Poly Shield
The DARF Poly-Shield™ is the latest innovation from Nikkel Iron Works. Made of rugged poly material, it is designed to withstand the rigors of severe weather and harsh raking conditions. The six section reinforced design easily assembles and mounts to any DARF rake wheel. The overlapping configuration of each piece allows the Poly-Shield™ to securely fit up flat & flush with the rake wheel, leaving no room for hay to get in between the wheel and shield. The front side is smooth and the back side is ribbed for reinforcement & strength. Special additives have been added to the poly to help reduce static discharge that is common with plastic. Patented The DARF Poly-Shield™ is available on all DARF Rakes. It is also available as a replacement part item for all DARF & Morrill rakes as well as most older Farm-hand rakes.
Full Dress hydraulics — complete hydraulic control of rake
The DARF FD Model hay rake allows the operator to perform all functions from the tractor cab. Large, easy-to-use toggle switches on the fingertip controls open and close the rake, change raking angles and raise and lower raking wheels. At the heart of the FD is the Fasse 5 function electro/hydraulic control valve. This valve allows for left side/right side independent operation of the raking angle and lifting of the raking wheels so the operator can quickly adjust to changing conditions while raking. The control panel disconnects for quick removal. The FD model requires 12-volt access and just one set of hydraulic remotes.
