Abstract
A hay rake moveable between a rake position and a transport position. A frame assembly supported by an axle and wheels carries two sets of fingerwheel hay rakes which are rotatable on an axis positioned transversely to the axle. A hitch assembly which is connected to a towing vehicle is pivotedly connected to the frame. A connecting linkage is provided between the hitch assembly and the frame and a power source is connected to the frame for rotating the wheel rakes about their axis and rotating the frame relative to the hitch assembly thereby rotating the rakes between a downward and outward rake position and an upward and inward transport position.
