FT-600 Leaf Trailer 8,640.00 (excl. tax)

FT-600 Leaf Trailer

8,640.00 (excl. tax)

A compact leaf vacuum trailer for compact tractors, compact loaders, utility vehicles and larger zero-turn or ride-on mowers. 600 kg capacity and the smallest footprint in the range, reaching paths, borders and planted areas larger machines cannot.

Now equipped with the Foresteel G2 debris loader: Vanguard™ commercial engine, Hardox® impeller and replaceable Hardox® wear liner, and an integrated shredder that cuts debris volume to roughly a tenth. The G2 also brought a significant improvement to handheld work: the articulated hose support arm carries the hose weight so the operator only guides the nozzle. Less fatigue, longer productive shifts, and standard on every leaf trailer.

Rear tipping. Built for property-internal and off-road use, without EU CoC certification. If you need to tow on public roads, the FT-1600 and FT-2200 T3 are available in road-legal versions.

When the season ends, the vacuum unit and mesh extensions come off in under 30 minutes and the FT-600 becomes a hydraulic tipping trailer for the rest of the year.

Foresteel Leaf Trailer with the unique and original Underframe Suction Unit option can save you time and minimizes manual labour. Works in combination with Foresteel MIDvac and PROvac versions, great best in dry, but also in slightly wet conditions. The unit is brushless and works best if leaves are collected relatively soon after dropping to the ground, before grass grows through and limits the pick-up efficiency.
