Demonstrating its versatility, the Ventrac 4520 compact tractor has a couple of powerful blowers and brush attachment that are ideal for the landscaper, estate manager or contracting business.
The Ventrac KA160 Power Blower features a vertical shaft design that delivers powerful, yet quiet performance. The blower housing can be rotated 180 degrees in the horizontal axis allowing the operator to move debris in the desired direction without hindering operation. Two guide wheels maintain a consistent distance from the surface to maximise operational efficiency. This blower can be used to remove leaves, light snow, water and other debris.
The Ventrac ET200 Turbine blower makes quick work of any clean up job and is designed to move large volumes of air and is much quieter than conventional debris blowers. The powerful front discharge nozzle can be hydraulically rotated through 360 degrees from the operator’s seat and a front bumper protects the nozzle from damage. Power and control allows clean-up work to be done simply, quietly, and efficiently. The Ventrac Mount System allows the blowers to mounted and detached quickly and then move on to the next job. The ET200 can be used to blow leaves, light snow, and remove debris from paths, car parks and other areas.
Group course manager at The Club Company Chris Brook says,
“Considering the Ventrac tractor unit is less than 25hp, it is remarkably powerful and can go anywhere. The Turbine Blower attachment is excellent; unlike a lot of blowers that change the direction of the vortex through a vertical axis, in an up-and-over action, this works in a 180° horizontal axis, which enables more control over the direction of the material being dispersed. It’s great when blowing leaves from greens and, being out-front, visibility is second to none.”
Demonstrating the versatility of Ventrac, it’s possible to swap out the blowers and in less than a couple of minutes attached the HB580 Power Broom for sweeping operations. It can be hydraulically angled left or right and lifted up or down – all from the seat of the tractor. An electric actuator also allows the operator to adjust the speed and direction of the broom rotation, maximizing its effectiveness. A self-levelling feature keeps the broom horizontal at all times, and the nylon bristle broom cores can be changed in just a few minutes.
