CR450S, CR550, CR550HC, CR550H specifications

The Billy Goat line of debris and lawn vacuums, including the CR450S, CR550, CR550HC, and CR550H models, is designed for both residential and commercial users seeking efficient and reliable outdoor cleanup solutions. These machines are renowned for their robust construction, powerful engines, and innovative features.

The CR450S is a compact model well-suited for smaller properties and tight spaces. It boasts a powerful 4.5 horsepower engine that ensures impressive suction capability. The vacuum's 27-inch wide nozzle allows for quick collection of leaves, grass clippings, and debris, while its lightweight design facilitates easy maneuverability. The CR450S also features a 5-bushel capacity collection bag, which is designed to optimize airflow and reduce clogging, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

Moving to the CR550 series, users will find enhanced power and efficiency. The CR550 utilizes a commercial-grade engine that delivers 5.5 horsepower, making it capable of handling larger debris and more demanding cleanup tasks. The 27-inch nozzle still provides excellent coverage, but the increased power allows for improved suction performance even in challenging conditions. The CR550 is equipped with a 7-bushel collection bag as standard, allowing for extended operation before needing to empty.

Two variants of this model, the CR550HC and CR550H, bring additional features for specialized tasks. The CR550HC (High Capacity) is designed for heavy-duty applications, featuring a high-capacity collection bag that holds an impressive 10-bushel volume. This makes it ideal for professional landscapers and contractors who require prolonged usage without frequent stops. The CR550H offers enhanced filtration and a more robust design, ensuring dust control and improving air quality during operation.

All models in the Billy Goat range integrate user-friendly features such as adjustable height settings and ergonomic controls, making them easy to operate for users of all skill levels. The durable construction of these vacuums, including heavy-duty wheels and sturdy frames, ensures they can withstand the rigors of regular use.

In summary, the Billy Goat CR450S, CR550, CR550HC, and CR550H models represent the pinnacle of vacuum technology for lawn care and debris management. Their combination of powerful engines, high-capacity bags, and user-friendly features make them essential tools for anyone looking to maintain a clean and tidy outdoor space. Whether for residential or commercial use, these machines deliver the performance and reliability that users can trust.
