SCH Leaf Collector Machine
The SCH Leaf Collector range offers an efficient solution for clearing, collecting, and mulching leaves, and preparing them for composting.
Easily towed by suitable vehicles like ATVs, ride-on mowers, and compact tractors, these versatile trailer-mounted units gather significant leaf quantities, drawing them up and chopping them with the fan. This process results in smaller pieces deposited into the trailer, enhancing capacity and reducing emptying frequency.
Choose from various models within the range to meet specific needs and purposes.
Considerations for Leaf Clearing Machines
Terrain Conditions:
For smooth grassland, a sweeper collector provides a quicker solution for clearing larger open areas. In uneven and undulating terrain, a sweeper may miss some leaves and debris, making a vacuum solution more suitable.
Commercial Usage:
The SCH leaf collector range is suitable for private and commercial applications, effective on various surfaces such as tarmac, concrete, grass, and lawns.
Ideal for maintaining lawn areas in top condition throughout all weather and seasons.

TS98 Leaf Collector Machine
Constructed for durability, this leaf sweeper is built to withstand prolonged and heavy use. Its brushes feature a differential mechanism, ensuring smooth maneouvring in tight corners without causing wheel damage.
The sweeping power is further boosted by the differential mechanism, allowing both ground wheels to drive the pickup brushes. Adjusting the machines’s height is simple and requires minimal effort.
The main drive, transmitted through durable metal gears, ensures longevity. The collector, crafted from rust-proof and robust plastic, is designed for user-friendly operation. When reversing into a tipping heap, only two wheels make contact with the lawn, streamlining the process. Additionally, this machine comes with a convenient collector’s sheet.
PSU-RS Trailer SCH Leaf Collector Machine
Adapted to function similarly to a tree surgeon’s shredder (hence the resemblance), this model distinguishes itself primarily through its motor and impeller. These components are engineered to generate robust suction, effectively diminishing the volume of collected leaves and debris as they pass through the fan. The reduced material is then ejected through the chute into an attached trailer.
The wander hose is 8 inches (200mm) in diameter and 3 meters in length for bulk leaf clearance.
NB: You will need a 50mm or drop pin fitting (either fixed or removeable) mounting at the rear of the trailer.Â
So, the “train” is:
Towing vehicle >>> Trailer fitted with mesh sides (and ideally some form of cover) >>> PSU-RS.
PSU Leaf Collector Machine from SCH
The PSU model shares similarities with the PSU-RS, differing in that instead of an ejection chute, mulched debris is gathered through an ejection hose into an enclosed trailer. This process utilizes a specially adapted plate and cover, to fit the trailer, which we can supply or adapt before purchase.
Model TPSU
Named as the “T”PSU, this version represents another iteration of the well-received PSU (Professional Suction Unit).
Delivered as a comprehensive solution, the “T”PSU suction unit comes complete with a trailer, ready for immediate use.
The trailer features a tipping mechanism and offers two options:
- Self-tipping functionality with an onboard integral 12-volt battery and electric hydraulic pump.
- Power supply through a tractor’s hydraulic system, compatible with either a single or double spool valve setup.
Commercial Leaf Collector Vacuum TRCL
This commercial leaf vacuum efficiently gathers large amounts of leaves in a single fill, accelerating labor and reducing costs.
Towed by a ride-on lawnmower, this model connects a hose directly to the rear grass outlet. The powerful motorized fan unit, mounted at the front of the machine, suctions up green waste from the cutter deck of the ride-on and propels it into the collector trailer. The trailer, characterized by a low center of gravity, ensures exceptional stability even on uneven ground.
