Orbach offers the GHR series of trailed V-rakes – ideal for making the perfect windrow regardless the crop and field conditions. All in a one-pass operation.

One of the secrets to the success of our trailed V-rake is the fact that both rake arm frames are completely independent from the main chassis. These rake arm frames or “wings” as they are sometimes called can pivot and have wheels in front that will follow your ground levels as you work. The rake wheels are thus carried by the frame which allows for independent adjustment of each wheel. No uneven rake wheel pressure found on our GHR trailed rakes compared to other V-type designs!

The wings fold open to the desired working width and locks in place with rigid stabilizer arms. Each rake wheel has its own spring suspension to ensure that the wheel will move up and down as required. This is a setting that can be adjusted to achieve the desired ground pressure for the rake.

These rakes are capable of handling large volumes of hay. The wheels work in front of the wing frame, so nothing can obstruct the flow of hay towards the back to form the windrow.
For transport position the wings get folded to face forward, parallel with the drawbar, then locked to set the rake in transport position. The front wheels of the rake can pivot, and they are braked to keep them stable. It can now be easily towed on the road, just like a trailer.

An optional kicker wheel is available to ensure that the material in the middle also gets raked and moved. The need for it depends by the width of your mower, and the number of rows you want to rake together. Typically, 3 rows would require a kicker wheel, but 2 rows not.
