- what's up everyone! so we did a thing, we bought a new PR184 power rake attachment for our CAT 257D Track Skid Steer. Purchased this brand new through our local CAT dealer. This is the first tine we have used one, so still learning lots. Using it to level topsoil and mulch up some grass thats wet with dew.

I’ve been running one of these for fifteen years. Same unit but the 6’ model. Best thing I ever did was go to my cat dealer and get another set of wings so I always have front and back wings on. Every once in a while I’ll take off a front wing to backfill a trench or windrow rocks on really long runs. Otherwise you always want the wings. Foam fill the ties too. Best attachment I’ve ever bought. Made lotsa money with that baby
I bought my power rake 18 years ago best thing I ever bought for my skid steer saves so much time and labor you won’t regret it
love to hear that
Looks like a very time saving tool that will make the final product very attractive the customers. Love it!! Great video! Power rake it!!
We have one that's called a rock hound but has a clam bucket attached to the unit. Screens and smooths the soil and collects the rocks at the same time, then dump into the truck, best thing ever.
I’ll check that out!

Cat makes one like that.
@@KenWhiteConstruction Cat does make a model that picks up rocks.
Who wants to haul rocks away on every job
Harley rake is the way to go
I rented one recently for a lawn renovation. Did a nice job and i had similar windrow issues. I made two passes 90 degrees from each other to level the yard. Maybe those box guards could be on electric swivels to orientate them between forward and reverse.
ya I agree if they were power that would great
Great video and great tool! I could be wrong on this but I am pretty sure that they are made to be used in the forward direction most effectively, at least as far as grading is concerned. There is another landscaper that I follow who is really skilled and he claims that is the case. I have done this work for over 20 years and have about 15 employees at the moment and I still learn new things all the time. I appreciate your humility when you said, "we probably did some things wrong". That is exactly the right attitude I think and too many in our field are so full of ego that they think they have a monopoly on best practices. At the end of the day, we are all learning on the fly to some degree. Great video and I hope your season is going well with all the craziness that 2020 brought us.
It is a great tool. I am sure by now you have figured it out. Put pressure on the front wheels and raise up the front of the machine slightly and just brush the dirt on the fine grade pass
Great videos. I bought one of those two years ago. They work great.
awesome, I'm exited to keep using it
Power Rake it!!!! I use mine a lot with rap. Works very very well!! Good investment for the future!!
Awesome to hear
Processed too.
I believe it’s recommended to do it all one direction, then do it in the direction perpendicular to what you just did, for a little bit of extra grading. Pretty sure Dirt Ninja touches on this in one of his vids.
awesome! thats cool! ill check it out
Use your bucket tilt to put more weight on the wheels, does a much better grading ground that way, we always use it for driveways
this is exactly the type of stuff I wanted to hear!
@@KenWhiteConstruction they are great attachments but you can't throw just anyone in the loader to run it. The cat looks simpler than ours. We had a bobcat that it's own depth wheels on it's own cylinder on a walking beam that worked great for knocking down piles or running along a berm. Also had the pivot but you could roll your bucket out and pull the gauge wheels up a bit and pivot it to throw material to the inside of a driveway and get an amazing berm on driveways.
Grading driveways with stone?
@@howardpavingexcavating6450 yes, usually we would use 1/2 in crusher run so we'd pack it once we were done but I used it to level out anything and we would use it for derocking fields
Great video and content. Love Harley rake,...
POWER RAKE IT you all did a great job today
Power rake it. Another awsome vid!!
Power rake! Just bought our first PTO powered tiller for the tractor. Equally as awesome for this stuff.
so cool!
Nice 👍 but why doesn’t it come with four side plates so you don’t have to swap them every time you change direction?
Power rake it!! More efficient than the skid and shovel!! Good luck with it
Thanks John
Power rake it awesome video nice bit of kit
It works really well if you put your arms in float
great idea
I just ran across your channel and it's pretty cool! From Raleigh, NC... Power Rake It!
Power rake it !!!!
And you need tips talk to Elite Earthworks. He uses his alot and if it can make that soil look good then you made a good investment.
And if Kenny is 81 what's that make me 🤯
Hahaha
I have one pto drive on tractor.i think it works Alot better than on the skid steer
Power Rack it. Keep pushing that content to the limit
Power raking it thanks again for another awesome show I really enjoyed watching this show it looks like it's a also machine and it gets the job done I don't know much about the machine but like I said it looks like it's a awesome machine to get the job done and it doesn't Pretty job but thank you for another awesome video I love watching and I will be watching the next video when it comes out

