blade 21 can be adjusted with respect to the
axle by loosening the fastening elements 25,
so that the blade will cut a predetermined
depth.
5 A frame 26 is pivoted upon the yoke and
carries a ground engaging roller 27. The
ground engaging roller maintains the ma-
chine at the same level so that the knife 21
will cut the same depth throughout the
10 course over which the machine is moved.
While I have shown and described what .I
consider the preferred embodiment of the
invention I desire to have it understood that
I do not limit myself in this connection,
15 and that such changes may be resorted to
when desired as fall within the scope of
what is claimed.
What is claimed is:
1. A machine of the class described com-
20 prising a handle, a yoke secured to one end
thereof, an axle carried by the yoke, wheels
loosely mounted upon the axle, spaced blades
mounted upon the axle and disposed edge-
wise at an inclination to. the ground, and a
25 cutting blade secured to the axle between the
spaced blades at a right angle to the latter,
and at an inclination to said axle.
2. A machine of the class described com-
prising a handle, a yoke carried thereby, an
30 axle supported by said yoke, wheels jour-
naled on said axle, spaced parallel blades
fixed upon the axle at an inclination to the
ground and disposed edgewise. a cutting
blade mounted upon the axle between said
35 spaced blades and at a right angle thereto,
said cutting blade being disposed at an incli-
nation to the ground and susceptible of ad-
justment toward and away from the lat-
ter with respect to said axle.
40 3. A machine of the class described com-prising a handle, a yoke carried thereby, an
axle supported by said yoke, wheels jour-
naled upon the axle, spaced parallel blades$
fixed upon the axle and disposed edgewise at
an inclination to the ground, a cutting blade 45
carried by the axle and arranged between
the spaced blades and at a right angle there-
to, and a ground engaging roller supported
from said yoke and arranged at the rear of
said blades for the purpose specified. 50
4. A machine of the class described com-
prising a handle, a yoke carried thereby, an
axle supported therein, rollers journaled on
said axle, spaced parallel blades fixed upon
the axle and disposed edgewise with respect 55
to the ground, a cutting blade secured to
the axle and arranged between the spaced
blades, said cutting blade having spaced
parallel slots, fastening elements for secur-
ing said blades to the axle, said elements 60
passing through said slots and permitting
said blade to be adjusted with respect to
and transversely of said axle, for the pur-
pose specified.
5. A machine of the class described coin- 65
prising a handle, a yoke carried thereby, an
axle supported by said yoke, wheels jour-
naled upon the axle, spaced parallel blades
fixed upon the axle and disposed edgewise
and at an inclination to the ground, a cutting 70
blade carried by the axle and arranged be-
tween the spaced blades, said cutting blade
being mounted for adjustment with respect
to and transversely of the axle, and dis-
posed at an inclination to the ground, and a 7'
ground engaging roller supported from said
yoke and arranged at the rear of the blades
for the purpose specified.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
