ABSTRACT:
A landscape maintenance device having a power unit and a variety of possible dismountable tools. The device allows for the easy transfer of tools onto and off of the power unit by hinge arrangement with the power unit forming one side of the hinge and the tool forming the other side of said hinge. This arrangement allows for an operator to use the wheeled power unit as a lever to raise the tool into a lockable position and releaseably affix same to the power unit. Also shown is a novel arrangement for transferring power between the power unit and the tool unit wherein a drive sheave associated with one unit and a driven sheave associated with a second unit are releaseably engageable by a belt so retained that the belt is positioned when the units are apart to receive a sheave when the units are connected.
