Does anyone have experience using a “kicker style” hay tedder? It has the tines that look like meat forks mounted on a sort of crankshaft.
Do these things do a decent job of tedding loose mowed hay (not in a windrow)?
It’s sure nice to think about hay instead of snow:D

Tractor moves to fast as a rule,Frank

Both women that drive with them use them on their farms for haying all summer. The single one was recently refurbished and is in beautiful shape.
Here are some pictures of them.

Is that a Pioneer set of shafts on the single tedder? Great pics by the way. Looked like a great day to be out working with the horses. But then again what day isn’t.
