Technology & Innovation
Rake Head
The enclosed rake head from Massey Ferguson protects all of the important components against dirt and dust. This design is a guarantee of a long service life.
Cam Track
The optimised shape of the cam track, which is made of spheroidal graphite cast iron, provides maximum smooth running and quick, precise lifting of the tines.
Modern and Proven Design
The large-dimensioned drive unit and the precision-manufactured tine arm housing made of aluminium alloy, are both good examples of a modern and proven design.
Swath Deposit to the Right
All Massey Ferguson single-rotor rakes place the swath to the right. This way, you always have your perfect swath in view as the tractor operating controls are on the right.
Special Bolt-On Connection
The rake head is bolted together using a conical ring to form a sturdy unit. This has the advantage that the bolts are not subjected to any shearing effect, but rather only to compressive and tensile forces.
Tine Support
All MF tine supports are made of sturdy tube material and are manufactured from one piece of metal. The connection point to the tine arm is machined for a perfect fit, which makes it possible to insert the tine arms easily, and reduces wear to a minimum.
Tine Fixture
The tines are not pushed over the tine tube, instead each tine is screwed in from the bottom. The advantage of this is that the side of the arm facing the forage is absolutely smooth and therefore does not allow forage to stick to it.
Perfect Working Height
The linear height adjustment, which is fitted as standard, can very easily and conveniently adapt to the working height and your ground conditions.
Tangentially Arranged Tine Arms
Best raking quality is achieved with the tangential arrangement of the tine arms, creating an ideal swath. It makes significantly higher working speeds possible – the best pre-requisites if the harvesting weather is not in your favour.
Power Train
All power trains in the Massey Ferguson rakes are equipped with overload protection. This prevents expensive repairs and long downtimes during the forage harvesting season.

Cam Track
The optimised shape of the cam track, which is made of spheroidal graphite cast iron, provides maximum smooth running and quick, precise lifting of the tines.
Jet Effect
Due to the fully cardanic rotor suspension and weight distribution of the rotor, the rotor lifts first at the front and then at the back. When lowered, the rear wheels of the rotor first make contact with the ground followed by the front wheels.
Hilly Terrain Adaptation
Damage to the swath by the tines is safely avoided even in hilly terrain. With Massey Ferguson, tidy raking work is always achieved without forage loss – resulting in top quality forage.
Fully Cardanic Rotor Suspension
The Fully Cardanic Rotor Suspension ensures perfect ground adaptation even under the most difficult of working conditions. The rotor can adapt itself perfectly to the ground and independently of the frame, whether inclined longitudinally or transversely.
No Ground Penetration
In this way, the tines are prevented from penetrating into the ground. No penetration, no damage to the sward, no forage contamination – top quality forage.
SteerGUARD
MF offers a patented steering system for the rake which operates within the frame. The steering shaft is protected against damage by the frame and, unlike externally located steering rods, has only two pivot points.
SteerGUARD - Steering Movement
The steering movement is transferred from the steering shaft to the wheels with the aid of the stub axle steering with adjustable track rods. The track rods are fitted with high-precision conical heads to ensure durability over many years of use.
SteerGUARD - Direct Transmission of Steering Movement
The key benefit of this steering system design lies in the positive and direct transmission of the steering movement. The rake always runs exactly in the track of the tractor and is at the same time, still extremely agile.
Tangentially Arranged Tine Arms
Best raking quality is achieved with the tangential arrangement of the tine arms, creating an ideal swath. It makes significantly higher working speeds possible – the best pre-requisites if the harvesting weather is not in your favour.
Automatic Height Limitation
The lowest transport height is always achieved regardless of the pre-selected working width. Because of the automatic height limitation in the headland position, it is no longer necessary to switch off the tractor PTO on headland turns.
Adjustable Working Width
The working width can be adjusted without tools and, combined with the externally adjustable control cam, enables the creation of an optimum swath for the machines following on behind.
PRO Models
The new rotor chassis on the MF RK 802 PRO has been equipped with six wheels and with a tandem axle with 18-inch tyres for optimum performance.
PRO Models - Twin Leading Wheels
The twin leading wheels were also redesigned to be larger and rigid in order to guarantee smooth running even under difficult conditions in a stubble field.
Four-Rotor Rakes Construction
The simple yet extremely robust construction of the MF Four-Rotor Rakes mean they are easy-to-operate for increased flexibility when used on more than one farm.
