I use a 5 wheel rotary it works quite well in light or heavy hay and if you set the speed correct and set the wheels to be about 2 to 3 in. off the ground it will roll the hay up real nice for the baler to pickup. I set the baler so that the pickup is above the ground level about 2 in or so since the row is twisted by the rake it will pick it up without the pickup wires hitting the ground. this keeps dirt and other objects out of the baler. I have seen small pieces of wood and Horse dumpling bounce along the hay till it fell off to one side and loose dirt will fall down below as there is a good clearance between the hay and the ground.
You can use just about any of them but the wheel rakes are much cheaper and have very little upkeep.
