Abstract: An agricultural machine which comprises a frame carrying a mounting for agricultural implements such as a plow together with a handle for steering and controlling the machine with at least one axle on the frame. Wheels are provided on the axle whereby the frame may be run over the ground and a last part of a kinematic chain is arranged to drive the wheels. Also provided are rotary hoe propelling mechanism including an engine, a clutch and a gearbox which drive a shaft, the clutch gearbox and the shaft form a first part of the kinematic chain and a mounting for the rotary hoe propelling mechanism is arranged so that a second part of the kinematic chain is driven by the first part and will engage with the last part of the kinematic chain so that the engine drives the wheels.

Abstract: A rotary-blade type mower having a blade which is power-driven and mounted in a housing, the housing having an open-bottomed rearwardly-opening grass-discharge chute; rear wheels on the housing being pivotally fixed to opposite sides of the mower by rear wheel mounting and an interconnecting rod extending between the rear wheel mountings and having an intermediate bend along its length so that part of the interconnecting rod passes above the rearwardly-opening grass-discharge chute and another part of the rod being disposed at a lower level; a control handle engaged with the rod so that by operating control handle the rod is moved to cause the wheel mounting members to rotate about their pivotal mountings and vary the height of the housing and the blade rotating therein.
