We had a huge old Sunburst Locust tree - it was beautiful (but got struck by lightening). We never had to rake around it, as the leaves are very tiny... almost like a "sensitive plant" in their structure. In spring, the leaves pop out golden and then turn to green. Then periodically during the summer, they get a "burst" of new leaves that are golden, compared to the older and darker green leaves (hence the name Sunburst Locust). It had a nice wide and dense canopy... we often sat under that old shade tree to pass the time with company.
BUT if interested in those, you have to make sure you get a "THORNLESS" variety. Also ask about seed pods on the tree... our old one never had them. We planted 3 young ones... and one of them had a couple huge seed pods on it last year. (So I think the kind we have now, are going to be a mess in the long run.)
Here's a pic of a young tree from online. Our lower branches were high enough that you could easily walk underneath them.

I see a lot of discussion forum messages regarding damaged clutches from improper assembly. The objective is to have the engine and transmission slide together safely and easily until the gap between the two halves is less than 1/4", BEFORE tightening any of the bolts holding the two together. Using bolts to draw the two halves together will damage the PTO
