ABSTRACT:
A plate is detachably securable to the bottom of a conventional lawn mower. The plate covers approximately half of the bottom but leaves the portion open at the rear. A specifically altered cutting blade of the mower, driven by the motor, rotates over the top of the blade. Fixed blades attached to each end of the rotating blade cooperate with fixed fingers fixed to the plate to shred leaves picked up by the mower. The mower, with the device attached, can be placed on top of a stand that has an open front into which leaves may be raked. Thus, a fixed leaf shredder is formed, into which piles of leaves can be raked for efficient shredding and bagging.
