Lead. It fits on the operator’s 
back with wide shoulder straps 
and padded back rest, leaving both 
hands free for easy operation. It

lever in the right hand. The left 
hand operates the flexible hose and 
nozzle. It has a large material hopper with wide opening and 
handy scoop. filler. Valves and bellows are replaceable. It has

well made machine that should last a lifetime with reasonable 
care.
