Abstract
A zero turning radius mowing machine has a string trimmer bracket-mounted to it. An extra sheave is mounted to a mower blade shaft above the mower deck, and belt-coupled through an electric clutch to a hydraulic pump mounted on the mower deck. A switch mounted near the operator's seat, is operable to activate the clutch to operate the hydraulic pump and supply hydraulic power to a hydraulic motor coupled to the string trimmer to drive it as the mower is mowing a lawn or the like. The trimmer mounting is adjustable, and the trimmer has a ground-engaging pod causing the trimmer head to float along the ground contour activate and de-activate the pump. Hydraulic oil storage is in a tank serving also as a front bumper and trimmer bracket mount.
