Description
When your wheel rake’s lift mechanism starts getting sluggish or the arms don’t return to position like they should, a worn lift spring is usually the culprit. This little spring does a big job—it helps your rake wheels lift and lower smoothly when you’re navigating uneven ground or turning at headlands. Without a good spring, your wheel arms can drag or not follow ground contours properly, which means uneven raking and missed hay.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-wound spring designed for consistent lifting action and long life
- Proper tension to keep rake wheels floating and following ground contours
- Durable construction that handles thousands of cycles during hay season
- Direct replacement for original equipment—no modifications needed
Built for Real Farm Work
This spring works with various wheel rake designs where individual rake wheels need to lift and pivot around obstacles or uneven terrain. Whether you’re raking first-cutting alfalfa on smooth ground or tackling rough pasture hay with rocks and dips, this spring keeps your rake wheels working as they should. It’s the same type of spring that came on your rake originally, designed to handle the constant flexing and movement of serious haymaking.
Made to Last
Rake springs take a beating with all the bouncing, lifting, and ground following they do during hay season. This one’s built from quality spring steel that maintains its tension and won’t weaken or break under the constant stress of field work. The material and heat treatment are designed to give you seasons of reliable service.
Installation Notes
Replacement typically involves removing the old spring and installing the new one using your rake’s original mounting points. It’s a straightforward swap that most folks can handle with basic tools. Just make sure to check other lift mechanism components while you’re at it—worn pivot bushings or bent arms can put extra stress on new springs.
