It is easier than raking!  There really is nothing to it though, once assembled just hook it up to your lawn and away you go. It works very well picking up the clippings and makes the lawn look extremely nice. There is also a lever on the sweeper so you can adjust the height of the brushes. You can also move along fairly fast with the sweeper.

This new MH-4451 lawn sweeper quickly and quietly picks up leaves from your lawn, driveway or paths with a 45" swath. Dumping is a piece of cake since you can tip the basket up from your tractor seat dropping the clippings in a neat pile.  You’ll never break a sweat and your yard will be relatively leaf free in no time.

DID YOU KNOW? Leaves covering the grass block the sunlight needed to grow. If a pile of wet leaves sits for a few days on a lawn, you'll find the grass underneath it becomes discolored or damaged. Rake leaves when they're dry. Wet leaves are heavier, harder to rake, and more slippery. They also breed mold and mildew, which can make raking unpleasant for allergy sufferers.
