That's a really cool rake from a really cool company! Aebi makes tractors for extreme hillside use. Both a compact type tractor & a two wheeled tractor. They still make a belt rake for the two wheeled tractor but not for the other ones. Thanks for posting this!
what I remember Aebi didn't make does themselves they ordered them from someone else but might of been assembled by them in Burgdorf at there factory. We had a Aebi walk behind very good mower mainly used to cut green feed and some hill sides too.
@@839Unipicker nice, must of been before they stopped making there own models. I do know of two other Swiss manufactures of those types of rakes one of them I met in person he also manufactures tractors Sepp Knuesel (Rigitrac is his tractor brand) and the other is Bartholet. Ya can also use those rakes as a tedder as well if one side is set a little higher. Awesome videos by the way keep them videos coming
I've seen those before, at a farm show IIRC... think I even have a brochure for one somewhere. Might not be the same company, maybe another company bought the rights to it or built their own version... Can't recall. Interesting machine. Gets the job done. Simpler than a rotary rake in a lot of ways.
There are a few of those rakes around. My next door neighbor has/had one. He liked it except for the hooking up and unhooking part. His dad does the raking and prefers this old Minneapolis Moline bar rake they have...
There was a distributor in Pennsylvania that offered the JF belt rakes in the 90s, and somebody is currently distributing Molon belt rakes. There's at least one other brand out there now, too. It's just that this is an Aebi and they have had representatives for the steep slope tractors here but they targeted municipal/commercial customers, so the hay making attachments supposedly weren't sold here. I wish I knew how it came to Connecticut before it was traded to a dealer in New Jersey.
Although i have used it in a tube successfully to seal a pinhole, TireJect doesn't recommend it as it won't always work. If something is stuck in the tire, I need to find it from the inside anyway.
Nice

The little aluminum pillow blocks that bolt to the belts do have 'AEBI' cast into them.
