I think you're right Kody. Each wheel has a heavy balance spring that keeps the teeth from riding too hard on the ground. The springs connect to a common adjustment tube, with either a crank or a hydraulic cylinder to adjust the ground pressure.

I have an old Farm Hand that looks like the same rake. They made at least two different models. Mine has big wheels - mebbe 4' or a little more in diameter. I have a friend who also has one and his wheels are about three feet in diameter.

Those old rakes are good on teeth. I can't remember replacing very many on the Farm Hand.
