who uses power brooms for cleanup

[MOE]

Does anyone use the rubber paddle power brooms that look like a weed eater? How well do they work? I'm thinking of getting one for stump grinding cleanup and to get gravel out of my lawn from the snow plow. Thanks

Excellent choice for stump grindings. It seems alittle slow at first but there is a technique to it. Works great on wet driveways.

What brand do you use? How would it work on getting granite chips out of grass,( I got a little carried away plowing snow this winter)?

I use a stihl. It sweeps everything in its path. It will take out some grass if you are not careful. Like I said it has a slight learning curve.

Rubber Paddle

Hello Moe
I t have been thinking of one of those as an addition to my Kombi 90 tools.Am i thinking of the same thing here,because I don't get you when you say it works like a weed eater.

I guess I think they look like a weed eater because they have the same type of power head and you hold them similar. Beyond that, they are totally different.

Do you use the rubber paddle wheel or a bristle wheel? I found a used echo pas-260 with a bristle wheel.
