(ET) Leaf mover !!



    Now that Fall is here, it's time to start thinking about moving some 
leaves......
Attached are 3 photos:
1.  American Fan  AF-12  impeller shown with the outer half of the housing 
removed.
2. Blower assembly mounted to a 5HP ICE on the front of my E-15
    (used a salvaged snowblower mount to bolt the ICE/blower to)
3. Ariens 6HP snowblower tractor with snowblower removed and a vacuum 
attachment rotated to be a blower.
    (it also has the same AF-12 impeller)

  If you can find a blower, use an impeller that is cast with straight 
blades and not squirrel cage style....it works great (and it is loud!).  
By using the lift, I can raise/lower the blower to change the angle.
No more raking!  When the leaves get too high, I plow them into the woods.

Hello Walter,
Any chance that we can get a picture of your blower?
