With a working width of 7 metres, the BF-7000 double rotary rake is a great alternative to a towed rake. The BF-7000 is used for grain, grass and hay in varying quantities. The machine has a large working width, yet is compact during transport.
The quick changeover from field work to short transport length increases efficiency. Therefore, it is ideal for the farmer with several smaller fields, as it is quick to fold and unfold, making it very flexible.
The BF-7000 is built on 2 heavy-duty wheel suspensions. The Boogie system consists of 2 sets of 4 wheels each for a stable and smooth workflow. It has 4 large swivelling wheels and a flexible suspension under each rotor and together with the floating cylinders, it follows all terrains optimally.
The rotor is built on the same principle as our popular and proven TI models, consisting of an open curve control and nylon wheels, which makes it easy to service. Each rotor has a separate stepless height adjustment and is fitted with 9 arms with 3 rake springs each.
The machine has hydraulic folding/unfolding before and after transport. The transport option allows for a ground clearance of less than 4 metres and a width of 2.9 metres.
In brief: Compact, flexible and efficient.

The solid 3-point suspension is rolled in square profile tube, which ensures high strength and good design.
The heavy-duty bracket locks automatically when the machine is folded up in the transport position. Released mechanically with a pull cord.
Hydraulic flow divider ensures that the machine follows the terrain optimally.
Galvanised bolts with grease nipples ensure a long life.
The powerful T-gearbox is well protected in the main frame for optimised operation.
The rake has obvious yellow warning labels.
The rubber collar under each rotor protects the main shaft from dust, dirt, etc.
Large solid wheels with greaseable hubs.
4 swivelling wheels under each rotor.
The wheel frame under each rotor tilts in pairs and the wheels are staggered for maximum bearing surface.
The raking arm is set in transport and winter storage position.
The design of the heavy-duty main frame ensures a very stable machine.
The double-acting hydraulic cylinder runs smoothly during operation to ensure an optimal workflow.
Hydraulic operation of the transport lock: OPTIONAL EXTRA.
Galvanised handle with locking pawl is located outside the safety bars for easy access.
The curve control can be adjusted in 3 positions to achieve the best possible result depending on the type of crop you are working with.
The curve control can be adjusted in 3 positions to achieve the best possible result depending on the type of crop you are working with.
The moulded curve control with nylon-wheels has ball bearings for a long life and is designed to be very easy to service.
The PTO axle with spring-loaded coupling is well protected in the main frame.
The powerful linkage to the PTO axles ensures an optimal angle of the PTO in the different settings and the best possible angle of the PTO to the tractor.
The powerful linkage to the PTO axles ensures an optimal angle of the PTO in the different settings and the best possible angle of the PTO to the tractor.
Each rotor is driven by a powerful PTO shaft.
The powerful linkage to the PTO axle ensures an optimal angle of the PTO in the different settings and the best possible angle of the PTO to the tractor.
The moulded rotor ensures a very robust and stable machine.
The safety bars can be folded to reduce the overall height.
Tarpaulin swath cover with plastic stiffeners that automatically flip up during transport.
The rake folds hydraulically for transporting.
Galvanised cogwheel on top of the rotor for height adjustment of the desired rake height, separately for each rotor.
The raking arm is fitted with 3 rake springs via a special bracket, and the rake spring is bent to achieve maximum clearance when folding up.
As standard, the machine is fitted with a galvanised holder for hydraulic hoses to keep them off the ground.
Support legs with 2 feet at the rear of the machine ensure stable parking of the machine.
2 angled support legs at the front of the machine ensure stable parking. If the machine is parked in the transport position, it must be on a firm, level surface.
The rake is fitted with rubber pads that act as shock absorbers on the rotors when working with the machine.
Closed cup under each rotor protects and lubricates the spindle for rotor height adjustment.
Hydraulic cylinder for locking and releasing transport locks.
Ready for installation as standard.
