Which rake for 3x 10ft swaths

[Peaceagri]

Does anyone make a 4 rotor that makes two swaths, instead of all down to a single swath? For dry hay. That would be fantastic for our big fields and cut the passes in half.

Got a class 2800 here and it will do everything you need no probs.

Got this for sale if you want......

Pile of crap. The foil around a KitKat would be stronger than what this thing is made of.

Surely you will just claim?

Metal fatigue according to the insurance, cracked on the edge of the weld, and they dont cover it, argued it and still no joy, so we'll repair it as good as we can and go from there, probably run it a year or so and trade it in.

Hats crazy but if you smashed it through gate that would be ok

How much as is

 

[Fendtbro]

Does anyone run a claas or krone twin rotor rake where both rotors turn the same way, making an option to gather from both sides for a monster bout or one pass to make two smaller bouts with the rotors separated and a curtain on each? In single cut heavy hay the bout will not even get under the tractor when the 7301 Kuhn is raking about 7 meters. I want to gather about 4m with each wheel then the width of the bout on top. Can't find these machines in the uk, why not?

We'll just fix it up our self, shouldn't take much, just getting everything back square with each other be biggest job, and try and make it look original so won't look out of place when selling it.

I’d try to find/make a box that fits inside the original frame slide it in the two half’s and drill some holes and plug weld through onto it to spread the load out from where it’s broken

Yeah that's what the plan was, our local welder man knows about it, so might get on it over Christmas/New year.

It's a amazing where companies can try to use less steel to cut costs , only to be caught out , I was looking at a bale wrapper , it looked identical to a Mchale , it was made in Poland and it was a Mchale copy. It was priced very well but when I checked the weight of both machines the polish wrapper was 500 kg lighter , a lot for a small machine .

Its a wonder you don't know someone with both of them
