JOHN DEERE SELF-DUMP 
STEEL HAY RAKES 



Reece 
a 
JOHN DEERE SIDE-DELIVERY RAKE 
WITH FLOATING CYLINDER 
The smooth, flexible motion of the floating 
cylinder causes the hay to be “floated” into 
loose, fluffy windrows. The hay is handled 
more gently than it possibly could be with a ae 
rigidly-mounted cylinder, the windrows are ve 
more open and airy to permit the rapid evapor- 
ation of moisture by the free circulation of — 
air, more of the leaves are saved, and the color CA 
is preserved, resulting in a higher quality of 
hay. 
A Simple, Labor-Saving Method 
Making hay with the aid of the John Deere Side- 
Delivery Rake requires but little more effort than 
driving a team or a tractor. 
One man with this rake does all the work which, in 
the days of hand rakes and pitchforks, required the 
efforts of a small army of men and women, boys and girls.

Vien Daas : 
In light or heavy hay, while raking into wind- 
rows or bunching—in all conditions—the John 
Deere Self-Dump Sulky Rake does a clean job of 
raking and dumps easily. Even in exceedingly 
rough ground, it is giving remarkable satisfaction 
to users the country over. Its better performance 
makes a place for it on every farm. 
One trip across the field on the John Deere will 
convince you that there’s a big difference in 
sulky rakes. It will also make you realize, be- 
yond all doubt, that the John Deere has the 
features for which you have long been looking— 
clean raking and ease of operation in varying 
conditions, and a sturdiness that means long life.

Full-Floating Gathering Cylinder 
This is the only loader that has the full- 
floating gathering cylinder used in combina- 
tion with the raker-bar elevation. The floating 
cylinder is not a new idea on a John Deere 
loader. This feature was first introduced 45 
years ago on the John Deere Double-Cylinder 
Loader and, since then, has been largely 
responsible for the success of John Deere 
Loaders. It is especially valuable when the 
loader is used with tractor. Because the 
flexibly-mounted cylinder floats, it automatic- 
ally adjusts itself to the uneven ground sur- 
faces and gets all the clean hay regardless of 
how rough the field may be. Once the cylinder 
is adjusted for the volume of hay to be gath- 
ered, it isn’t necessary to make further 
adjustments in the field to take care of varia- 
tions in the ground surface—the self-adjust- 
ing spring-mounted cylinder takes care of that. 
No time is wasted by the tractor operator in 
getting off and on the tractor to make adjust- 
ments in the field, as he would if the cylinder 
were rigidly mounted. The result is better 
work and cleaner raking without the teeth 
digging in. 
The special springs which control the open- 
ing at the lower end of the compressors give 
the proper pressure to both large and small 
quantities of hay as it is delivered to the 
carrier.
