Echo Power Broom (ProSweep) Attachment

The genuine Echo power broom attachment is part 99944200553, 36 in wide. Echo's own name for it is ProSweep; on the open market it sells under at least three different titles - "ProSweep attachment", "power broom" and "sweeper attachment" - all for the same 99944200553. Confirm the number on the listing rather than trusting the title, the same rule that applies to every other attachment on the PAS attachment parts page.

Like every PAS attachment, it has no engine of its own - it is a rotating bristle head that bolts to the coupler at the bottom of a PAS power head, and the power head's engine drives it exactly the way it drives an edger blade or a trimmer head.

Every genuine PAS attachment fits every PAS power head, because Echo built the whole Pro Attachment Series around one boom and coupler standard - the power broom is no different from the edger, blower or tiller attachment in that respect.

The power broom is sized for light work: grass clippings off a driveway after mowing, leaves and debris off a walk or patio, loose material off synthetic turf or bleacher seating. It is a bristle brush, not a blade or a set of tines.

Two products it gets confused with under the same search term: a dethatcher, which pulls thatch and moss out of a lawn with rigid tines rather than sweeping a hard surface, and a stand-alone gas-powered walk-behind power sweeper - a different, much heavier product line sold with its own engine built in. Neither of those is what 99944200553 is. If the job is pulling up turf rather than clearing debris off a hard surface, the PAS power broom is the wrong tool regardless of what a generic listing titled "power broom" implies.

99944200553 shows up on both genuine Echo listings and third-party "replacement" or "compatible" listings quoting the same number - confirm the number and the PAS fitment before buying rather than trusting a seller's own title. Unlike a trimmer head or a blade, there is no separate bristle-refill part sold under its own number: a worn or torn brush section means replacing the whole attachment, the same bolt-on-as-a-complete-unit rule that applies to the gear head.

For reach, the same 3 ft PAS boom extension (99944200536) used across the attachment lineup fits between the coupler and the power broom, which helps on sloped driveways or when sweeping without bending down close to the head.
