I have had a ratchet rake for almost 10 years now, and have found it a very useful tool for any number of uses. I certainly endorse your recommendation. I got it originally to push out brush in my Forest, predominantly multiflora Rose. And it does that quite well. You can get all kinds of tooth bars for the loader but they actually cut the saplings and the brush, not pull it out of the ground like I want. But I have found a real use for this tool in minor maintenance on my long gravel driveway. It is really good at getting out bumps and small ruts. It doesn't replace a box blade for heavy duty stuff, but it is great for small stuff. Indeed, I have used it so much that the lower teeth on the ratchet rake have been worn down about 50%. Sooner or later I'm going to have to get a new one.

Hey bud, yup I love mine too. Aside for the brush obviously, I also call it a poor man's tiller. I've torn up/graded/and prepped for seed with it a bunch of times, it's just a great tool.

I am surprised that it does not damage the cutting edge on the two mounting points. Great point about this taking up very little space. It looks like a great tool. I always drop a like and comment for every video I watch as I know what you mean about the KZfaq algorithm.

I assume most cutting edges are hardened steel. You indeed always leave a comment. I appreciate it Joseph. Our small “sub community” of YT’ers have some great people in it. You certainly being one of them. Much love 🙏

Nice video. A buddy of mine used one at his cabin. He liked it too. He issue was that he had a large stick come up and damage a ratchet on one of the straps. He bought a new ratchet and unbolted the straps from it and the damaged one. He then swapped them out and was good to go again.
@BuildALotAcres2 жыл бұрын
I could see big sticks being troublesome for sure. Glad he got it fixed up. Definitely a handy attachment. Thanks for watching and commenting Chris.

That’s a neat tool Case. But I’m surprised that the straps would hold it on. Just wondering can there be a strap in the middle. ? And can it be flipped so the bigger more aggressive teeth are on the bottom. Great video Case , thanks.
@BuildALotAcres2 жыл бұрын
There is a holder for a strap in the middle, but it only comes with two straps. The person I bought it from was the original owner. A friend of mine has a smaller Ratchet Rake that’s around 54-60” long, and his only has two strap holders. I wondered the same thing about the reversing it. I’m not sure. Maybe someone else who has one will know. Thanks for watching and commenting Noel :)

Sure, I will leave a comment. First, put your ROPS up. I have seen tractors rolled on flat ground... Second, as soon as I see a KZfaqr pandering for likes, comments, subscriptions, etc. I decide right then and there not to hit any of those buttons. If your content is good, I will, but not because you have to ask. Seems like EVERY video now.

This is too long! We get the idea that it can push and pull debris. What about the larger teeth? I didn’t have the time or patience to wait for that demo. Needs to be tightened up….a lot!
