ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for clearing debris is disclosed. More particularly, a method and apparatus for clearing manure and other material from under a feedlot fence row is disclosed. The apparatus is preferably mounted to a vehicle such as a skid loader. The apparatus consists of a mounting structure for affixing to a vehicle, a pivotally mounted arm affixed to the mounting structure, and a motor driven wheel rotatably mounted proximate a distal end of the arm. The wheel has a plurality of teeth or shanks extending therefrom for digging out debris from under a fence row and throwing the debris away from the fence. In practice, an operator may drive a vehicle parallel to a fence row and selectively pivot the wheel in and out between fence posts to clear manure out from under the fence.
