Agri-Fab 44 in Tow-Behind Sweeper review

The largest sweeper here: 44 inches wide with a 28 cu ft flow-through bag, a dump handle at the seat and US assembly, for about $430.

Big capacity

At 28 cu ft, this holds more than double the 42-inch Agri-Fab. On a large lawn, it means fewer stops.

Build

It uses bronze bushings on the brush shaft and 12-by-3-inch tires, and Agri-Fab assembles it in Illinois.

Towing

Tow at the speed the manual gives, make turns wide, and stop the tractor and set the brake before you get off to clear the sweeper.

What this machine usually gets asked

What does a brush ratio do?

Agri-Fab’s 5.6:1 means the brushes turn 5.6 times per wheel turn. A higher ratio sweeps faster at a given speed.

Can I empty it from the seat?

Yes, the listing says it has a dump-from-seat handle.

The way we judge this lawn equipment

The live figure beside a product went and asked the shop for it the moment this page opened; any amount written into the text has not moved since the sentence was drafted, and it is the first of the two that counts.
