Our take on the John Deere 42″ Tow-Behind Lawn Sweeper

The John Deere 42 in. Tow-Behind Lawn Sweeper is a pull-behind sweeper with six 11-inch brushes and a 24 cu. ft. hamper. It picks up leaves and grass clippings in one pass and dumps from the tractor seat with a T-handle cord. Adjustable brush height covers short grass up to deep leaf cover, and the patented frame folds to hang or stand upright for storage. It fits any mower, garden tractor or zero-turn with a rear hitch, so it works with brands other than John Deere. Against basic two-brush sweepers it covers a wider path and holds more debris, but it is a towed unit, not a powered blower or vacuum.

Questions and answers

Does it fit my mower?
It uses a universal rear hitch, so it tows behind any lawn mower, garden tractor or zero-turn that has one. Check that your hitch pin size matches the sweeper's clevis.
How does it handle wet leaves?
Less well than dry ones. Wet, matted leaves clump and slip past the brushes, so sweep after they dry when you can.
How do I empty the hamper?
Pull the T-handle dump cord from the tractor seat and the hamper tips to release the debris. No need to dismount.
Can it sweep grass clippings as well as leaves?
Yes. Adjust the brush height down for short clippings and up for deep leaf cover.
How much does it hold?
The hamper is 24 cu. ft., enough for a large leaf drop before you need to dump it.
Does it need assembly?
Yes, it ships partly assembled. The hitch, brushes and hamper frame go together with common hand tools.
