Tool bar for farm store de-thacher
I ditched the wheel and up-down lever and built a sleeve hitch type tool bar to mount the de-thatcher on. This way I can operate it from the drivers seat with out having to twist myself into a pretzel or dismount to raise the unit to cross drives, sidewalks or streets plus you can back into corners and tight spots you otherwise could not access with a tag along unit.
Works really slick with a hydraulic lift and two 45# weights centered on the deck
Be tween me and my neighbors we did about 75,000 square feet in a few hours with my 1450 and they followed up with their sweepers.
Will consider building these for sale if there is enough interest.
Sleeve hitch (which I can also build) and 3 point required.
