- Neil tackles the next task on his honey do list. After prepping a new lawn in late June, he was left with a few less than ideal conditions in his lawn. In order to smooth things out, and remove some rocks, he chose to use a Harley Rake. Neil discusses the different ways it can be setup, and how it works in varying conditions.

Seven years running a 7' harley rake have taught me going forward is preferable to going in reverse. The ability to control the depth and overall level is better. The rocks and other debris are pushed away, saving broken windshields. Using a perpendicular pattern also smooths the variations in areas being leveled. Thanks for the work that you put into your videos Neil, they are both informative and entertaining. Paul
Great coverage of these products. I took delivery of a new skid loader with a Harley rake yesterday. Just going through that learning curve
Nice rig. I avoid lawn work like painting, but it's nice to know there's a cool tool for it if needed. Actually I've been filling some low spots, but it's a rural place and not manicured, so spreading soil with FEL and letting the winter even it out. In the spring I'll overseed if the existing meadowgrass hasn't filled it in before I get to it. Sure wish you guys were nearby, I'd consider renting that attachment.
Thanks for the education and Congrats on the 100K!
I got one for my bobcat mt100 brand I love using it for regrading hourse Arena Indoor
Just sold my L3301. I’m thinking that a SCL may be my next toy! Nice machine.
I need to smooth out the areas I mow on the property.
Personal preference I always run Harley forward when going in reverse. I can’t stand flipping it backwards. Don’t get very good depth in my opinion
Thank you for the video
I want a tractor so badly !!
Might want to put on some safety glasses while running in reverse? Just an observation. 🤔
What is a ballpark price on one for a three point hitch? Probably 72” with remotes for angling.
Can you post a link to that initial prep/seeding video? All i remember is that I liked the flavor of Scott's grass seed but I don't remember what it was, thanks.
All the videos are on our channel, I did not use Scott's grass seed you may be thinking of somebody else.
I need to redo at least an acre of grass that is covered by a dozen trees. Really rough ground, can launch off my tractor if I go too fast. Would need something like this for my 3PH. I don't want to till it, too many roots to contend with, so would something like this, or similar work? Either B2410 or L4060 (if the loader ever shows up).
Yea, probably best to rent one though.
I would recommend adding top soil on top of existing grass. Use the harley rake to fill the low spots, avoiding disturbing the existing sod. My harley rake will grind sod into soil and root matter, but it us a slow process. It's faster and cheaper to add soil and level. That is if you value your time and the cost of fuel. Good luck with your project. Paul
@@bendermanufacturing I would but there is also a lot of undesireables in some areas that will be getting a strong dose of 2,4D. Going to take a lot of work, especially in the back where the new septic is going in. Some areas will need a new top layer of soil, especially around the trees, some areas need a rip out and renew. Some just need smoothing.
@@acdii if you are in the Chattanooga area and want to hire it out. I got the equipment and skills.
@@acdii Adding topsoil to tree roots is a waste of money. They'll be back in 2-3 years, especially if it's a shallow rooted tree like elm or maple.
