John Deere New Root Rakes
It seems Root Rakes are becoming ever so popular! As of January 26th, 2017 John Deere introduced their new line of Root Rakes that are designed to fit the John Deere G & E series skid steers, their compact tract loaders, and the K series compact wheel loaders.
These John Deere root rakes are great for a number of jobs such as digging up root of course, moving material, clearing all sorts of debris, loading logs just to name a few. One of the benefits of a root rake over a traditional bucket is that they are made so that loose dirt, small rocks and such can be sifted through creating a lighter load and minimal landscape disturbance. This is true for all root rakes not just John Deere rakes. Back to the John Deere rakes, these new root rakes are built with alloy-steel construction, replaceable pin-on teeth and zinc-plated, pivot pins with protected Zerks, these attachments can ruggedly resist impact that any ground materials provide. Another key feature is a weld-on “D” ring that expands the list of job site tasks these root rakes can tackle, such as pulling brush in forestry applications or scrap on a job site.
The new root rakes are in John Deere’s Worksite Pro attachment line and are avilable in 72 inch (RR72), 78 inch (RR78), and 84 inch (RR84) widths. The height and width of the root rakes also help shield the fronts of the machines, protecting against damage from large piles of brush or jagged scrap.
With the universal, self-cleaning Quik-Tatch™ easy attachment system found on all John Deere skid steers, CTLs and compact wheel loaders, the machine can easily add and remove the root rake in no time. The new attachment is also backed by John Deere parts, service and warranty coverage.
