Specificstions
Single-Rotor Rake
Excellent raking quality, easy handling and a durable design – these qualities give you good reason to buy a Massey Ferguson single-rotor rake.
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. 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. 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.
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.
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. In addition, this results in precise centering and stability for a long service life. The tine arms can be replaced individually as required, without having to completely dismantle the rake socket.
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.
Depositing on the right – makes ergonomic sense!
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.
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.
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. If there is wear, not all of the tines need to be removed to change the inner tines. In addition, the tines have greater freedom of movement, because they are not limited by the tube.
Tine Support
All Massey Ferguson 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 on this heavily stressed point to a minimum. In addition, this design makes repairs quick and easy when they are required.
Two-Rotor or Four-Rotor Rake
These days, large rakes are key machines in the forage harvesting chain – a failure can result in the stoppage of other harvesting machinery, and could be the cause of large cost implications and disruptions. You should therefore entertain no compromises with your new rake. Massey Ferguson has combined its years of experience with the latest technical knowledge and, from these, developed a range of high performance large-scale rakes.
The practical features that all machines share are:
- Robust construction
- Ease of operation
- Outstanding raking quality
Tangentially Arrange Rotor Arms
Rake Heads
The rake heads are a key component on any rake. Due to their enclosed construction, the heads can be relied on to protect all important components from dirt and dust and guarantees a long service life. The optimised shape of the cam track provides smooth running and quick, precise lifting of the tines.
SteerGUARD
Massey Ferguson offers a patented steering system for the rake which operates within the frame. This steering system provides reliable precise steering in all conditions. The steering shaft is protected against damage by the frame and, unlike externally located steering rods, has only two pivot points. As a result accurate steering and safety is guaranteed, even after years of use.
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.
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. Furthermore, this type of steering guarantees smooth running even at high speeds. As a result, safe and quick travel from field to field is possible at a speed of up to 50 km/h.*

Perfect Ground Adaption
The patented, fully cardanic rotor suspension from Massey Ferguson 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. As a result, forage lying in recesses and depressions can be recovered without loss.
Damage to the sward 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.
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.
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.
Two-Rotor Central Delivery Rake
Automatic working width pre-selection, tidy raking work, precisely deposited swaths and quick and safe travel from field to field, are all offered by the MF RK 662, MF RK 762, MF RK 802 and MF RK 1002 two-rotor central delivery rakes. They can master any working situation. With the optional 6-wheel contact-sensing chassis and the cardanic suspension of the rotors, tidy and loss-free raking work is always achieved. The best starting point for your high quality forage.
Convenience of Operation
MF RK 662 TRC, MF RK 762 TRC, MF RK 802 TRC and MF RK 1002 TRC
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. The working width can be selected in four different dimensions, providing maximum convenience.
Patented technology ensures 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.
PRO Models
MF RK 802 TRC PRO and MF RK 1002 TRC PRO
The new rotor chassis on the MF RK 802 PRO and MF RK 1002 PRO has been equipped with six wheels and with a tandem axle with 18-inch tyres for optimum performance. 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. The clearance between tines and the leading wheel was also reduced in order to guarantee a top-quality swath , creating perfect conditions for the baler.
Two-Rotor Side Delivery Rake
MF RK 702 TR-SDX, MF RK 662 SD-TRC, MF RK 772 SD-TRC, MF RK 842 SD-TRC and MF RK 842 SD-TRC PRO
Massey Ferguson side delivery rakes provide the perfect flexible solution in all terrains. With these rakes it is possible to deposit two narrow swaths, one large swath or a double swath by making a return pass. The switchover and working width can be adjusted easily and within seconds. Large overlaps between rotors ensure a tidy forage transfer and swath formation even under difficult working conditions.
The versatile drawbar mounted MF RK 702 TR-SDX model has a transport width of less than 3m with the tines mounted for fast field-to-field movements. Whilst on the transport chassis models the lowest folded height is always ensured irrespective of the set working width.
Four-Rotor Central Delivery Rake
MF RK 1254 TRC-EC, MF RK 1254 TRC, MF RK 1254 TRC-PRO and MF RK 1404 TRC-PRO
With four rotors and working widths of 12.5 and 14m these high capacity rakes provide the optimum swath for large square balers and self-propelled forage harvesters.
These models were specifically developed for large –scale farms, contractors and inter-farm use. 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.
Headland Control System
The MF RK 1254 TRC is equipped with an automatic hydraulic sequential control system which can be adapted to your requirements. This system controls the delayed raising and lowering of the rear pair of rotors and enables you to deposit perfectly-formed swaths at the headland.
The MF RK 1254 TRC-PRO and MF RK 1404 TRC-PRO feature full ISOBUS operation of all rake functions for the ultimate in control and convenience.
Safety
The MF RK 1254 TRC, MF RK 1254 TRC-PRO and MF RK 1404 TRC-PRO are designed for a transport speed of up to 50 km/h*, which ensures quick journeys from field to field. In order to be safe at all times when travelling, the machine is equipped with a high performing air brake system, which allows you to carry out difficult operations in hillside situations. Due to the low centre of gravity, safe transportation is also guaranteed.
For customers whose application does not require a air braking system to be fitted, the MF RK 1254 TRC EC is also available without brakes and with the option of hydraulic brakes
