MODEL EVC-4H RIDING LITTER VACUUM

 

Elephant-Vac model EVC-4H hydraulic powered litter vacuum.
 
Elephant-Vac model EVC-4H Hydraulic Litter Vacuum sucks up litter as the operator drives along, directing the vacuum hose to pick up scattered litter strewn against or in fences, under trees, around bushes and along curbs, as well as in wide open spaces. It enables one worker to do the work of five manual litter pickers, saving labor costs and freeing up valuable manpower. Elephant-Vac is engineered for maximum durability, efficiency of operation, lower noise levels, and increased operator safety.

The hydrostatic vehicle drive enables the operator to maneuver the vehicle fore and back with a single foot pedal. The vacuum hose is mounted on a balanced spring-boom for easy side to side and up and down movement. Drink cans, plastic bottles, paper cups, cigarette butts, leaves -- anything that fits into its 8" diameter hose is drawn directly into a throw-away plastic bag. Removal and replacement of the bag takes less one minute.

Model EVC-4H is easy to operate with its forward reverse foot pedal and balanced hose boom, safe and stable with its four wheel configuration, and simple to maintain with its modern gas engine. Elephant-Vac model EVC-4H is powered by a Briggs & Stratton 23 HP Vanguard engine. This modern, V-twin, overhead valve, gasoline engine drives both the vehicle drive pump and the separate vacuum fan drive/power steering pump.

Four-wheel stability and a low center of gravity make Elephant-Vac amazingly sure-footed, even on grades and inclines. Your operator can confidently roll across ramps, bump up and down curbs, and clean up hilly terrain in complete safety.

Model EVC-4H spreads its 1,100 pounds evenly over four rubber tires for maximum traction and weight distribution, allowing Elephant-Vac to go "off-roading" without damaging the landscape. Unlike pavement bound machines, Elephant-Vac can reach litter anywhere -- from a fragile fairway to a muddy field. 

Save costs using the Elphant-Vac method of "hands off" litter clean-up.
