I'm looking for a decent 6' medium duty landscape/York rake w/gauge wheels. Has anyone seen any "deals" out there? I'm in n. central CT. Haven't seen anything used in my area worth looking at. Thanks.
I couldn't find anything around either so when I bought my 3130 I got a 7' Land Pride w/gauge wheels. Bought with the tractor, I think I paid around 850.00 from Kahn Tractor in Franklin.
If you buy new you may want to condsider a 7' rake. Unless you really want a 6' rake. The 7' is wide enough to reach out beyond the tire path. Even on an angle. A 6' rake may be a little to short.
MSRP on a landpride 15 series (light duty) 6' rake is $778. Wheels add $366. +$100 for the 7'. I picked up a used 6' w/ wheels for $600 at the local deere dealer. I tried to rent one, but everyone wanted the tractor to go out with the rake.
Try calling around to various local dealers for a used unit. I think I got lucky that I found one when I needed it.
MB has a couple used ones listed - $695 & $790. Look in thier "used equipment" section.
