Built with heavy-duty components, rubber-mounted rake teeth, large caster-type wheels, and hydraulic rake- and windrow-width adjustment, the R2300 is suited to haymaking operations that require efficient field coverage and flexible windrow formation. Its drawbar hitch, 35 hp minimum PTO requirement, and defined hydraulic requirements make it suitable for compatible tractors equipped for hydraulic implement operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEfficient Twin-Basket Raking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R2300 uses hydraulically driven baskets to gather forage into windrows while allowing the operator to adjust the rake and windrow widths hydraulically. The working width can be set from 18 ft to 23 ft, while the windrow width can range from 36 in to 72 in. This provides flexibility for different crop conditions, field layouts, and downstream hay-handling requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRubber-mounted rake teeth are designed to support consistent crop gathering, while the grease-free windrow-width slide adjustments help simplify routine adjustment. Large caster-type wheels support field operation and transport, and the 9.5 ft (2.9 m) baskets provide the working structure for the twin-rake design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e18–23 ft (5.5–7.0 m) adjustable raking width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e36–72 in (91.4–182.9 cm) adjustable windrow width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHydraulically driven baskets\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRubber-mounted rake teeth\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHydraulic rake- and windrow-width adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrease-free windrow-width slide adjustments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge caster-type wheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e120 tines and six bars per basket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrawbar hitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptional powered center splitter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptional basket speed control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptional highway lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRaking and Windrow Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe adjustable raking width allows the R2300 to cover between 18 ft and 23 ft per pass.
