The Trac-Vac Model 854 is a heavy-duty, tractor-powered vacuum system engineered for compact tractors with a Category 1 3-point hitch. By utilizing your tractor's existing PTO power, the 854 provides professional-grade suction without the need for an auxiliary engine. With a massive 44-bushel capacity and rugged all-steel construction, it is the perfect solution for maintaining large estates, campuses, and commercial properties.
PTO-Driven Efficiency: Designed to run on a standard 540 RPM rear PTO. It features a 2-to-1 gearbox coupled with a belt-drive system, producing a powerful turbine speed of approximately 3800 RPM for maximum vacuum pressure.
Large 44-Bushel Collection: Includes an 18-cubic-foot heavy-duty dump cart with a 20-gauge powder-coated steel cover, providing a total collection volume of approximately 50 cubic feet (44 bushels).
Category 1 3-Point Mounting: Specifically engineered to mount on Category 1 3-point hitches. It is supported by stabilizer arms that free up the tractor’s lift arms to raise and lower the mower deck independently.
Quiet & Industrial Turbine: Features a six-bladed forward-curve turbine that mulches debris for superior compaction while maintaining an operator-friendly noise level of approximately 70 decibels.
Clog-Resistant Design: Utilizes large 8-inch diameter intake and exhaust hoses. This larger diameter is specifically recommended for mower decks of 54" or larger to move wet leaves and heavy grass clippings smoothly.
Tapered Steel Dump Cart: The cart body is tapered four inches from front to back, ensuring that collected material slides out effortlessly during dumping with minimal risk of clogging.
Extreme Durability: The all-steel cart cover is powder-coated for long-term rust resistance. For the most demanding environments, an Extreme Cart upgrade is available with a reinforced, heavier steel body.
American Quality: Proudly made in the USA since 1955, ensuring high-quality craftsmanship and reliable replacement parts.
