TR1204L specifications

The Billy Goat TR1204L is a highly regarded debris loader that stands out in the landscaping and grounds maintenance industry. Designed for efficiency and ease of use, this compact yet powerful vacuuming machine is perfect for professional landscapers, contractors, and anyone in need of serious cleanup capabilities.

This powerful engine provides the necessary muscle for tackling tough debris loads, whether it's leaves, grass clippings, or other yard waste. The engine is paired with a quick-attach discharge hose that enables operators to easily switch between collection and discharge modes, maximizing productivity.

The TR1204L is equipped with a 12-inch diameter, high-density polyethylene impeller that ensures efficient airflow and material breakdown.
