Explorer Hay Rakes

Model MX, High Capacity Pull Type V Rakes
The Sitrex Explorer pull-type hay rake is a medium sized V-rake. This machine is designed to obtain a maximun working width of 23'-3" and windrow widths adjustable from 3' - 5'. The drawbar and the opening system are mounted over the wheels this allows to make a windrow without interferance with the components of the machine. All rake wheels spring-load lift independantly, this allows the machine to follow the ground contours. Tines are made of special steel with 7mm diameter. Tines pick up the hay making fluffy windrows very suitable for baling. A double hydraulic system, tractor driven, controls both the wheels lift and the machine total or partial opening and closing. On the hydraulic cylinder, which controls the opening and closing of the machine, is mounted a locking valve to maintain the required working width. Even in case of hose breaking the machine remains in the same position which it has been set.
