I used to rake about 1.5 acres each year. Mature trees - maples, oaks, birch, poplar etc. so I literally hauled about a ton a year by dragging them across the yard on a tarp to the compost pile. Hard on the knees, shoulders, back, you name it. Last fall I purchased a Brinly Poly-Vac system for behing my rider. Boy what a difference! All chopped up and ready to rot. The only walking I do is to blow leaves away from around tight spots (trailer type). I wanted a cyclone but they are more costly due to bonus features and I don't have $$ for bonus features. Cyclone is mounted with swivel wheels and has neat features like self-unloading (actually you reverse the process and suck the mulch out of the hopper and blow it where you want it). They use a molded polymer impeller insted of a weldment which takes quite a beating (which, by the way, they will NOT sell seperately unless you own a Cyclone already), I just make sure I know that everything big is picked up. The collapsing feature might be necessary for some but if I take my hitch off and the 8" suction tube I only need about 45" X 60" of storage space. Cyclone is about $1300 and the Brinly was $800 so I settled. All in all I have never had this much fun cleaning the yard in fall or spring!

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
