front dolly wheel plans for hay rake

Anonymous-0 · Aug 26, 2009

Looking for a drawing/close-up picture of a dolly wheel that people fab. up for the front of a side delevery rake. It takes the weight off the hitch. Seen a few pics not nothing close up so I can see how to make up my own. Any help would be nice
thanks

I think the only advantage to it is that you might be able to turn somewhat shorter with it. Another advantage is that it enables you to pull two rakes in tandem with the back rake needing dolly wheels to support itself. I can't see where the rake would pose that much of a weight problem on a hitch. You'll have two more tires to give you problems. The dolly wheels will make it easier to hook and unhook from various towing vehicles.

On uneven ground the teeth follow the ground better than when hitched directly to tractor drawbar.
