About the VRC1224
Engineered to perform today – and for years to come. The VRC1224's fully welded tongue and frame form a single-piece steel structure that helps extend the performance and life of the rake, and its high-clearance frame helps reduce plugging when raking high-volume crops. Patented rubber torsion suspension maintains consistent ground pressure throughout the rake's lifespan for clean hay and long-lasting rake performance.
Simple and precise tool-free adjustments on either side of the rake allow the operator to modify both the overall raking width and the windrow width, and the hitch height adjusts quickly in the field without the need for tools. With single-sided raking, you can rake more hay on ditches and uneven ground to maximize your crop and shorten your dry-down time. An improved hydraulic system lifts and lowers each toolbar at the same rate and automatically locks the toolbars in various positions, so turns in the field and storing for transport are quicker and easier. Enhance dry-down and minimize crop loss with the optional dual-wheel center splitter.
