    A simple trick for debris cleanup like that I learned at the local scrap yard. they clean the parking lot with a grapple and an old roll of chainlink fence. i tried it myself at the farm after mowing out some brush along a new field. It works great just grab the roll of fence and push like plowing snow

  • @eosjoe565

    The manuals for most landscape rakes caution to never push backwards against the tines. If you want to rake going in reverse you need to rotate the rake 180 degrees.

    You folks need a brush clipper holstered on your tractors. Christy got the rougher job. She also can cut up everything you raked up with the rough cut mower. Christy caught your error in not checking tire pressures first. Christy is not only your video department, but your quality control. She is a sweet, sharp cookie. Pretty don't hurt either.

    Thanks Tim and Christy for demonstrating the landscape rake. I just got a 72” Behlen with the wheel set. In my opinion your tires are too large for combination forward and backwards operation. The spring setup is interesting though. You both seem to enjoy working together which is a joy to see. God bless you both.

    First time I’ve seen a landscape rake used in this function. I’ve seen a lot of contractors using it to rough landscape new houses. That’s an easy way to make a burn pile for later in the spring after the rains come. It would make quick work of the cut debris…

  • @BG-vq9fd
    @BG-vq9fd 2 года назад

    Mine from Frontier was not designed to go both directions. The gage wheels are not set back far enough from the rake. It does not have the springs just spacers for height adjustment. One of the problems I have with my 2025R is lift height. I have problems getting the 6-foot rake around the uneven yard. I have thought about getting the Artillian 3-point JDQA for the loader so I can have the rake in front.

    I just bought the Frontier LR5060 landscape rake. I’m itching to use it, and this video certainly didn’t help!! Everything was nearly dry here and then rain for almost 24hrs foiled any hopes of getting to use it today. I did a little shopping for a wheel kit for mine, and all used spacers as opposed to the springs. It’s an interesting concept. Like you said, it seems like a lot of pressure back there. I wonder what the advantages/disadvantages are as compared to one another?

  • @stephenlehr6020
    @stephenlehr6020 2 года назад +3

    It looks like those wheels really transform that attachment for use on grass!! I think using it the way you first had it will work much better once you tighten up those nuts above the arms.
    I read many comments on here about "not understanding the point of the springs", but I think they are there as a replacement to the normal spacers. TTWT showed having the casters set in the highest setting (actually a little too high probably, why the wheel was able to turn and end up hitting the rake). To set it lower, you don't have to take anything apart and "adjust" spacers, just tighten the top nut to compress the spring, lowering the rake. I don't think the springs are meant to be compressed by any other means, if they are being compressed and bending the arms they are attached to, you probably need to adjust the height of the the 3pt or the length of the the top link.
    I would love to see a follow up video, maybe even a "short", showing how well (or not well) the caster portion of the wheels turn when you tighten the top nut up just some and then quite a bit (to lower the height). To see if it is a good option compared to the standard washer "spacers", or if the casters become too difficult to spin around.
    It would be nice if the wheels and/or their arms could be turned around, as in installed forward of the rake (like you had done later in the video) but be able to leave the rake orientation the way you had it in the first part of the video. Though I think I would use it the way you first showed it, and like others have commented, use it on the front end loader with the 3pt adapter (Iknew there was another reason I got that.....🤣).
    All of these comments (or opinions) are a result of being able to watch this from the "outside" and read so many others comments while not having to actually try to get the work done and be in the tractor seat, so please TTWT, don't take any of this as negative towards you and Christy, I would know little more than nothing about how to use my tractor and any of it's attachments without this channel (probably would not have known how great a tractor could be really). So thank you for all that you do and share with us.

    You could also get a JDQA to 3-PH adapter for the FEL and use the landscape rake on the FEL. With the tines facing away from the front of the tractor, you'd have more reach when pushing the debris further out into the tree line. You'd also have more reach to sneak in under limbs to pull debris away with the tines facing towards the tractor.

  • @eosjoe565
    @eosjoe565 2 года назад +2

    How do the wheels on that rake adjust for height? Normally they are mounted with spacers like a finish mower or the tail wheel on a rotary cutter where you put spacers above or below to get the height you want. That rake appears to have some kind of spring arrangement. How does that work? I think that is why so much pressure is being applied to the wheels when you lower it as they are too tall. Also, with wheels you can use your hydraulic top link to regulate the height of the tines.

    Nice attachment. What do you make of the wheels not able to rotate? Also, it is interesting how the 2038R and 2032R sound so different. Has to be due to the Turbo. The 2038R is quieter, more muffled easy sounding. My 2032R is loud.
