ABSTRACT:
An agricultural implement for operation over the ground beneath the low-hanging branches of trees in an orchard is equipped with shield means effective to prevent or minimize injury to the branches and fruit borne thereby. The inventive feature is the provision of a wheel support and ground-engaging wheel capable of adjustment relative to the main body of the implement, together with a fender carried by the wheel support independently of the main body and a shield member carried by the body and overlying the fender so as to cover the gap between the fender and body irrespective of adjustment of the wheel, wheel support and fender.
