Sitrex Columbia rakes are pull-type side delivery hay rakes that are easy to hook up and easy to use.  The main beam supports a series of in-line raking wheels that rake hay in one direction only.  All of the raking wheels raise and lower at the same time; the only adjustment that needs to be set is the angle at which the rake is going to operate.

Raking angle controls raking width.  Maximum raking width on the 7-wheel rake is 15'.  Maximum raking width on the 9-wheel rake is 18'.  The rakes can be used at narrower raking widths simply by adjusting the angle of the drawbar.

These rakes are designed for fast ground speeds, and work extremely well in flat to gently rolling conditions.  We do not advise using the in-line rakes in very hilly conditions.  In these conditions it can be difficult to keep the rake tracking across the slope without the rear wheel sliding down hill.

The key benefit of the Columbia rake is its simplicity.  One pin attaches the drawbar to the tractor, and one remote outlet is all that is required to operate the hydraulics.  For many haymaking operations this rake is the ideal solution, both for affordability and ease of use.
