A wheel rake has big vertical wheels with fingers all round the outside edge, I do not know how few wheels one can have but the fewest I have personally seen is 4, I know they make big ones with al least 8 or 10 wheels, probably more.

Side delivery rakes have a wheel or a star on each end with bars connecting them, this assembly sits in a frame. There are fingers along the bars and the hay is swept to one side as the rake passes over it. They are handy in small or rough fields and are easier to turn corners with. I have used side delivery rakes but never a wheel rake. Type your keywords into google images or similar site to see pictures of the many variants of both types. Another common thing is the tedder/rake/fluffer type of machine with horizontal wheels, they look really handy but I have never run one myself. Zach
