NO David Bradley rakes had the fluff (ted) feature. That requires an extra gear in the gearcase that is a different size and will make the real run 4 times as fast and in reverce direction, throw the hay out the back. For that you had to if the rake had a second caster wheel have a way to flip it up to get it out of the way of the hay otherwise it would get twisted up tight. The David Bradley you cannot raise up that caster wheel. It has been 31 years since we sold ours when we quit dairy that I cannot remember just how the clutch worked. There was the parallel bar that is made simular to all the New Holland rakes with one axle on the back with only 2 wheels and only made 1 or 2 years at end of David Bradley machinery production being sold by Sears. Then there was the offset wheel model that is made on the same design as the J D 594 LW rake in that it has 2 small (12") caster wheels on the rear and both toward the left side and the right front wheel was about 2' out beyond the end of the real, this was the most popular model and what we had. Then there was the wheel in line model that had 1 caster wheel at the left side but the second was in line behind the right front wheel and with this model you could actually reach out to the right far enough to pull the fence into the winrow without a wheel hitting the fence. The offset model the wheel would hit the fence and the end of the real would be 2 feet inside the fence. For tandeming hitching the wheel in line followed by the offset wheel would have been nice. The last of these 2 styles were sold in either 1956 or 1957 and the parallel bar model in 1958.
