McHale R68-78 Rotary Rake

McHale R68-78 Rotary Rake

High-Output Performance and Superior Forage Quality

The McHale R68-78 Twin-Rotor Centre Delivery Rake has been engineered to deliver a clean, well-aerated swath under the most demanding field conditions. This high-performance rake balances a heavy-duty build with a gentle touch that preserves valuable fodder quality.

Whether you are combining three 3-meter rows into one or picking up a crop left fully spread, the McHale R68-78 ensures a perfectly shaped, consistent swath optimized for maximum baler or harvester throughput.

Key Features & Capabilities:

  • In-Cab Width Adjustment: Hydraulically adjust your working width on the go from 22′ 4″ to 25′ 7″ (6.8m to 7.8m) directly from the tractor seat using the convenient in-cab control.

  • Superior Ground Contouring: Each rotor is suspended centrally by a large coil spring and rides on a 6-wheel bogie chassis, ensuring equal ground pressure and precise float across uneven terrain. This drastically reduces soil contamination in your swath.

  • Heavy-Duty Cam Track Unit: The smooth-running, grease-filled cam track is a sealed unit designed for maximum service life. Features 13 removable tine arms per rotor (with 4 heavy-duty 10mm tines per arm).

  • Individual Rotor Lift: Standard individual rotor control lets you easily manage headland maneuvers via an ergonomic toggle switch.

  • Compact & Safe Transport: Rotors fold down securely to keep transport dimensions highly maneuverable—under 13′ 1″ (3.99m) travel height and 9′ 4″ (2.84m) width. Comes equipped with mudguards, road-legal lights, and reflective markers as standard.
