosen the screws and just rotate the gearbox 180 you don't even need to take it off of the shaft. I did get the wheel kit, in the instructions it tells about cutting a spacer that is between the gearbox and the shield to 2" my guess if you would cut a little more that will give you even more adjustment on the wheels or it did for me. When you talked about it in the earlier video it looked like a great idea I happen to love what a great idea and glad that you talked about it keep up the great work love your channel. Doug

Tim, you may be able to rotate the head on the Power Sweep so that the electric motor is in the normal position. I do like the Power Sweep as a de-thatcher though. A Power Sweep with a vacuum attachment would be an ideal setup. I find that when I till the garden, that it's easier to pull the tiller than it is to push. The power sweep and power brushes all work better on a tractor, front end loader or skid steer than they do hand propelled. Much easier on the back. Thanks for showing tool attachments that are out there, just not normally seen unless you know you have a need one but didn't know that a commercial product existed.

Hey Tim, I have a feeling you'll eventually upgrade to a JD Front Broom for the 1025r. I have a power broom with the rubber paddles from from Echo and works great but its a tremendous strain on the body especially doing side road ditches with 3 to 4ft incline. Fortunately I could flip mine over and pull it at times but trade off is you get rocks flung at you. after 2 spring seasons of that for 320ft of ditch to maintain plus outlying driveway areas, I put a 52" broom on my 455. With power angle its way nicer on the seat watching rocks leave your grass. Additionally you can de-thatch your entire lawn and customer's yards :) ROI is much faster with that option and save your back and joints.
@Harry-zz2oh
@Harry-zz2oh 3 жыл бұрын
Saving your back and joints is almost always worth it! One reason the power stuff was invented. My one grandad was a farmer for most of his working life but he retired the year I was born and his joints were pretty bad with arthritis and bursitis. My dad's father farmed his entire life and only quit when he was 90 since it was getting harder to run the old tractor's and harvest equipment.

Received my wheel kit and tried it out this week, it appeared to make the task much easier. The snowplow driver was exceptionally kind to me this year so I didn't really give them an apples to apples comparison of pushing the sweeper to its limits. To be clear, it is still not a fun chore but anything to ease the stress on my old body is money well spent.

Now my spinal cord has issues and part of the nerve bundle is damaged).

Great video, Tim, but if you want to eliminate this job completely, put a coat of 0-1 ¼" crushed stone on your driveway. It packs like cement.

Also for those of you who have purchased a kit all you need is 10 inch wheel for the pulling motion. The Echo, Shindaiwa,... kit on our site comes with the 10 inch wheels. Looks like I need a Stihl ordering option for the pulling motion!

Or maybe I messed up and missed a way to turn over the head. I’m not sure. Some commenters are saying that there is a way to turn the head over.

@@TractorTimewithTim They are correct. You can rotate the sweeper head 180 degrees. Loosen a few screens rotate and your ready to go. That is what requires SweeperWheels to put on bigger wheels because the shaft going into the transmission shifts from bottom to top.

The broom looks like a better job but more effort to use. The wheel kit is a winner. Looks like Kristy doesn't have to bend over as much to get rake to work properly

How's your back feel while you're bent over like that. For me being crouched over like that would be miserable after a while. But it still beats doing it by hand. Thanks for sharing Tim

All of this just makes me realize that sometimes it’s just worth paying for concrete. 😂 They have a big huge brush that you can mount to the front of a YouTV come up for the Polaris ranger anyway I’m sure you could get it for just about anything but it’s kind of like that bristle brush was but it’s a few feet wide, I think they call it a driveway brush. Having one mounted at an angle so you could just drive slowly along the side of the driveway and kick everything to one side would be pretty cool

Power Sweep with wheels look like it's better. Maybe larger diameter wheels would allow you to stand upright and not lean over. I am 6 ft 5 in and that leaning would hurt my lower back.

This is #8 crushed limestone. 3/4” with no dust. For the area near the shed, I bought 3/4” with dust. This packs easier. Makes a good base. I NEVER use the large stuff (2”+). Lots of folks use that for base...I hate those large rocks...they always seem to come to the top.

There should be two torx screws at the top of the gearbox where it meets the shaft under that black plastic guard. Loosen both screws pull the gear box down about 1/4-1/2 inch and rotate the gear box 180 degrees push it back up until t bottoms out and re tighten the screws. This should reverse the direction of the sweeper

The problem I've found with hidden rock is when mowing the blade will hit the rock and throw it. I don't want my dogs or a window hurt or damaged. Hidden rocks also damage the blades which means a real challenge to remove, sharpen, balance, and remount. At $24/blade I try not to need to replace them more than twice a year (I mow almost year round).

Do those attachments only go into the power head one way? My echo PAS can go in multiple angles I guess you could say. I have some Stihl equipment but not the one that has multiple attachments so Im not sure. I know my echo PAS can have the attachments go in at different angles to the power head. Well 90 degree angles anyway....
