DAYEE DY580-173P-00 Petrol Leaf Collector
The DAYEE DY580-173P-00 is a hand-push petrol machine that vacuums leaves through a front intake into a 150 L rear bag, mulching them at up to 10:1 by DAYEE's figure. It works a 58 cm (23 inch) width and runs on DAYEE's own DY1P70FA 173 cc engine. Suction height adjusts at the front through five positions from 15 to 60 mm, and an optional DY580-03 hose kit reaches leaves the intake cannot. DAYEE lists it in its Walk Behind Leaf Blower Series. It suits clearing loose leaves from lawns, paths and yards. This page covers the full table, the engine page, bag handling, the hose option and what to send for a quote.

Build my procurement briefWhat this machine does
Despite the blower-series name, the DY580-173P-00 is set up to collect. Its table lists suction height, a collection bag and mulching, and the photograph shows a front intake feeding a large rear bag. No blowing or reversible mode is listed.
It is made for loose leaves. The chipper field is a slash, so branches, stones and other hard debris are outside its job. Tell DAYEE what you need to clear: leaf type, how wet it usually is, the surface and the finish you expect, and ask for the list of permitted materials. Stem diameter limits, wet-leaf throughput and area per hour are not published. Within DAYEE's range, the DY780-212S-00 self-propelled leaf collector suits buyers who would rather not push, while the DY580-1600S-00 dual-battery and CXD1600 mains-powered collectors run without petrol.
Published specifications
Read each value with its stated conditions, and ask the manufacturer for any limit not listed here.
| Specification | Published value | Meaning / limit |
|---|---|---|
| Model and drive | DY580-173P-00; Hand Push [1] | The P version is pushed by the operator. The Self-Driving Speed field shows a slash. |
| Working width | 58 cm / 23 inch, as listed [1] | Intake width. Overall machine width and turning space are not printed. |
| Engine | DY1P70FA; 173 cc [1] [2] | DAYEE also publishes this engine on its own page with matching figures. Confirm the installed revision on your order. |
| Machine rated speed | 3400/min [1] | The machine table does not name the part this speed applies to. |
| Engine maximum power (engine page) | DY1P70FA engine page: 3.1 kW at 3600 rpm [2] | Peak engine rating at 3600 rpm. The machine runs at its own listed speed, so output in use may differ. |
| Engine type and starting | Single cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled, OHV; electric start NO on engine page [2] | From DAYEE's engine page. Ask for the starting procedure for the delivered machine. |
| Suction height | Front adjustment; five positions; 15–60 mm [1] | End points only; the step heights between them are not listed. |
| Bag and mulching | 150 L bag; up to 10:1 [1] | Bag volume and DAYEE's best-case reduction ratio. Leaf type and test method are not given, so a bag will not always hold 1500 L of loose leaves. |
| Idle airflow | 37 m/s air speed; 2650 m³/h air volume [1] | Both measured at idle. Airflow with a loaded bag or the hose fitted is not published. |
| Fuel and oil | Fuel tank 1.5 L; Oil Tank Capacity 0.6 L [1] [2] | The machine and engine pages agree. Follow the manual for oil type and filling. |
| Handle and wheels | Telescopic and rotary handle; front/rear wheels 8/10 inch [1] | Handle adjustment range and transport position are not given. |
| Hose kit | Optional accessory, model DY580-03 [1] | Sold separately. Hose diameter, reach and fittings are not listed. |
| Scarifier, brush and chipper fields | Scarifier, brush, chipper and brush/scarifier speed: slash [1] | None of these functions is offered on this model. |
| Carton and loading | 760 × 620 × 640 mm; 81/171/228 pieces for 20GP/40GP/40HQ [1] | Shipping carton and container counts. No weight figures are printed for the machine or the packed unit. |
Idle airflow and a working demonstration
DAYEE prints 37 m/s and 2650 m³/h as idle figures. Where they were measured and how they change as the bag fills are not stated. A short demonstration on your own leaves tells you more. Leaf and grounds-care machines from other makers are grouped under garden and forestry.
