c-man,
Here's another picture of a 4 star tedder. The outside stars will fold up to vertical for transport. This tedder is 3 point hitch, as opposed to trailing. Note the hay laid out to the rear of the tedder, that is 2 swaths from my 2 meter discbine. The tedder spreads and fluffs the swaths for better sun exposure and air movement. The 2 stars on the left counter-rotate towards each other, and are tipped slightly forward to pick up the hay and throw it up and to the rear! the 2 stars on the right do the same.

Edit: This is the same tedder in transport position, (it stores hydraulicly)
