- How much weight can it hold?
- The drum holds up to 550 lb of water or sand. More weight packs harder but makes the roller harder to tow and empty.
- Can I pull it with a riding mower?
- Yes. The steel tow bar and hitch pin fit most riding mowers and ATVs. Check that your hitch accepts a pin-style connection.
- Is it better than a steel roller?
- The poly drum will not rust or dent, which matters if you store it outside. Steel rollers are heavier empty but can pack harder with less fill.
- How do I fill and empty it?
- Fill through the large opening with a garden hose, and drain through the plug at the end. Draining is slow, so allow time before storage.
- What is it best used for?
- New sod, seeding, frost heaves and mole runs. It is less useful on steep slopes, where a full drum can pull a light mower.
- Where is the Agri-Fab Tow Poly Lawn Roller 48" cheapest?
- At Tractor Supply Co, for $449.99, as of our latest check.
