Kuhn's Cyroraka turns haymaking upside down with the
3-in-1 rake, windrow inverter and tedder. Windrow
inversion is an essential process that not only allows hay to dry
faster, but also decreases leaf loss as it increases nutrient levels
Get the job done fast with a Kuhn Cyrorake It lets you match
rotor and ground speeds to your crop conditions for gentle,
efficient inverting.
But when It comes to Kuhn Cyrorakes, windrow inversion is just
part of the story. The CA series offers gentle, high speed raking
without roping. Side delivery enables you to double windrow
And if needed, the Cyrorake also is an effective tedder for
fluffing and drying hay.
Kuhn Cyrorake is also available with special features to make the
job go easier and faster Wide flotation balloon tires (standard
equipment) reduce ground pressure for more gentle treatment
of crop stubble. Optional bogie axle tames the roughest ground
The Kuhn CA series of single rotor rakes is available in working
widths of 10'6" to 13' And for really big operations, there's the
CA 7301 Twin Cyrorake with ad|ustable working widths from
21'4’ to 24'for raking up to 17 acres per hour
Kuhn Cyrorakes—taking a turn for the belter so you'll turn out
better hay.
