Improved Billy Goats for this autumn

Improved Billy Goats for autumn

By Lance Bassett

The 2003 Autumn the range of Billy Goat outdoor vacuum sweepers and blowers is the best yet. Most models also now have optional 'on board' hose kits with no tools fixings so no more rushing back to the workshop for hoses and/or spanners.

The line starts with the Little Billy. A 20in (50cm) sweeping width and powered by a 4hp Briggs & Stratton Quattro engine makes this machine ideal for the domestic or occasional hire user with an area of perhaps half an acre to clear of debris such as leaves or pine cones and needles. An optional wander hose is available.

The larger commercial KD models all feature 12in (30cm) wheels and the 'on board' hose kit option. These heavy duty units have for many years been the first choice of the professional user for large area clearing of al types of garden debris and litter, even bottles are accepted.

The KD410 has a 27in (68cm) sweeping width and a 4hp Briggs & Stratton Quattro engine and a large 10 cu ft (282 litre) collection bag.

The LD511IC model had all the features of the KD410 but is powered by a 5hp IC Briggs & Stratton engine

A self propelled model is available in the shape of the KD512SP. This sturdy professional quality vacuum uses a 5hp Briggs & Stratton IC commercial grade engine. A simple but proven front wheel drive system really helps on slopes and uneven terrain. Again all the features of the previous machine are incorporated in this machine.

With the TKD512SP Billy Goat a 2in (5cm) chipper is built in for sticks and small tree limbs.

Billy Goat also offer a range of commercial blowers using new 'Quiet Blow' technology. This features a patented exhaust design that condenses and controls exhaust air into a tight pattern, providing the best air control and velocity at the industry's lowest noise levels. Robotically welded 12-gauge steel housing and engine base also means these blowers are designed to take heavy use, but horsepower for horsepower they are the lightest wheel blowers on the market. A 14 blade nylon fan reduces overall vibration and gyroscopic forces common with metal fans.

Briggs & Stratton and Honda engine options ranging from 5hp to 13hp, Quiet Blow blowers provide hurricane-force air speeds up to 180mph.
