A finger wheel rake is a rake that has thin flexible long metal fingers or teeth that radiate from a central hub. Finger wheel rakes come in a variety of sizes and configurations. Generally speaking, there are several finger wheels that are attached to a frame in even spacings. The frame is then mounted to the three-point hitch of a tractor and is towed behind it to perform its function.

What is the purpose of a Finger Wheel Rake?

Finger wheel rakes were developed to make the gathering of freshly cut hay a simple task. The rake fingers gather the hay as they rotate and deposit it into neat piles or windrows. As the tractor tows the rake, the fingers turn and pass the hay from one finger to the next. Raking the ground after a cut makes it easier for the hay to be collected for bailing.
