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.
