The SR 600 GII is the next generation heavy-duty, high-capacity SpeedRake, designed to meet the needs of today's progressive hay producers. With 14- and 16-wheel configurations and raking widths up to 31', the innovative design provides unparalleled maneuverability on the road and in the field. SR 600 GII machines also offer superior productivity and operation. The unique, innovative unfolding system moves the rear wheels forward as the rake opens, reducing the overall length of the rake by up to seven feet, and the shorter wheelbase provides easier turning and smoother operation when raking around corners. Improved rake-wheel flotation results in cleaner raking, while preserving crop stubble. In addition, standard windguards allow smoother crop flow with less leaf loss and improved capacity. Independent flotation settings for the two rear rake wheels on each side allow them to be set heavier to handle larger volumes of crop. The angle of these wheels can also be adjusted to set the windrow width independent of the working width to best match crop conditions. The new standard offset rear tandem axle also provides consistent operation and exceptional tracking in rough terrain for a total package that offers the ultimate combination of efficiency and quality performance.
