I was raised on a saw-dust pumper,used one my first three year in CATV.  I was in the backyards of Ft. Leonardwoods, Mo. one day in 1982 when I heard this noise coming from the pole of a new guy.  After seeing what  he had ;  I had to have one too!  The next day I drove 80miles to Springfield and found a lawn mower shop that ordered me one.  5 days later plus $479, I had me a Tanaka.  Best thing since the Telsta( I learned about them in 1984).  I bought my first pair of lineboots from Sears in 1981
( Later I learned about WESCOS).
Today I do own a saw-dust pumper again//I keep it in immaculant shape just in case some young  guy doubts what it can do??????????
