PARALLEL BAR RAKES<br />
Rake More Value Into Every Bale.<br />
Whether you’re turning damp windrows or<br />
pulling swathed hay together ahead of the<br />
baler, <strong>New</strong> <strong>Idea</strong> 4100 Series <strong>parallel</strong> <strong>bar</strong><br />
<strong>rakes</strong> do it efficiently and effectively. Thanks<br />
to the five-<strong>bar</strong> basket design, you’ll gently<br />
lift and turn valuable forage, so each bale<br />
retains optimum crude protein and relative<br />
feed value. With each pass, you’ll sweep<br />
more leaves into every fluffy, uniform<br />
windrow and leave nothing behind but<br />
clean stubble.<br />
In fact, 4100 Series <strong>parallel</strong> <strong>bar</strong> <strong>rakes</strong><br />
incorporate a number of features designed<br />
to help you put as much high-yielding crop<br />
as possible into every bale.<br />
Hydraulic-drive models let you adapt to a<br />
wide variety of field conditions; from heavy,<br />
wet hay to light, dry straw. Basket speed is<br />
independent of travel speed, and speeds<br />
range from 80 to 120 rpm at working speeds<br />
of up to 10 mph, so you pick the pace. You<br />
can even reverse basket direction for gentle<br />
tedding or fluffing that speeds drying time –<br />
and saves you the expense of additional<br />
equipment.<br />
The 4100 Series ground-driven models are<br />
ideal for use with small tractors without<br />
hydraulics. The enclosed, direct-drive, oillubricated<br />
gearbox provides positive drive<br />
from the ground to the basket, and it easily<br />
engages for raking and disengages for<br />
transporting between fields. An overrunning<br />
clutch in the drive wheel hubs lets wheels<br />
travel at different speeds without affecting<br />
basket speed, so you get fluffy, even<br />
windrows no matter how many times you<br />
turn or curve.<br />
4111 Dual Rake Hitch cuts raking time 50%.<br />
Save labor and fuel and get your hay out<br />
of the field faster, with the 4111 dual rake<br />
hitch. On-the-go hydraulic control lets you<br />
combine <strong>rakes</strong> in the pattern that best fits<br />
your needs; to generate two windrows<br />
simultaneously or convert two windrows into<br />
one. And, because the 4111 features<br />
hydraulic rear rake positioning, you can<br />
negotiate tight corners and narrow gateways<br />
with ease.<br />
What’s more, you can easily position the<br />
<strong>rakes</strong> for transport – just line up both <strong>rakes</strong><br />
behind your tractor and use the transport<br />
lock <strong>bar</strong> to secure the rear axle in place.
