With its remarkable performance and adaptability, the New Holland H5980 heavy-duty wheel rake is designed for high-capacity hay farms. Its offset wheel design allows for a maximum raking width of 30 feet without the need for a center kicker wheel thanks to its 17 60-inch raking wheels, nine on the right and eight on the left. This setup maintains operating rates of up to 15 mph while guaranteeing consistent dry down. The tractor seat controls the rake's hydraulic width adjustment, which enables windrow lengths of up to 72 inches. To improve efficiency in a variety of settings, the innovative mechanical rake beam may also be changed by up to 10 degrees to tailor windrow density to crop conditions. The H5980 is designed to provide reliable, superior performance in a variety of field circumstances thanks to features like automated wheel alignment, personalized flotation, and sturdy construction.
