- The front mounted rotary broom is used to remove and clean the pavement from snow.
The rotary broom is the ATV150P M-Sweep with a width of 150cm from Mulder.
The rotary broom is mounted on the front hitch and driven by the front PTO of a Kubota B2261 26hp Hydrostatic 4WD Compact Tractor.

Great tool. May I ask what was the price, and also what was the cost of adding the front mount / pto ? I have the same model (23HP). My brush is much smaller / does not have engouch force to clear snow like Yours, but's fed with the tractor hydraulic, not with PTO.
With the PTO there is more than enough power. I even put the throttle very low to reduce the upward flow from the broom.
I can send you the broom vendor and the Kubota price lists. You can then see the base price and for the different options.
Love a good power broom/sweeper. I have the North American BX2680 with the front power broom. I'm a commercial chicken farmer with a smallish barn 15,000 square feet. I have to wash my concrete floor once in a while.
Question, do you think I'd be able to wash my concrete floor with a power sweeper? How does yours handle with wet?
I normally only use my broom on a dry floor but I don't want to use a pressure washer wand and walk all over my barn if I can just wet the floor down, turn my sweeper on low and spray down after.
Thoughts? I think your rpm was too high for this kind of work. It seemed to make a mess. Did you try low or medium rpm range?
Hi Nicolas, Cleaning wet floors with the rotary broom will not be an issue. I also cleaned my clinker road with it while being wet. You can even buy brooms that have a combination of polypropelene and steel fibers. Buth when the dirt is too sticky it might not come loose. In that case you will need a vertical rotating brush like the weed brush examples I showed in this video: ruclips.net/video/0zcOh7LcatQ/видео.html, these are specialised for cleaning sticky stuff and I expect will also have better splash behaviour when used in wet conditions.
With respect to the mess: I already did use a limited RPM, but still got a mess. The actual cause of this mess is the high outflow of this rotary broom resulting in too high dirt release. In the next video on snow cleaning I lowered the outflow that made a huge impact on the mess, see: ruclips.net/video/19O0PNssUQk/видео.html.
@@OutdoorsintheLowCountries oh beauty!!! Awesome vids, thank you. Yes my broom has a metal dirt guard so I can probably get away with using my broom. Great work on the roto brush boss.
Are you in Holland (Low Countries)? My dad is from Limburg (Berg an de Maas). Came to Canada when he was 11 years old. I visited Holland when I was 10, I remember it was beautiful there :)
@@Vaessen13 Then I live not so far away from where your dad comes from. :-)
Yes it is very beautiful around here. But I expect Canada also to be very beautiful.
