Steiner 430 max
I have a Steiner Max 430 tractor with a MX640 mower deck. I want to add a vaccum to the mower deck. These are my thoughts.
1. there is a heavy roller that is the last working accessory on the mower deck. It will have to be removed from the mower deck to provide space for a collection/suction housing.
2. In the center I will have to figure out how to attach a suction housing to the center of the mower deck.
3. The vaccum hose will ride directly under the center of the tractor to the vaccum motor.
4. The vaccum motor will ride on a frame that attaches to the tractor, thereby never changing the angel of the hose under the tractor when turning. Perhaps this is a 3pt. hitch.
5. the vaccum motor will then blow the clippings and leaves into a trailer that is attached to the vaccum motor frame.

Is there anyone in TBN that can give me a critic of this plan?

Thank You,
