Have a large yard, about an acre, with quite a few large hickory and oak trees. If I don't get the leaves up, they'll lay there all winter and kill the grass. I have a JD140 that I use with a leaf vacuum unit that has its own 5 hp engine and a fair sized dump cart. I've used it for the last several years and the outfit works pretty good for what it is, and it makes teriffic mulch, but there's just too many leaves over too large an area. It's slow, hard on the mower, creates a ton of dust, hard on the sinuses and I spend most of my time emptying the cart. I don't want to burn them with the chance of catching the neighbor's leaves on fire. I have a MF-135 but I haven't figured out any way to use it to make the job any easier. What are some you guys doing to manage your leaves? Thanks.
