LBV 6900 M-ABR overview

The LBV 6900 M-ABR is a compact, lightweight, yet durable tractor-mounted leaf blower, powered mechanically by the PTO. Since the leaf blower operates directly from the PTO, there are no concerns about hydraulic flow or volume. Weighing just 85 kg, it delivers an impressive airflow of up to 140 m²/min, making it highly effective at clearing wet, compacted, and sticky leaves from both hard and soft surfaces.
