<div>I’m admitting it. I’m an old broke down guy. Been fighting
leaves this week with a zero turn and a cyclone rake leaf vacuum. (Nearly 2
acres with 75 oak trees = many leaves) My worst part is filling
equipment with fuel. I’ve got bad shoulders... one surgery’d and the other
needs it. Hoisting and holding a 30-35 pound gas can up above waist high
is getting to me. The holding is the hard part... I know it gets lighter as it
empties but it’s still a struggle. It takes 12-15 gals to fill the zero
turn and about 1/2 gallon to fill the vac motor. but both inlets are high
and it’s at an awkward position also. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I’m looking for a rack or tilting rack that will hold standard red plastic
gas cans and allow for easy filling...I know I’d have to lift the can into the
rack.. but then the rack could hold the weight during filling. I’ve seen the
tilt racks for round 5 gallon cans but they are all too short. I can’t
find anything on the net to suit. I won’t replace my cans with the ez-pour
bottom spout cans. That would be about 150 bucks. I keep 5 five gallon
cans for the mowers.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Haven’t found an affordable pumping system that wasn’t too expensive,
yet The cheap plastic ones behind Google all have bad reviews.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Anyone built something like this ?? Or, have an affordable
pumping system that works ??</div>
<div> </div>
<div>thanks</div>
