I am buying the 51" front mounted rotary broom for my 2210. One of the uses I've seen mentioned is for lawn de-thatching. Sounds like an idea that I never considered. Anyone out there ever used a broom for that??

I have a friend with a Grasshopper 928d with a broom for detaching, he couldn't get a detacher that was at least 5 foot wide. Then with his other 928d collects the thach with the vac unit. ....
