Tongue Clevis Adjustment
It is important that the Hybrid Hay Runner operates level. The tongue clevis is adjustable and should be adjusted so the rake is as level as possible.

Installing Rake Wheels
The Hybrid Hay Runner has right and left hand rake wheels and it is important that they are installed correctly. The rake tines at the bottom of the wheel where the tine touches the ground should point forward. The carriage bolt heads in the center of the wheel should be on the side of the wheel that touches the hay. See picture below.

Adjusting Rake Wheel ground pressureRake Wheel ground pressure can be controlled by adjusting the torsion spring on each wheel. Tighten the nut on the eye bolt to decrease the ground pressure and loosen the nut to increasethe ground pressure. The rake wheels are ground driven and require good ground contact in order to operate properly. Adjust the wheel ground pressure to achieve good raking action without damaging the crop. Do not exceed the amount of rake wheel ground pressure necessary. Excessive rake wheel ground pressure can cause crop damage and premature rake wheel teeth wear
