DEERE IMPLEMENT COMPANY. 



" Deere" Sulky Rake. 



Hand Dump. 

 Lock Lever Wood or Steel Wheels. 



This is an improvement both on the "Deere Rake," which was brought out in 1887, and on the "New 

 Deere" of 1888. All "Deere" Rakes will now have (1) a new style spring seat as illustrated in above cut, 

 and (2) combined shafts and pole on all 20 and 26 Tooth Rakes. 



The Deere Rakes are constructed so that the weight of the driver assists in dumping, which, with an 

 easily operated hand lever, makes the rake almost equal to a self-dump, with less cost and complications, 

 and so easily operated that a boy can use it. 



Points. 



TEETH. These are double coil, made of refined Cast Steel, tempered in oil. Every Tooth is war- 

 ranted not to become weak, or bend out of line. 



ADJUSTABLE DUMP. By an ingenious device at the upper end of the Lever, the set of the Teeth 

 and the Dump is regulated at will. This feature enables the Rake to be adjusted so that the Teeth will 

 hug the ground closely far raking fine grass, or stand three or four inches from the ground for gathering 

 coarse trash, etc. 



LOCK LSVER. This is so arranged as to be in easy reach of the driver, and so as to dump the 

 load Dy a slight upward pressure on the handle. When in use the same Lever locks the Teeth into their 

 position firmly. 



SPRING SEAT AND HIGH WHEELS. These features secure ease of draft and comfort to the 

 operator. 



IRON SPINDLES These are carefully made of selected stock. They are let into the wooden 

 axles of the Rake, and strongly secured to their places by heavy bolts. 



CO MUINED SHAFTS AND POLE. 



GENERAL CONSTRUCTION. The Teeth are independent and may be readily renewed in case of 

 breakage or accident. 



The Cleaner-car is well ironed where it comes in contact with the Rake Teeth, a feature possessed by 

 no other Rake, we believe. 



The braces, Clips, etc., are of selected wrought iron, thus doing away with the breakage inseparably 

 connected with cast-iron and malleables.
