Abstract: An attachment for a commercial grade frontal mower/slasher comprises a forwardly extending member which can be raised and lowered and which extends in front of the mowing direction when in the lowered position. The forwardly extending member contains a plurality of transversely spaced steel fms which have a particular shape such that if the fms strike an obstacle such as a hidden rock in long grass, the fms will cause the forwardly extending member to be lifted which will alert the driver of the obstacle. The forwardly extending member can also be manipulated to allow the obstacle to be dragged away. The fms in the forwardly extending member can also be pushed into clumpy material such as lantana or blackberry and the mower reversed to allow the material to be mowed.
