Abstract

There is disclosed a dispensing apparatus which is mounted at the rear of a tractor and which employs two friction wheels mounted on a common frame. The frame is pivotally mounted so that an operator can cause the friction wheels to engage the rear wheels of the tractor. The friction wheels are attached to a rotatable shaft which contains a pulley. When the friction wheels engage the tractor wheels, the pulley rotates and by means of an associated belt, causes rotation of a dispensing cylinder associated with a cannister or hopper containing chemicals to be dispensed. Means are provided for adjusting the tension on the belt as well as for engaging said friction wheels in constant contact with the tractor wheels. The apparatus further incorporates a selectively actuated aerator assembly which is used in conjunction with the dispensing apparatus to maintain and perform lawn maintenance services.
