Technical Overview
DR Leaf Vac Promax 450 – 11.7 HP Electric-Start Tow-Behind Yard Vacuum The DR Leaf Vac Promax 450 is a heavy-duty tow-behind vacuum designed for large-scale leaf, grass clipping, pine needle, and general yard debris cleanup — perfect for large lawns, estates, farms, parks, or any property with extensive landscaping and tree cover. With its large-capacity collection system and powerful engine, this machine offers professional-grade performance in a trailer-style vacuum unit. 🔧 Core Features & Performance Engine & Power : Equipped with a 389 cc / 11.7 HP DR OHV engine , the Promax 450 uses a reliable electric-start system (with recoil backup), providing the high torque needed for strong vacuum suction and consistent performance under load. Massive Collection Capacity : The vacuum unit features a 450-gallon (≈ 60 cubic feet) hopper — among the largest capacities in non-commercial residential vacuums. This means you can collect large amounts of leaves, clippings, and yard debris in one go, reducing the frequency of emptying. Heavy-Duty Frame & Trailer Design : Built on a sturdy welded steel frame, the unit mounts to your lawn tractor or ATV via a single-point hitch . Dual pneumatic wheels ensure smooth towing and stable movement across lawns, driveways, and uneven terrain. Efficient Debris Handling & Dumping : After collection, the hopper tilts back (dump angle around 60°) to empty its contents — the dump operation is simple and designed to offload large volumes at once. Once emptied, the platform can double as a flatbed cart for hauling other materials around the property. Robust Impeller & Vacuum Hose System : A heavy-duty metal impeller combined with a large-diameter hose ensures strong suction and helps to shred or compress debris, making efficient use of hopper
