thats great, never saw the rake used with gravel that big, thanks for sharing
Wow! I want one of those! Along with a million other things... That's the trouble with owning equipment, the possibilities are endless!
Yes sir
Run the boom in float and control the fine height adjustment by your bucket crowd lever,
put your boom in float and use the dump/tilt control to get the correct depth of cut. this removes that control from you and you can focus more on just using the one function to set depth and contour.
Thanks
Love the camerq view, i love the way it eats up the gravel too..
That is some serious equipment there, Brock. It's going to do a lot of tough work for you, and it's looking like you are getting the hang of it!
Thanks for watching
That thing looks like it can be a little aggressive at times, but that why it's a good tool, so there's that. Nice video.
Thanks
Looks great....awesome attachment. I can see you making some cash with that skill!
I hope so…. And I’ll find out if it ever quits raining
Great job. I just purchased mine. Can't wait to use it. Thanks for the video.
Love the rake!
Watched, Subscribed, Liked. Shared... love the skid steer with rake attachment! I love driveway repair, please share more! Good video and commentary!
Thanks
@@RockhillfarmYTThanks for sharing! I absolutely love driveway repairs using Harley rakes, box blade, land leveler... My favorite videos to watch! Happy New Year! I want more of these in 2024!
Great Job, just keep doing it and you'll master it, look how far you've come 👍👍
A lot has changed in the last year
It’s only been two years since I bought my tractor.
Thank you for following along Rodney
If you angle the rake to the next position on the left it will help you build and maintain your driveway crown
That sounds like what I should’ve done on the long section of the driveway. It’s hydraulic angling
Think about the land planes for skid steers that have box blade type teeth you can raise or lower. Your power rake does not run as deep but does the same thing except a much better job of mixing. Try doing your mixing and rough grading with the power rake and finish with the grader blade which is a really wonderful simple tool when you learn it.
I think it’s pretty cool Brock and yes you do make it look easy I’ve never run one but after seeing you dress up your driveway I want to get one someday great video brother
Thanks
Great Video again. With pot holes and cut water paths....think of a pot hole as a bowl in the ground...if you throw rock into that bowl and drive over it..eventually you will bounce all the rock back out of that bowl and it will appear again. You have to take that rock out..pack the hole with material and cover it with rock again...same thing with the channels that water cuts. All that presuming that the power rake did not cut the bowl/channels completely out..which it did not look like it did...though im sure you could go deeper with it. Looking forward to the next one!!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it
It looks good enough for the girls I go with! 🤠
Right
When you put the rake down , put it on the wheels first and tilt it back to the drum
I call it chasing wind rows. Either take less material in a pass, or take another pass over the rows just touching the rows. Once you get the hang of it, you can fill in the low spots with the wind rows on the final pass. You can try the float mode in the loader, but I hate it for grade work.
Thanks for the tips
"The good ones always make whatever they're doing look easy."
--Rush Limbaugh
Exactly right. I always see a pro doing some thing and think I could do the same thing.
Usually harder than it looks
Your doing fine but as a observation watch this video again and pay attention to the wheels on the front. If your backing up and the wheels are swaying stop and look at the rake you need to roll the rake more forward. I use float while backing up and paying attention to the front wheels. Once you see it, it will make sense but overall your doing great keep it up. Just take seat time is all.
Thanks for the tips. The biggest struggle for me was getting the angle right like you’re describing and once I’m going I don’t like to change the angle too much or there’s a hump at the spot I made the change
Set the curl function to where the guide wheels and roller make contact at the same time and set your lift cylinders in float mode
Thanks for the tip
Your going to dep and go forward
You ain't kidding re learning curve and it looks a lot easier than it is.
How much does you skidsteer weigh? Does it feel like it's beating the tar out of your JD. My skidpro soil conditioner feels like it's really hard on my ToolCat.
It weighs 9400 pounds. The Harley rake does not affect it much. Just a matter of getting a smooth grade.
If you keep getting more attachments you'll need another Quonset Hut soon.
Right.
I use a land leveler after I do a job with the power rake
Interesting.
Thanks for sharing
Rome was not built in a day. Practice makes perfect.
Thanks
@@RockhillfarmYT Just like any other things. The more you do it the better you will be able to get it done.

Had an acquaintance in college, whose father was associated as Russian organized crime group of gentlemen. They would have loved to have this setup to make collecting on a late debt more efficient or deleting it from future complications, altogether 😳😊
Thank you for sharing
Way to think outside the box for potential uses
Hey brock go to you tube and typ in how to use a power rake there's lots of videos
What size was the gravel?
I mostly get 2 inch down to dust.
Occasionally I will put some bigger rock or 1 inch clean down
You are going to have a window. Just smooth it out.
