KUHN GA 6501 and 7501+ semi-mounted rotary rakes are the answer to increase raking capacity and maintaining high-quality raking. These rakes include all of the main features of a larger, commercial-style rake, while being offered at a very attractive feature/price ratio. With a wide range of adjustable working widths you can easily find the right fit for your operation. The design of the double-curved tine arms, and tine angle provide you with the perfect formation of windrows for future harvest. With a narrow 8’2” transport width, maneuvering through gates or from field to field is a breeze. For excellent field adaptation without damaging crop stubble, these rakes feature 3D suspension. The reinforced rear-wheel chassis, on the GA 7501+, features tie-rod steering for better maneuverability and agility when raking in small and irregularly shaped fields.
Features may include:
Fully Enclosed Gear CaseThe fully enclosed single-stage gearbox is grease filled and sealed to be maintenance free ensuring a long life. For additional durability, the tine arm holders are fixed on both the upper and lower gearcase covers. The gearbox houses a cam track with a profile optimized for fast lifting action that creates a well-formed windrow while maintaining high clearance over the windrow.
Double-Curved Tine ArmsDouble-curved tine arms are designed to form fluffy and straight windrows for superior raking quality at high speeds. Fluffy windrows allow more air movement through the crop promoting fast and uniform drying!
KUHN rotary rakes achieve this by following two basic principles for ideal windrow formation. First, the tine arms maintain a positive forward position right up to the point where the forage is delivered to the windrow ensuring gentle crop handling and minimal ash incorporation. Second, a steep cam track allows the tines to be raised very quickly to provide additional clearance over the windrow.
