    Another rake question

    ok thanks that helps me out by knowing how they operate. With the wheel rakes are the carted ones with four wheels better than the ones with just two? How small or large can you make the windrow with one of these?

    Another rake question

    do the V-rakes run off hydraulic pressure all the time or just how do they work, both the rollobar v rakes and the wheel rakes. I saw one video that said the wheel rake rake off of the crop as you were driving. I'm really confussed on these things. I really like the looks of the rolla bar V...

    Tractor Using Oil

    Don't know what you mean by blow by, and the exhaust smoke with a hard pull is black. The temp. gauge stays steady at the normal temp. Not hot not cold in the middle. And it fires right up everytime. Does not miss or sputter, just looks like a coal train pulling a hill when in use. If...
