After yet another sopping wet year last year, I decided to take the plunge and add a (used) rotary rake to our haying lineup. This Kuhn GA 4101 GTH has definitely seen some love, and I discovered a few things once it hit my yard (seems to happen no matter how thoroughly you look at a piece of used equipment...). But all in all, I'm hopeful that I got it in working shape, and that 2024 will be the year of gloriously fluffy, aerated windrows. We'll see!
(I certainly won't be getting rid of the trusty NH 256 rake, don't you worry!)
