Drag rake

[kpinnc 18,915]

So the folks working on my house cleaned up most of the debris from the fire. That being said there is alot of small stuff everywhere. Siding, drywall, burnt pieces of lumber, and whatever else you can imagine. Of course this makes mowing a bit of a challenge. So I bought something to drag around and pick it up. Not to mention it will help smooth some of the ruts left by heavy equipment. At least to the point they won't snag the mower deck. 

 

I'll report back how it works later this evening.

Looks like it is still touching the ground even with the lift handle up??

 

Is it easy to lift with the manual lift??

I adjusted the lift links. It sits about 4 inches off the ground now. 

 

No not really. It's not "60 inch mower deck heavy", but you know it's there for sure. I'm gonna add another hole in the hitch to slide it forward. It has a radiant for rotating to both sides but it won't get used that way here. I think that will lighten the leveraged load a bit on the lift arm. 

 

First test was the gravel driveway. Got rid of the studder bumps on the first pass. So far so good.

One of those came with the MF GC 23 I bought this spring.  Haven't had a chance to try it out yet, though.
