Default Tow-able Leaf Blower

Each fall I have the chore of preparing one of my customer’s lane ways for winter. This involves clearing off all the leaves, spreading gravel, stone and ground asphalt followed by compacting with my vibratory roller. To help with this I recently picked up one of these blowers from Little Wonder. With the Honda GX270, this thing can really clear a path!

After all the fun the 1650 has been having with the leaf vac I thought that I’d get the 1450 out for some action too. So, I built this simple tongue.

Originally I was going to paint it white, but as I had a can of this appliance paint laying around I decided to go with it. Black it is!

Don't think the blue goop will seal that tire. Bet it made a big boom. Been there with an old tire. Shiny black looks good.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
