ABSTRACT:
A rotary mower apparatus comprises a mower deck with a plurality of rear wheels mounted behind the mower deck and at least one front wheel mounted ahead of the mower deck such that the mower deck rides along the ground on the wheels. A floating hitch member is pivotally attached at one end to a top portion of the mower deck so as to pivot about a substantially vertical mower axis, and is adapted for pivotal attachment at an opposite end to the tractor about a substantially vertical tow axis. The attachment further allows the mower deck to float with respect to the tractor to follow contours of the ground. A drive is operative to transfer power from the tractor to rotate the cutting blade, and a mower angle control is operative to selectively pivot the floating hitch member about the vertical mower axis with respect to the mower deck.
