ABSTRACT:
An apparatus may be forcibly moved over an underlying grassy surface, such as a lawn, to evenly apply a liquid treatment material by contact between the outer surface of a support roller contacting the ground. Above the roller is provided a pivotally supported, internal segmented liquid-distribution element from which treatment liquid may flow via a plurality of spouts onto the outer surface of the roller. Liquid is provided to the liquid distribution element, by a plurality of flexible tubes communicating with a liquid container positioned above. A mechanism driven by the roller generates an up-and-down reciprocating motion of a slidably guided element loosely engaging the liquid-distribution element to give it a back-and-forth pivoting motion. Liquid being delivered from the container to the underlying ground surface is thus first sloshed inside the liquid distribution element. This ensures that any undissolved components of the liquid treatment materials are enabled to dissolve, and settlement of dirt and debris which may tend to clog flow apertures of the liquid distribution element is prevented.
