Key Features & Benefits1. Wide 72-Inch Spring Tine Design
Cover substantial ground in each pass with a full 6-foot working width. The flexible spring steel tines (2.24 inches long) effectively grab and lift debris without damaging underlying turf or soil. The spring action allows tines to bounce over obstructions, reducing snagging and promoting smooth, continuous operation.2. Heavy-Duty Alloy Steel & Rust-Resistant Coating
Built for years of demanding use:

• Alloy Steel Construction: Provides superior strength and impact resistance compared to standard steel, ensuring the rake withstands heavy loads and rough terrain.
• Powder-Coated Orange Finish: Offers enhanced corrosion resistance, protecting against rust from moisture, soil, and organic matter. The bright color also increases visibility during transport and storage.

3. Universal Tractor Compatibility
Designed to fit most Category 1 and Category 2 three-point hitch systems on tractors up to 45 horsepower. This broad compatibility makes it a versatile tool for:

• Compact Utility Tractors
• Sub-Compact Tractors
• Agricultural and Livestock Tractors
• Older Model Tractors with Cat 1/2 hitches

4. Efficient Debris Collection & Landscape Grooming
The rake excels at multiple cleanup and preparation tasks:

• Pine Needle & Leaf Cleanup: Quickly gathers large volumes of loose organic debris into windrows for easy collection.
• Dethatching: Gently pulls up dead grass and thatch to promote lawn health without damaging live turf.
• Field & Pasture Maintenance: Clears sticks, branches, and dead vegetation to improve appearance and usability.
• Gravel Driveway Smoothing: Levels and redistributes gravel while removing embedded leaves and debris.

5. Simple Hitch Attachment & Operation
Attaches directly to the tractor¡¯s 3-point hitch system:

• Lower Lift Arms: Connect to the rake¡¯s lower mounting points.
• Top Link: Attaches to the upper bracket for angle adjustment.
• Adjustable Angle: Control digging aggressiveness and debris flow by adjusting the top link to change the tine angle relative to the ground.
  Operation is straightforward: lower the rake to engage tines, drive at a moderate speed, and raise to transport.
