Description
The PILOT 200 model gives you all the amazing suction power you'll find on our larger models with a simplified collector and unloading mechanism. The underlying frame can also be used as a flatbed trailer (rather than the cart-style trailer found on the other models).
The 200-gallon collector can be fully unloaded in two easy steps: 1) simply unbuckle the closures on the back, and 2) release the lock lever from the front and tilt the entire collector to the rear. The steep dump angle ensures that the load empties completely.
With the collector removed, you can use the PILOT 200 as a flatbed trailer to haul all sorts of loads around your property. It's perfect for stackable and tie-down items.
Features
- All Steel Impeller: More durable than the plastic impellers used on competitive products. Our impeller is covered with a LIFETIME WARRANTY.
- Accessories Add Versatility: Our Vacuum Hose lets you get at yard waste in places you can't drive your mower. And the Mulch Discharger allows you to broadcast all that debris right where you want it.
- Optimal 8" Hose: Our 8" hoses offer the ideal balance—narrower hoses clog too frequently, and wider ones lose compression and suction power. We tested extensively and found 8" to be the optimal diameter.
- Modular Design: Our collector top removes and folds up, and the engine rolls away on its own built-in trolley. The result: simple, space-efficient storage and year-round versatility.
- Assembled in the USA: Assembled in the USA using foreign and domestic parts. Ships direct from our Wisconsin factory.
- Reduce a Mountain of Leaves: Our Shark-Teeth Impeller, in combination with the action of your lawn mowing blade, reduces your leaves to a fine mulch during collection. The result is rich, organic material that you can return to your garden or compost heap.
- Flatbed Utility Trailer: With the upper collector and power unit detached, the PILOT's underlying flatbed makes a great, 400-pound capacity trailer. Pin hitch it to your riding mower (or ATV) and use it for all kinds of hauling chores. It's perfect for transporting stackable or tie-down items.
- Huge Capacity: The PILOT model holds up to 27 cubic feet (200 gallons). The high-speed impeller reduces the volume of leaves to a fraction of their original bulk. So you'll be able to collect huge amounts of leaves and debris before you have to stop and unload.
- Big Wheels...Easy Rolling! Our 14" diameter wheels are bigger than competitive products and create a smoother roll. You can convert to dual wheel setup with our Wheel Upgrade Kit.
- Trailer Jack Stand: Heavy-duty Trailer Jack Stand, for moving the machine easily when not in use. Adapts to pin hitch heights of 8" to 15". Stand lifts out of the way during operation. 4" diameter wheel. (Optional accessory).
- Collector Closures: The PILOT's collector is closed by oversized buckles that are easy to grasp, even with gloves on. The collector's vertical "doors" can be held open by rebuckling them to the sides.
