The front axle is vertically adjustable relative to the frame between a first position where the circular blade is lifted clear of the surface, and a second position where the circular blade is arranged to extend downwards from the frame to cut a predetermined distance into the surface. The frame includes an auxiliary front axle located in front of the axis of rotation of the circular blade. The auxiliary front axe and the rear axle are arranged to support the frame on the surface during a cutting operation and to maintain a selected depth of cut.
