Found this neat little Lawn sweeper today. It came home with me. I played with it a little bit, they actually work quite well picking up leaves and gumballs. sorry it came out sideways

building and property sold, not sure on price i think low 200s the 1920 was in poor shape, the deck was rusted through on half of it. did not run. I quit bidding at $60 and it brought $70. im kicking myself for not going more, but it was at the end of the auction and i had spent too much already

| With the rope routed correctly you can dump that from the seat. If I remember correctly the rope goes through the lower eyelet on the frame, then through the flat strap hanging down from the right hinge point, then fastens to the latch. When rope is pulled it unhooks the latch and basket flips over backwards. Rather a hard pull when filled with grass. |

I have one of these but not an AC. Mine was made by Ohio Steel Mfg and I bought it at Tractor Supply quite a few years ago. After several years, the basket floor fell apart so I looked for their web site and called them. They sent me a new basket for a reasonable price. I was very impressed. Here is something made in the USA with great customer service. Bob@allisdowneast ------------- I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not sure. |
