I grew up around 2 Harleys owned by the neighbors. Pa bought a Schulte with an apron. The neighbor to the south bought a Haybuster later. The Harleys were good machines, but required a rake and wagons to catch the rocks from the elevator. Probably none around anymore.
The Schulte was well built and Pa built a rock rake for the cause. His MarkII rake was a good one. The Schulte apron had a lot of wear parts and the bushings and rails needed a lot of attention. This was resurrected by welding a D-8 grille in the apron pan. It allowed the rocks to roll up and dirt to fall through. The grille prevented the small rocks from wedging between the pan bars which would bind with the apron teeth and cause the wear on the bushings. The apron tooth spacing was around 2-1/2� so smaller rocks stayed out there, but anything from an egg to a basketball was taken in by the apron reels and placed in the rear basket which was hydraulically dumped at the rock pile.
I ran the neighbor�s Haybuster which was a rake configured the kick the rock into the cleaning/ elevating drum and place them in the rear basket. Haybuster is a very good machine and the price will be a bit more than a Schulte. They were physically bigger and took more Hp.
The brand Pa talked about was a Dagleman. Similar to a Schulte, but used a reel instead of an apron. Likely had fewer wear parts and Pa heard good reports of them. I have no experience with a Dagleman or similar reel type machines.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the
