BEFCO - Pull-Type V Wheel Hay Rake 30–80 HP Tractor | Ground Driven HRC Series 8–12 Wheel Windrow Rake

This pull-type V wheel hay rake for 30–80 HP tractors is designed for efficient windrowing, turning, and spreading of hay in a single machine. Built for dependable ground-driven operation, it helps reduce maintenance requirements while delivering consistent field performance during critical hay harvesting windows. The HRC series is engineered to support both small and large-scale hay operations, offering multiple wheel configurations to match different acreage and crop conditions.

With three operational modes, the rake adapts to changing field needs, whether forming clean windrows for baling, turning crops to improve drying after moisture exposure, or spreading hay for faster dry-down. Floating wheel assemblies and spring steel tines allow smooth ground following, helping maintain crop quality while minimizing soil contamination. Hydraulic folding ensures easy transport between fields and compact storage when not in use.

Features

Three-Position Versatility — Reconfigure between raking, turning, and spreading modes to match field conditions, crop moisture, and drying needs without changing equipment
Ground-Driven Operation — Eliminates hydraulic motors and complex drive systems for lower maintenance costs, simpler operation, and fewer points of failure in the field
Floating Wheel Assemblies with Spring Steel Tines — Follow ground contours smoothly to deliver consistent raking without digging up dirt or damaging fragile crop
Tapered Roller Bearings in Cast Steel Hubs — Provide superior durability and longevity compared to traditional bearing designs, reducing wear and extending service life under continuous use
Hydraulic Folding to 8-Foot Transport Width — Double-action cylinders fold the rake quickly for narrow, roadworthy transport and compact storage when not in use
Ball Valves on Hydraulic Cylinders — Allow selective wing operation for partial windrow raking and secure hydraulic lockout during transport
Upward-Bent Wheel Elbows — Improve hay flow through the rake to prevent bunching and clogging, keeping you moving efficiently across the field
Adjustable Raking Width and Windrow Size — Multiple adjustment points let you customize performance based on crop type, field size, and moisture levels for optimal results
