Designed exclusively for the front-runner mowers, the Model 865 Trac Vac is one of twenty powerful lawn vacuums offered by Midwest Equipment Mfg. to do an efficient job of picking up grass clippings, leaves and light litter. The FX230 Champ engine unit is attached directly to your machine at the side and behind the operator. The power unit attaches with a 2" Reese hitch type hookup for ease and speed in removing the vacuum from the tractor. The eighteen cubic foot cart, tapered to facilitate dumping and custom designed cart cover expands collection capacity to approximately 50 cubic feet. The cover is manufactured from 20-gauge powder coated steel, providing for years of rust-free service. The cover also features a one-piece tailgate for ease of dumping. The Model 865 Trac Vac is powered with a long life 9HP Champ engine. The six-bladed forward curve turbine places noise level at a pleasing decibel rating while reducing leaves and clippings for better compaction in the collection container. Homeowners and commercial users agree the Model 865 Trac Vac is the right combination of horse power and matching capacity that makes the Model 865 a most efficient piece of lawn maintenance equipment. The fast attaching discharge chute is custom fit to each individual mower deck.
