2018 Bridgeview Bale King VR Series Hay Rakes VR683 Supersteer Rake

Cut your turning radius in half with the Bale King VR683 Supersteer Rake!

The 683 pivots around the center wheels instead of the rear casters, allowing it to handle like a rake half its size.

The 683 is available in 3 sizes: 18 wheels (34'), 20 wheels, (38'), or 22 wheels (42').

• All Bale King VR-series rakes feature 62 diameter rake wheels: 15% larger than the industry standard of 55. As a result, Bale King rake wheels roll easier and perform better in heavy crops. Because they turn slower, theyre also easier on fragile crops.

• Bale King rakes feature 48 tines per wheel: 20% more than the industry standard of 40. With closer spaced tines comes better flotation and better ground coverage in fine crops.

• Tines are individually replaceable with only one bolt, and a single tine can be replaced in about a minute. Wind guards are standard on all models.

• Bridgeviews patented rake wheel spring is a long-lasting, zero-maintenance system which provides exceptionally smooth rake wheel flotation. Bale King rake wheels float gently across the ground and can tolerate uneven terrain.

• Smoother flotation results in less wear and tear on moving components and fewer broken or bent tines.

• Bale King rakes feature Automatic Width Compensation. On other rakes, changing the windrow width normally results in decreased raking width. On Bale King Rakes, full raking width is maintained regardless of the windrow width setting. Hydraulic windrow width adjustment is standard.

• Compared to most rakes on the market, Bale King rakes feature heavier main frame construction: 5? x 5? tubing.

• No moving parts on a Bale King rake undergo dry steel-on-steel wear: all rotating and sliding joints are either grease-able or protected by polymer bushings.

• Road transport mode combines safety with ease-of-use with a narrow profile and a clear line of sight from the cab to the wheels. Transport width for all models is only 106?.

• Road lights, reflective decals, and safety chains are standard.
