FEATURES
OF THE SIP STAR 360 - 430 Rotary Rakes |
| |
- The
windrow (swath) is well formed for superior
feeding into baler or pickup wagon.
- SIP
rakes generally have more fingers (tines) per arm
than equivalent sized machines for faster/cleaner raking.
- A fast
raking performance with a clean raking
action gives maximum crop yield.
- Gentle
on the crop with less contamination, and thereby ensuring
maximum nutrient value in the crop.
- Pivoting
headstock allows 23 degree turning compared to
18 degrees on many other similar products.
- Lower
linkage arms are category 1 and 2 and are floating
to allow tractor/rake coupling to better follow ground contours.

 |
Stepless
height adjustment is achieved with a long crank handle
that can be operated from the tractor cabin.
It is
constructed with heavy duty gears for excellent
life and reliability. |
 |
Finger
(tine) angle through each rotation is controlled by a strong
enclosed cam track system with liquid grease. The arms operate
tangentially off the cam track for reliability and long life.
A simple
lever adjustment of the cam track allows
the best setting for gentle crop handling crop from fresh
to dry forage. |
 |
The
patented SIP Autoflow undercarriage ensures
excellent ground tracking and stability for optimal finger
height while raking.
Large
balloon tyres are fitted. |
 |
The
tine arms are removable and fitted to their transport position
and the curtain raised for a narrow overall transport
width of only 1.64 metres.
The height
adjustment crank can be clearly seen in this view. |

OPTIONS |
 |
The
optional front support wheel is available for extremely uneven
ground conditions.
With this
option the front rake height is set by the jockey wheel and
the top link is disconnected for a complete float and pivot
of the rake.
