Features
High-capacity design
High frame clearance increases productivity
The WR31 Series High-Capacity Carted Wheel Rake has a high frame clearance and an increased distance between the transport wheels and raking wheels, measured at 81.3 cm (32 in.) and 45.7 cm (18 in.) respectively. This clearance allows for a high volume of crop to flow through the rake, reducing crop plugging while increasing productivity.
Large raking wheels for added productivity
High-quality hay with larger raking wheels
The 152.4-cm (60-in.) diameter raking wheels of the WR31 Series have fewer revolutions per hour than a smaller raking wheel traveling at the same ground speed. This reduction in revolutions minimizes crop leaf loss, leading operators to produce higher quality hay. A larger diameter wheel will have a longer wear life, increasing the life of the raking tines.
Quick field adjustments
The WR31 Series High-Capacity Carted Wheel Rake has three easy adjustment points to fine-tune windrows and gather more hay in each bale.
Adjustable down-pressure spring
1. Simply change down pressure by adjusting a spring to the desired setting for accuracy on uneven terrain.
Increase crop volume by adjusting simple adjustment
2. Adjust wheel rake width to gather higher volumes of crop by adjusting a single pin and clip.
Windrow jack for quick and easy adjustments
Adjusting windrow width
3. Fine-tune the windrow width by utilizing the jack to adjust the pitch of the wheel rake beams to get the right size windrow for the baler. (Only available on the WR3110 and WR3112 models)
Kwik Pik wheel system
Rake arms in position with Kwik Pik system
Kwik Pik system mechanism
The Kwik Pik system lifts both rake arms at the same time. This system allows for immediate clearance of the rake wheels from the crop, which in turn does not affect the windrow form during headland turns. Headland turns can be made faster, increasing productivity and uptime for the operator. The windrows will maintain a rectangular shape for easy pickup with a baler.
Adjustable hitch to match wide array of tractor bar heights
Convenient and quick hitch adjustments
The adjustable hitch allows for added versatility with the WR31 Series High-Capacity Carted Wheel Rake. With the wide array of tractor tire sizes and drawbar heights, hitch adjustments add more convenience for large hay operations.
Single tractor selective control valve (SCV) with double-acting valve
Double features increase pressure and cycle time
The double-acting valve allows hydraulic pressure to flow both in and out, providing a 25 percent faster hydraulic cycle time.
Individual wheel hub grease zerks
Easy maintenance with accessible grease zerks
The ability to properly lubricate moving parts, such as the wheel, extends the life of these parts, leading to increased uptime.
Center kicker wheel conversion kit for carted wheel rakes
Option featured on WR00
Option featured on WR31
The center kicker wheel conversion kit improves drying time and windrow pickup for the baler by raking the hay in the center of the rake that is not turned by the rake wheels.
