Abstract
A two wheeled mowing and trimming apparatus is disclosed. A rotating cutting head, positioned out in front of the wheels, can be positioned adjacent to either of the wheels while at the same time being tilted. Control of the cutting head's position is maintained through the use of a handle which allows the operator to tilt the frame. In response to the tilting of the frame the wheels are turned and the apparatus can then be positioned to travel in a direction parallel with a fence or building. With the wheels turned, the vegetation existing along the outside edge of the wheel closest to the structure can be trimmed. Also the cutting head is angled downwardly as a result of the tilting of the frame so that the vegetation can be cut close to the ground.
