AN ATTACHMENT FOR A PRIME MOVER
An attachment (60) for a wheeled work vehicle (2) for clearing snow comprises a support housing (3) which rotatably carries an elongated cylindrical brush (5) and a plough blade (4), with the plough blade (4) and the brush (5) alternately operable between a lower operative state and an upper inoperative state. End elements (62) are pivotally coupled about vertical pivot axes adjacent respective opposite ends (15,16) of the plough blade (4). The end elements (62) are pivotal about a main vertical pivot axis (64) between a plurality of forward and rearward states through respective outward states. A coupling mechanism (7) couples the attachment (1) to the wheeled work vehicle (2) so that the support housing (3) is slewable between a transverse state and respective maximum offset states. When the housing (3) is in the transverse state with the plough blade (4) in the transverse state, the end elements (62) may be configured in a plurality of working states relative to the plough blade (4), for example, with the end elements (62) in respective first forward states, in respective first rearward states and with one of the end elements in an outward state and the other in a first forward or a first rearward state. When the support element (3) is in one of the offset states with the plough blade (4) in a corresponding offset angled state relative to the transverse state, the end elements (62) are operable in a plurality of working states including second forward and rearward states with the end elements extending either forwardly or rearwardly relative to the plough blade (4) and parallel to the direction of normal forward motion of the wheeled work vehicle (2) or in respective outward states extending outwardly and substantially aligned with the plough blade (4).
