Patent attributes
An apparatus for mounting a street blower to the front end of a zero-turn riding mower. The mounting apparatus comprises a main support beam that extends across the front of the mower frame and rests on top of the frame. The main beam preferably includes a securing mechanism that engages the left and right angled extensions of the mower frame to keep the mounting apparatus from sliding forward, backward, or to the sides. On top of the main support beam is a central eyebolt for anchoring a chain that holds the blower such that the wheels of the blower are preferably all suspended above the ground. At least two lower support arms are attached to the main beam, each of which comprises a vertical support and a horizontal support. At one end of the horizontal support is a cradle designed to support the axle or rear frame of the blower.