You guys rock! 🇺🇸🇨🇦
Once you get the hang of that rake you can do some amazing things your job to look 10 times better
That is a Harley Rake, built by Paladin, Cat just stuck thier name on it. I own one and use it regularly, it's an awesome attachment.
Yes it is!
Power rake it! Awesome video brother! I need to come try it out, I’ve never ran a power rake just my preparator lol! I wish I could give you some tips but I got nothing, I would like to buy a power rake though! Great job guys!
thanks Brandon! you the man!!
Ken White Construction lol thanks I don’t know about that
#powerrakeit! Never would have thought a power rake definitely a good buy.
Power rake it!
Box blade it!!...need to get yourself a box blade with laser level. Can use for grading out dirt or stone and put a laser on it and u will be dead nuts...at least we are in the states!!
BRADCO EXCAVATING INC
Thanks man!
leaving the job site looking great with that Power Rake it.. another job we'll done great job so go get that sir discount coffee from Tim Hortons..
Haha
That power rake it a good set of kit good Video
Is the Edge with Dual Direct motors better?
Rewatched!
Power rake it. Sure looks smooth, that will cover your tracks.
Badass!
Power rake it!!!
Pull the front wheels off. Learn how to use it without... backing up while taking makes a seamless fluffy seed bed with no tire marks
Thank you for that!
Ok you got me hooked I gotta subscribe now it's great to see people having fun at work that's a great attachment used them also just remember slower is better.. Rock on from Kentucky USA
Power rake it! Wish I could get this for my own yard haha
Excellent work tool ! 🇦🇺😉🙂👍
Power rake it!! Loved the video
thank you!
They tell me the Bobcat pier rake is better design & better built
I bought a brand new rake for my JD. $10,000 usd. Works like a charm.
That’s a great price
Makes the job easier taking and grading. Power rake it.
Ya you bet!
I don't understand the purpose. A dirt bucket will level dirt out better than you just creating a mud slide when water hits it.
power rake it (we call it harley raking here in Michigan)
I’ve hear people say that around here
Oh yeah power rake it
Nice tool!
89 degrees in Bloomington Indiana this week all week
Wow! Now I’m jealous of that
Power Rake It!!!!
Really enjoyed that man! Watched it twice! Power rakes are great you will love it...If you would could you let me know what editing software your using now.. I've out grown GoPro studio..
Thanks in advance
Dirt Boss Tri-County Masonry & Excavating he’s using Adobe Premiere Elements. I’ve got it as well easy to use 👍🏻
@@eliteearthworksllc thanks Brandon! 👍
adobe premier pro actually, not sure if thats the same as elements but its what I use
Ken White Construction of course cause you are a pro 😎🤣
Thanks for the update!
maybe invest in kubota skid steers... the front windshield pulls up and back. way better then the cat.
Kubotas are complete and utter trash. Its why they are so cheap
So far we love ours
@@williamuskoski1385 never had an issue with ours... and alot of other companies use the kubota engines... soooooo.. really just need to upkeep it so they stay nice. also my kubota never just dies under heavy loads like the cats and takeuchies tend to do.. but all in all it comes to your own opinions i guess.. but we love ours and ours have been tried and true.. ive ran cats, takeuchies and kubotas and kubota is by far my favorite.. great cab design. you can see everything and they dont break the bank. just put oil in it and change your fluids like you should and they should last forever
Power Rake It!
Power Rake It!!
what is the cost you charge per ? sq ft. etc?
Good video! Power rake it
Thanks man!
Love the Video! Powerrake It!!!
Power take it
I need one! How much in US currently?

Hows you get all the grass out? Or does it all just get mixed right into the dirt?
Power rake it !

Do it right call White!
You got that right!
Power rake it!!
Power Rake It.

Power rack it !!

Power Rake It
Power rake it 😁
Wen you doing top soil like that take off the wheels on the front/power raking
Someone else mentioned this, I’m going to try it
Power rake it
I watched your video in 240K, Ultra 240...
Yes!!!
I build these things everyday
so it fishes out bigger rocks and makes the dirt fluffy?
essentially yes but it also does a lot more, we just have to get better at it
Do they not provide a manual with this piece of kit???????? Cheers
They do! But we watched a CZcams video, more visual learners lol
Cool stuff. However, the Instagram handle is pretty annoying as it’s there throughout the whole video. Perhaps just promote it at the start and end?
Chatta290 bro it’s size 10 words in the bottom corner, perhaps watch Taylor instead of looking at the Instagram name the whole video
haha ya I dont see the issue either, I guess it did its job because it got you to comment and you noticed it.
Ken White Construction can’t help it, I hate having any overlays, same with anything, perhaps if it was lower it wouldn’t be much of an issue but watching it on a a big device, it’s all I can focus on. You are lucky SupremeNoHp to not pick up on every detail, this sort of stuff is a bother to me. Just my opinion anyway, have a good day.
Are you guys in float when using that?
Power rake it, can it be used on a large garden? Have a good weekend.
To go deep you need a tiller.
To go deep you need a tiller.
Power rake it buddy
Nice Cat also makes a model that picks up the stones also.
Ya landscape box rake I think
Yeah the rockhounds.. minty
power rake it, from Ruskin FL
Second comment
you bet Dante!
You need to put some better warning lights on that truck of yours.
Totally agree
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
#powerrakeit
All I can say is wow it’s gonna be a mess when it rains.
we shall see
Power raken
Boy they saw y'all coming from a mile off and then laughed all the way to bank when they dumped that thing off on you...... Yep, I'd really like all that loose dirt with tire tracks everywhere in it no matter if you're coming or going..........
Guys the secret is a new Power Rake
hey thats a secret
Next time, shoot the video in complete darkness.
Power Rake it, or do you even rake it.......That's what she said XD
hahah thanks for watching the entire video
It cuts your final grade time in half, I rough it in with the bucket--all good.
Ya exactly!
I don't appreciate you using God and Jesus name like that and disrespect if you're going to cuss someone's name cuss your own. Besides that great video
totally respect your religious views, im sorry for offending you in that way. my personal views on religion allow me to not look at saying that stuff in a bad way. I will be more cautious of this. thanks for the positive feedback.
Skip it. Virtually no content. Mostly just crappy, free house music.
