Handy Front-Mounted Fold-Up Guide For V-Rakes HAY & FORAGE HARVESTING Rakes 44 I also came up with this handy front-mounted fold-up guide for my V-rake that makes it easy to follow the edge of unraked hay It’s built with 2 telescoping lengths of square tubing that have metal rods and short chains at the ends The tubes can be adjusted up to 15 1/2 ft wide and fold up out of the way so I can drive through narrow gates
It eliminates the need to look back all the time and lets me know exactly where to drive Otherwise the tendency is to overlap a foot or so over into the raked area in order to keep from missing strips of hay This device results in full windrows so my New Holland 4 by 4 round baler makes more even bales
The tubes pin onto a homemade angle iron “bumper” on front of the tractor They’re held together for transport by a metal rod that pins onto brackets welded on about halfway up the tubes Robert T Murphy Jr 10154 Wolf Lane Dardanelle Ark 72834; ph 479 229-4102; murphyft@gmail com