| Item | What to agree with DAYEE |
|---|---|
| Front intake | A demonstration on your leaf type and surface, with the bag supplied and a stated height setting. Record how much is picked up and how long it takes. |
| Filling bag | How suction changes as the bag fills, and when the machine should be stopped and emptied. The maximum filled weight is not printed. |
| Hose kit | Performance and limits for the DY580-03 kit if you order it. Hose-end airflow may be lower than the intake figures. |
| Comparing machines | Compare collectors on the same leaves and settings. Idle airflow alone does not rank machines. |

The 150 L bag and where to empty it
DAYEE quotes mulching of up to 10:1. Real reduction depends on leaf type and moisture, and the test conditions are not given. Plan with the 150 L bag volume. The maximum filled-bag weight is not listed either.
Include the emptying point and route in your enquiry. Ask for instructions on fitting, removing, emptying and cleaning the bag, and on keeping the air path clear. Agree what a good collection result looks like with the configuration you are buying. Bag size helps compare offers; trips to the tip depend on your leaves.
Intake height, handle and pushing route
The operator pushes the machine, sets the front intake height and adjusts a telescopic, rotary handle. Overall size, pushing force and weight are not printed.
| Feature | What to ask for |
|---|---|
| Five intake positions | The range runs from 15 to 60 mm. Ask for the position diagram and recommended settings for each surface. |
| 58 cm width | Full width with wheels and handle, and turning space, so you can check gates and paths. |
| Route and surface | Guidance on slopes, soft ground and pushing a full bag. Wheel sizes of 8 and 10 inch set no limits by themselves. |
| Handle and storage | Adjustment limits, working and transport positions and folded size. Adjust the handle as the manual instructs. |
Adding the DY580-03 hose kit
DY580-03 is the only accessory named in the table. Scarifier, brush and chipper fields are slashes, so this model offers none of those functions.
Describe the hose job
Tell DAYEE which corners or beds the front intake cannot reach. Hose diameter, reach and nozzle shape are not published.
Confirm what is in the kit
Ask for kit contents, fittings and changeover steps for the DY580-173P-00.
Get the changeover procedure
Request instructions for switching between intake and hose, including engine stop and guard checks.
List it on the quote
Have the kit and its spare parts priced as separate lines. It is optional and not in the standard box.
The DY1P70FA engine page
DAYEE's engine page matches the 173 cc displacement and the 1.5 L fuel and 0.6 L oil entries. It describes a single-cylinder, four-stroke, air-cooled OHV engine with 3.1 kW maximum power at 3600 rpm. The machine table lists 3400/min.
| Engine page figure | How it applies to your order |
|---|---|
| Power in use | Peak power is quoted at 3600 rpm. Ask DAYEE for the engine revision fitted and the output at the machine's working speed. |
| Starting and service | The engine page says electric start NO. Request the starting procedure, engine manual and parts list for the delivered machine. |
| Weight | The bare engine weighs 13.5 kg and measures 430 × 350 × 360 mm. Ask for the complete machine weight and size separately. |
| Support | Which engine and machine parts DAYEE supports, and the part numbers for your build. Warranty length and service intervals are not published. |
Delivery and acceptance
The 760 × 620 × 640 mm carton and the container counts help with freight planning. Stock, price, delivery date and packed weight come from DAYEE's quote.
Match the build
Check model and engine plates, hand-push drive, intake adjustment, bag, handle and any DY580-03 kit against the order.
Collect the documents
Assembly, operating and service manuals, parts list, machine weight and dimensions, and the papers your market requires.
Record the result
Run the agreed leaf, surface and setting test and note how filling and emptying went, with any limits agreed.
Arrange receipt and service
Confirm packing, handling at receipt, quantity, date and written warranty terms. Book freight on the packed machine weight.
Buyer questions
Can it blow leaves as well as collect them?
The table lists suction and collection only. If you need a blowing mode, ask DAYEE in writing whether any version offers it. [1] [3]
Does 10:1 mean each bag holds 1500 L of leaves?
Not reliably. The ratio is DAYEE's best-case figure without stated test conditions. Plan around the 150 L bag and your own leaves. [1]
Is the hose included?
No. DY580-03 is an optional accessory. Ask for its contents, fit and price on the quote. [1]
