ABSTRACT:
A vehicle is controllably powered to be steerably moved over an area. Mounted on the front of the vehicle is a cutter assembly. Also mounted on the vehicle is a hopper. Mowed cuttings are delivered by a conduit from the cutter to the hopper. An outlet mounted within the hopper is coupled in use to the conduit for distributing received cuttings on into the interior of the hopper. A driver mounted with respect to the hopper moves that outlet in a systematic pattern to vary the direction of distribution of the received cuttings.
An elongated paddle is mounted to swing reciprocally in correspondence with movement of the outlet. Upon the occurrance of impedence against the swinging of that paddle, by cuttings collected within the hopper, a switch is actuated to energize an indicator.
