The GeoTech Pro LV650 SPL Deluxe leaf vacuum - garden shredder is an easy-to-use and very versatile tool for cleaning large paved outdoor areas. In addition, the innovative suction tube function allows you to clean under hedges, behind pots and in all hard-to-reach areas. The suction hose is removable.

These machines, even if hand-pushed, are suitable for flat terrain or with very low slopes. They are therefore not suitable for working on hard slopes.

The wheeled leaf vacuum ensures great performance as long as it is used properly, in residential areas and in the following working conditions:

It is necessary to consider:

• Surfaces suitable for leaf vacuum use (well-kept lawn, asphalt, concrete or paved surfaces and surfaces with non-dusty debris)
• Surfaces NOT suitable for leaf vacuum use (rough terrain, unkempt grass, wet surfaces, wooded areas)

First of all, the surfaces must be well levelled and well-kept:

• Gardens with mown and well-kept lawn
• Asphalted or concrete surfaces used for parking, courtyard, etc ...
• Sidewalks as long as they are free of disconnections, barriers and steps
• Surfaces and squares with debris/stones only if not dusty

Surfaces not suitable for using a leaf vacuum:

• Agricultural soils
• Wild land with wild and untended grasses
• Thickets or other areas with a dense layer of settled undergrowth

Intended use:

• On recently fallen dry leaves (not stuck to the ground because of moisture and decomposition cycle due to long standing)
• No damp leaves or leaves that have settled on the ground for a long time
• No steep areas
• No piles of leaves, no undergrowth
• No pine needles or other needle-like plants

SPEED:

• In case of large quantity of leaves, use the slowest forward speed

The GeoTech Pro leaf vacuum - garden shredder is powered by a 196 cc Loncin 4-stroke OHV air-cooled engine equipped with aluminium cylinder.

It develops a maximum power of 6.5 Hp (4.1 kW) at 3600 rpm.

Traditional vacuum system through the 76 cm front opening: with this operating mode, the flow-diverting knob must be set to the high position.

The suction opening is adjustable in 5 different positions, from 0.5 to 3 cm away from the ground in order to guarantee optimal performance with respect to the ground and the material.

The opening can be adjusted by means of proper levers on the side of the machine.

Among the few self-propelled leaf vacuum machines on the market also featuring the shredding mode of the material collected. Thus it doesn’t simply collect but also shreds finely and then deposits the material in the rear collector.

Shredding is performed by a special high-strength steel disc with 6 steel blades. Shredding ratio: 7/1

Shredding the leaves collected guarantees many advantages:

• It reduces the volume of collected material by up to 4 times and allows the 120L collector volume to provide a far greater material capacity than standard.
• Easier emptying of the collector.
• Less material to be disposed of.
• Shredded material suitable for composting and for recovery as fertiliser.

Traditional vacuum system through the hose extendable up to 3 m: with this operating mode, the flow-diverting knob must be set to the low position.

The suction hose function allows you to clean of leaves under hedges, behind pots and in all hard-to-reach areas. Ideal for reaching tight corners, borders and flower beds. Equipped for this purpose with a long ergonomic steel handle. All the suction power of the machine is concentrated on the inlet nozzle of the hose, ensuring it great suction power.

The suction hose is made of a reinforced metal spiral, specially designed for suction and transport operations.

It can be extended and folded very quickly, reducing bulk when not in use.

The hose can be easily extended up to a max. of 3 m when needed thanks to the handle on which it is fixed.

The shredding mode allows shredding and crushing wood plant waste.

Maximum cutting diameter for shredding mode: 50 mm

Shredding is performed by means of:

• 2 front blades: placed at the shredding chute opening, it is mounted on a rotating steel disc at the end of the hopper. They pre-shred the wood into the hopper reducing it in coarse wood chips.
• 3 rear blades rotating at high speed (placed behind the 2 blades). They further shred the wood residues.
