This Rake Completes The CASE Hay Team

My CASE baler and mower date from the sixties. I don't know much about the rake but sure it to be older given the colors. Not a sealed bearing on it, all grease zerks. Has some wear but with proper greasing this will run a long time yet. Works great, only needs a few tines and must be missing a jack. Rod.

Hi Rod;

I have one of those in my collection and the book came with it.
It had three lift options, hand lift like yours, hyd, cylinder or eagle hitch. The eagle hitch was a round bar in place of the drawbar clevis hitch, no center link, just lifted the front of rake but it did pivot, just like a semi-mounted plow. Bought years ago at the Carroll auction for $60.00

Rod, I have lit on the 100 and 200 series rakes,, both are much alike, from what I see from my scans I see the gear box on the 200 looks smaller, and there is other changes I would guess,, glad you got it should make a fine addition to the Team Rod haying crew

Thanks for pics and info Tom, yes as the other guys said it is a 200 as I can see in your lit posting, Rod.
 


I spent many hours on the seat of a VAO pulling a rake just like that.
All they had for a jack was a stand made from 1" square shaft. They were made in the mid 50s.
Bro and I did it again, except he was quicker at the draw than me. We both scanned the same piece of lit.

Bro, It is a 200 series rake. Look at the end of the basket frame and notice the difference between how the frame rails were fastened together on each series. The backbones of the two series were different also.

Rod, You can make it a 3pt very easy. Get a Cat-1 cross drawbar and weld or bolt a tab to the center of it and close up your bent clevis and put a 3/4" bolt and nut through the draw pin hole. You need the tab on the cross drawbar so the clevis doesn't bottom out on tight turns.

It was nice of Case to put the tires on the outside of the frame. My older Deere ones you have to spit the shaft between the tires to change one.
