YZONA 60" 3 Point Rock Rake for Tractors, Heavy-Duty Landscape Rake with 360° Rotation, Category 1 Hitch Attachment, Tow-Behind Pine Straw Harrow for Garden, Lawn Care, Farm, Black & Yellow

What It Is

This is a heavy-duty 60-inch 3-point hitch rock rake designed for tractors with a Category 1 hitch. It’s used for clearing rocks, debris, and thatch, or for spreading pine straw and leveling soil in garden beds, lawns, and farm fields.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Hitch type: Requires a Category 1 3-point hitch (standard on most compact and subcompact tractors, e.g., John Deere 1 Series, Kubota B/L series, Massey Ferguson GC series). Check your tractor’s hitch pins: they must accept 7/8-inch diameter pins with a 26-inch spacing between lower links.
• Tractor size: Best for tractors with 15–35 HP. Too light for larger utility tractors (40+ HP) due to stress on the frame; too heavy for garden tractors or zero-turns.
• PTO not required: This is a tow-behind/drag implement, not a PTO-driven unit. No power take-off hookup needed.
• Deck clearance: Ensure your tractor’s rear tires have at least 6 inches of clearance between them and the rake frame when fully raised. Measure from hitch pins to tire sidewalls.
• Lift capacity: Confirm your 3-point lift can handle the rake’s weight (approx. 150–180 lbs dry). Most Category 1 systems handle this easily.

Key Things to Know

• 360° rotation: The rake head swivels fully, letting you angle it for side-discharge or reverse dragging. The locking pin is manual—no hydraulic control.
• Assembly required: Comes partially disassembled; expect 30–60 minutes with basic tools (wrenches, socket set). Instructions are minimal—watch a video for tine alignment.
• Tine durability: Tines are heavy spring steel, but they can bend on large rocks or frozen ground. Avoid high-speed dragging over buried stumps or boulders.
• Weight vs. traction: Light for a 60-inch rake; you may need to add suitcase weights to the tractor front or fill tires to prevent front-end lift when raking heavy material.

Should You Buy It

If you own a compact or subcompact tractor with a Category 1 hitch and need a versatile, budget-friendly rake for clearing rocks, thatching, or spreading straw, this is a solid choice. It’s not for heavy-duty grading or large acreage—those jobs need a heavier, PTO-driven unit.
