ABSTRACT:
A triangularly shaped frame having truncated and flattened vertices serves as a structural load-bearing member for an attachment to a yard tending device, such as a gas powered yard trimmer or leaf blower. A pair of support and maneuvering wheels is affixed to the frame. Affixed centrally to the frame, and rising generally vertically therefrom, is the first end portion of a lawn tending device support bar. At its first end portion, the support bar is of generally straight configuration. This straight portion serves to hold the lawn tending device at a sufficient elevation with respect to the ground. The straight portion of the support bar smoothly transitions to generally declining compound arcuate spanning portion. The spanning portion smoothly transitions to a generally declining straight second end portion. The second end is formed such that it comprises a cradle or channel running centrally and axially according to the length of the second end portion. The cradle portion serves to center the shaft of the yard tending device, to minimize rotation of the device, and to aid in the firm clamping of the device to the attachment. Optionally provided at the uppermost truncated vertex of the frame of the attachment is a bracket that may be used as an alternate mounting surface for affixing yard tending devices such as a leaf blower. Various clamps are provided to ensure that the yard tending device may be firmly affixed to the attachment of the present invention.
