Does anyone here have a John Deere 350 pto hay rake? Im looking for some
measurements on the stand Im making for it, mainly where to put the transport mounting hole at the top.

I think the hole for transporting the stand would be close to the bottom rather than the top. Location of transportation hole would be immaterial as long as foot piece didn't interfere with inserting pin & foot piece was high enough not to drag hay. For transportation I think one could raise rake then just remove stand & invert utilizing existing hole for pin
 
The original stand had a slot at the top so the rake wouldn't creal on a slope. Then when you folded it up would stay also. Just measure with it down.
 
Do you have any pictures of the top of the stand? A guy had told me it was a 1/2" X 1 1/2" slot but would like to get it as close to original as I can.
 
The top frame of the rake doesnt permit it to go straight up enough for
transport. I had the same idea as well. The manual pictures it upside down for
transport but has no clear pictures of the actual stand.
 
Mine has a washer welded at the top for a bolt to go through. Don't know what was original, i.e. slots. When I don't need the stand, I take it off.

Alan,

I have a 350 rake but I am about 200 miles from it but if I remember correctly it only has one hole in the stand. I will be back home in a couple of days and look to be sure. The pictures that I have of it dosen't show the area well. Tom

That would be wonderful if you could get me a picture of the top end out of the bracket and possibly some measurements of the extra hole or slot if there is one. It is greatly appreciated. I make reproduction part so if Im going to make it I want to make it right the first time. ;)
