Is there an accessory for cleaning gutters for this unit?

The Husqvarna Gutter Kit Model 952 71 19-18 fits Models 125B, 125BX or 125BVX only. They do not list a gutter kit for the Model 580BTS.

Yes. Broom, wet towel, anything to clean it. We just shake it off outside when crumbs get on it.

The best way I found is with a vacuum that has a hose attachment and use the soft brush attachment and that should do a pretty good job.

I sprayed the inside of the gutter with spray rubber. That way I don't have the copper intact with the metal gutter.

Look into buying hardware cloth (a heavy duty mesh) at the local home improvement or farm supply store. I would attach inside the gutter at each downspout opening so nothing can climb up inside the downspout and access the gutter and roof, but still lets any water drain out. Keep the gutters maintained so leaves, etc. don't block the downspout opening.

I made a gutter cleaning attachment with three pieces of one-inch PVC pipe and two 90-degree elbows, attaching it to the blower by cutting the bottom off a plastic bottle and taping it to the front end of the blower. Nothing elegant, but it works!

My Washing machine has a external drainage hose that is attached to a scrub sink by a plactic tie wrap. The lint filters advertised here attach to the end of the drainage hose with a plastic tie wrap and the water filters through the lint filter to catch the link as the hose drains. I am not aware of anything you can put inside of the washer itself to catch the lint.

Use a piece of regular tape on the corner and lift. You can also use tape on the adhesive side if lint get stuck to it to remove all the lint.

No, it does not have gutters, but rain is somehow easily diverted, and the only moisture you get inside, is with high winds blowing it in.

No it would not. Would most likely get caught up into the gutter. There is a gutter accessory for the blower, made exactly for cleaning out gutters. The only time this would not be needed is if you have gutter covers that are secure and you are just blowing off debris from the top of the gutter cover.

I agree with Emily's comment....no squeegee attachment but the capability is there to add one. I'm looking to add an attachment soon to mine to clean some vinyl siding that's impossible to reach with a regular sponge mop.

Nope, I use mine for sweeping the garage floor and blowing off my sidewalks and garage approach and it works beautifully for that. I am not sure what it would do with the cleaning of rain gutters. If the leaves weren't packed down, I would think that it would work.

So you don't have to have gutters to collect the rain water...rain chains work just fine...so does a 'V' in the roof...there's a screen over the opening to prevent leaves, etc.

I had the same problem. If I remember correctly the instructions tell you which model will work with the gutter attachment.

I honestly do not know. I use a Frebreeze feather-type cleaning cloth to remove the dust particles located on the front of the unit.

If that is a concern buy a separate scruber and squeegee. For the price works very well.

It comes with a set of replacement tines. The unit appears to be enclosed, except for the rakes (tines). Therefore I assume minimum maintance. However, dirt did accumulate on the underside, but it fell off after the unit dried.
