What is this hydraulic blower from?

Charlie · Oct 20, 2012

I bought this blower at a yard sale, thinking to put it on the end of my bobcat forks to clean the driveway and maybe move leaves. Not sure how powerful it is. Can anyone help me figure out what it's from so I can estimate its potential? That might also help me decide whether to mount the long output slot vertical or horixontal. Thanks. (Maybe from some kind of sweper unit??)

Looks like the vacuum from a Jd corn planter.

I see the resemblance inthe outside shape, but this has a hydraulic motor (on the right of the picture) driving an internal fan, also visible through the output opening.

To answer the question, I've figured out that it is the vacuum fan from a sweeper, such as the Tennant 285.
