A worker clears leaves with a XY-700 leaf cleaner on a street in Beijing on November 27. The recently introduced XY-700 leaf cleaners and the dual-use over-the-should cleaners were put into use by the Environment Service Center of Xichen District in Beijing. The two machines can be used to clear leaves and dirt from grass lands, bus stations, footpaths and tree pits.
