What Is a Tow Behind Lawn Sweeper？
One type of cleaning tool that is towed behind tractors and other vehicles is the tow-behind lawn sweeper. Its purpose is to maintain a neat lawn by removing fallen leaves and other debris. Greater coverage can be achieved with a tow-behind lawn sweeper than with a push model. Large-scale farmers or those with extensive lawns should use a tow-behind lawn sweeper.
Basic Functions and Uses of Tow Behind Lawn Sweepers
The main function of a tow-behind lawn sweeper is to sweep the debris on the lawn into the hopper through a rotating brush. It can clean up fallen leaves, grass clippings, small branches, etc. to keep the lawn beautiful. Tow-behind lawn sweepers are widely used in farms, large gardens, parks, and other places.
How Does a Tow Behind Lawn Sweeper Work?
The working principle of a tow-behind lawn sweeper is relatively simple. It consists of a drum with rotating brushes and a large-capacity hopper. When the tractor or other towing vehicle moves forward, the brushes on the drum start to rotate and sweep the debris on the ground into the hopper. The specific working process is as follows:
Towing and Moving Forward
Attach the lawn sweeper to the tractor or other towing vehicle, start the vehicle, and move forward.
Rotating Brushes Start Working
As the vehicle moves forward, the brush drum of the tow behind the lawn sweeper starts to rotate and sweeps up the debris on the ground.
Collecting Debris
The rotating brush sweeps the debris into the large-capacity hopper at the rear. The hopper can store a large amount of debris, reducing the number of times the farmer frequently dumps the hopper.
Dumping Debris
When the hopper is full, dump the debris in the hopper to a designated stacking location. The farmer can then use the tow behind the lawn sweeper again.
