Olathe was purchased by Toro in the early to mid nineties. They were good chippers. They also made sweepers for golf courses that used rubber fingers that would pick up branches and other debris besides grass. The company was in Olathe, Kansas I think, hence the name. It was started by one of the Rogers who originally made their own line of equipment including inventing the rubber finger sweeper. They were sold through Jacobsen who eventually bought them out.

Hope this helps. Dave
