OverviewThe Frontier™ WR12 Series high-capacity wheel rakes are engineered for efficient hay raking and windrow formation across varied terrain. Offset tandem wheels and a range of conversion kits help maintain smooth, level operation and allow adaptation to crop and field conditions.
Key features- Offset wheels for smooth, level raking
- Hydraulic aftermarket kits available
- Rear crank for windrow width adjustment
- Optional center kicker wheel kits (two- or three-wheel)
- Narrow transport width: 2.6 m (8.5 ft) or less
Feature details- Offset wheels for smooth, level raking: Limited-oscillation offset tandem wheels maintain a stable ride over uneven ground such as irrigation tracks.
- Narrow transport width: Hydraulic opening and closing allow WR12 rakes to achieve transport widths of 2.6 m (8.5 ft) or less for safer road transport and easier gate access.
- Easy windrow width adjustment: A rear-mounted crank provides straightforward, tool-free adjustment of windrow width to match crop and baler requirements.
- Hydraulic aftermarket kits: Conversion kits provide hydraulic couplers (not standard on WR1212, WR1214, WR1216, WR1218) and options for hydraulic open/close raking arms to reduce manual work.
- Center kicker wheel conversion kits: Two- or three-wheel kits move crop toward the center to improve drying and increase baler pickup efficiency by collecting material missed by the rake wheels.
- Wind panel conversion kits: Includes one wind panel with hardware for short or very dry crops that can blow through standard rake wheels.
- Wheel conversion kits: Tandem-wheel and extra-wheel kits improve ride on rough fields; two-wheel add-on kits can extend raking width (e.g., convert WR1214 to WR1216); extra wheels support wing ends and reduce over-engagement.
- Rake beam support wheel kit: Adds support at the front corner of each beam (WR1214 and WR1216) to improve float over irrigation tracks and uneven ground. When ordering a quantity of one, two wheels are shipped (one for each side of the beam).
