Just Shred and Spread For a Beautiful Yard
Transform your yard into a showplace, without all the sweat and
strain. With the help of its extra-large, 21-inch-diameter
funnel, the Leaf-Eater effortlessly reduces wet or dry yard
waste--including rain-soaked leaves and grass clippings--into
ent-rich mulch or compost that you can reuse right in your
flowerbeds or vegetable garden. With this efficient tool,
creating a great yard is as simple as shredding and spreading!
Two-Step Process Shreds and Mulches
This system utilizes a two-step process that shreds and then
mulches for fast cleanup and maximum waste reduction. Simply feed
double handfuls of material into the hopper and watch the
Leaf-Eater do all the work.
Patented Design and Powerful Motor Shred Debris Fast
Thanks to its patented design, double heavy-duty cutting lines,
and powerful universal motor with circuit breaker and reset
button for overload protection, the Leaf-Eater shreds wet or dry
leaves, thatch, grass clippings, pine needles, and even paper as
fast as you can load them.
Use the elastic bungee cord to hold your leaf bag in place, or
place the Leaf-Eater atop your t container (with a leaf bag
inside) for mess-free disposal. Additionally, the Leaf-Eater's
adjustable pressure knobs allow positioning of the hopper to any
angle for easier loading; the hopper also rotates 180 degrees for
compact storage.
Range of Shredding Adjustments for Flexibility
The Leaf-Eater offers the convenience of a range of shredding
adjustments from coarse to fine--up to 30:1 particle
size-reduction. A sliding control lever that’s easy to read
allows you to choose the right setting for the job.
Lightweight Design and Built-In Carrying Handles for Easy
Portability
Lightweight at just 17 pounds, the Leaf-Eater features a rugged,
high-density polyethylene funnel and housing, as well as steel
leg construction for long life and easy maintenance. And for true
portability, built-in carrying handles allow this unit to go
where you go.
Quick and Easy Assembly Right Out of the Box
Out of the box, the Leaf-Eater is a snap to put together in
minutes; you'll only need a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
Maintenance is equally effortless thanks to the removable motor
intake filter--just remove and clean periodically. The Leaf-Eater
also features a convenient built-in storage compartment to hold
replacement cutting lines, gloves, and safety glasses.

The LE-900 Leaf-Eater measures 19.5 x 19.5 x 23.0 inches (WxHxD)
