Description

The Vermeer VRB14 Bi-Fold Wheel Rake is a high-capacity 14-wheel rake designed for efficient hay handling across broad fields. Equipped with standard 60-inch rake wheels, the VRB14 provides a maximum raking width of 28.5 feet while its bifold frame hydraulically opens and closes from the tractor cab for convenient field operation and transport. Toolless ground-pressure adjustment and toolless ratchet-lever windrow adjustment help operators adapt the rake to changing field and crop conditions, while individual-wheel steel-spring flotation supports consistent ground contact. With a drawbar hitch, standard highway lights and safety chain, and optional features such as single-side raking, wind discs and a center splitter, the Vermeer VRB14 is built for high-capacity windrow formation and practical road transport.

Efficient High-Capacity Raking

The VRB14 combines 14 rake wheels with a maximum raking width of 28.5 feet to cover a substantial area in each pass. Its 60-inch rake wheels feature 40 teeth per wheel, helping gather crop into adjustable windrows from 36 to 72 inches wide. The bifold frame is designed for ground clearance and crop flow, and the rake opens and closes hydraulically from the tractor cab to simplify transitions between field work and transport.

Adjustable Operation

Toolless ground-pressure adjustment allows the operator to set the rake for the working conditions, while a toolless ratchet-lever adjustment provides convenient windrow-width control. An optional hydraulic windrow-width adjustment circuit is available for applications requiring hydraulic control. Individual rake-wheel steel-spring flotation supports the rake as it follows the field surface. Optional rake-wheel wind discs, single-side raking and a center splitter provide additional configuration choices.
