    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    That looks like a very nice machine that delivers great results. I find it strange they got away from the roller. Probably a cost cutting initiative.

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    Thanks Ed! It looks like the unit I purchased has at least a couple of those weak spots addressed. I haven’t confirmed the material of the chain tensioner rollers or gate but the chain housing has 3/8” flat bar fully welded wrapping the bottom of the housing as well as adjustable skids and...

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    Nice work Cataclysm. I haven’t forgotten about this thread and will definitely share my experience once I get to use the rake. Unfortunately it will be a while due to hurricane Ida demanding my free time. It may be spring before I can try the rake. Thanks all for the information and advice so far.

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    cstamm81, I just completed ordering the PR284P with the carbide teeth, depth shoes and hydraulic angle. I finally got tired of looking for a decent used rake at a fair price and decided to move on. My tractor has 3 remotes so I will be able to angle and tilt while covering tire tracks which is...

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    dirttoys, my research has shown that the Harley brand in equal widths of other mfgs is roughly 2-400 pounds lighter in weight. Can you share what is breaking down on your rake? Is it structural cracks requiring welding or replaceable wear parts? Ted over at Everything Attachments stopped selling...

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    Thanks C, really appreciate the reply and sharing your experience. Your video highlights exactly what I like about power rakes doing the job of several implements at once. Chopping, holding dirt until its fine then dropping it in low spots and seed prep all in a pass or two. I've also seen...

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    I thought the same initially then I literally tore up a quality gear driven tiller trying to penetrate and level 10 acres of hard clay soil. I never got to finish as I became tired of repairing and waiting on parts to continue. I feel tillers are more suited for gardening and even food plots...

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    I got pricing on the 6 foot models and the York was $10,895 with free shipping. The Blue Diamond is right at $12,000 delivered to your local dealer. I didn't price the Erskine but I agree it seems to be very well built. The link you posted on the MTW got the better of me so I decided to give...

    Thanks Travis, Its sad to hear that. I'm also being told the same regarding Paladin and the slipping quality/support of their rakes. Just thought I would ask on a hunch that you would be offering something from a better MFG.

    Ted, any chance you will be offering 3pt power rakes again? I would definitely like to purchase from you again but noticed they are no longer offered.

    Who makes the best power rake / soil conditioner?

    I'm also in the market for a power rake. I've researched them until my head started hurting trying to find good value without skimping on quality. From my research I found out that it is key to have properly sealed and protected rotor bearings, no oversized rotors to prevent stalling and over...

    Flail mower angle

    On my 72" Vrisimo I place the tractor on a level concrete surface and adjust the roller and top link to achieve a completely level mower at the desired height which for me is 2". I then place the skid shoes level with bottom of the hanging knives which places them also 2" off the ground. My...

    Flail Mower Flail mower vs. rotary? (pros & cons)

    I've been running Flail Mowers for over 30 years so I understand what a scoop knife is and it was noted in my 1st reply that I was refering to such.... All I'm saying is that there are options other than Flailmaster for replacement parts. Just sharing information that may be useful to members...

    Flail Mower Let's talk flail mowers

    My mower can be set up for forward rotation or reverse. According to the manual rotation direction is dependent on the application. It came from the factory set up to run in reverse and I have no reason to change it since the cut quality is like that of a finish mower. I have put it through its...

    Very Proud of our Box Blades!!

    As said earlier the quality of EA attachments are hard to beat. The paint quality however leaves a lot to be desired. The EA piece I received today was also needing paint as prior purchases have. No big deal though, I still prefer this design verses the competition. I'll take functionality and...

    Cutting grass around pond

    Yes, It's a Tanaka model TPH-260PF. There are also several other mfgs that make the 59" shaft (93 overall length) commercial pruners for right at the same price. Stihl, Redmax, Echo, Husquvarna just to name a few. One correction on the unit I purchased is the bar is 22" instead of 24" earlier...

    Cutting grass around pond

    I've spent quite some time searching for an efficient way to trim my pond bank and I haven't heard about anything that works really well with minimal effort. The levee end of my pond is about 250' long and has a non mowable bank about 3' wide on about a 45 degree angle. After reading about the...

    Herd Seeder "Don't Do It"

    Well after a few days of research and hearing all the great things about Herd seeders I decided to spend some of my hard earned dollars to purchase one. (Shipped by Beaver Valley Supply) That was a bad mistake. Apparently, when Kasco purchased Herd all quality and control went out the window...

    quick hitch

    The standard lower link inside spread for quick hitches is 27" to 27-1/8. This is also the spec for the JD imatch hitch. When I built my hitch I wanted to keep the lift arms at the factory length to maintain stock lift capacity and I didn't want to purchase a longer top link and PTO shafts...
