Kuhn provides a wide variety of hay-gathering tools giving you the ability to put up better quality hay. Rotary rakes speed hay drying by making fluffy, light and uniform windrows that dry faster. These windrows are easier to pick up with today’s high-capacity balers and forage harvesters. Mergers help ensure the production of high-quality hay by gentle handling, minimal leaf loss, reduced contamination and a fluffy windrow for better forage harvesting. Wheel rakes provide an economical way to quickly rake hay so you can put up hay fast.
Exclusive in this machine class, the patent pending windrow adjustment feature allows independent adjustment of the windrow width and raking width to best match specific crop and pickup needs. A built-in mechanical rake arm flotation slot provides superior terrain following without the need for a tractor with hydraulic float. The simple selector valve provides fast, easy switching between transport and field positions to save time and maximize productivity. Additional options include tandem axles and a larger kicker wheel.
Features may include:
New Hitch Design
The new hitch design allows for greater adjustment to more precisely match different tractor drawbar heights from 11" to 22". This design also minimizes hang down, preventing the crop from wrapping around the hitch.
Patented Lift Design
When the rake arms are lifted the front wheels lift first, then the rear wheels raise last. This results in properly raked row ends unlike competitive models. Rake arms also lift faster and more smoothly for increased productivity.
Raking Side Adjustment
A new easy-to-adjust handle saves you time when going back and forth from distant fields. Three adjustment positions include transport, right-side raking and standard, left- and right-side raking.
Rake Arm Flotation
The built-in mechanical rake arm float slot eliminates the requirement for the hydraulic float to be engaged on the tractor. The rake arms easily adapt to irregular field conditions.
Independent Windrow Width Adjustment
The windrow width can be adjusted independently of the overall raking width. This gives you the ability to tailor to specific volumes of crop or to match differing pickup widths. You can also rake at a steeper angle in heavier crops and maintain a narrow width, or rake at a flatter angle in thinner crops and form a wider windrow.
