The Sitrex GSE‑240 is a belt-driven side-delivery hay rake, part of the robust GSE series designed for efficient and gentle hay windrow formation.
Key Specifications
Working width: ≈ 95″ (240 cm)
Transport width: ≈ 100″ (8.3 ft)
Drive: belt-driven, smooth, low-maintenance operation
13 combs, each with 6 tines, designed for clean rake action
Watertight sealed bearings—no frequent lubrication required
Max speed: up to 12 km/h (7.5 mph)
Performance & Build
Works well on both green and dry forage, thanks to tine elasticity that avoids damage and prevents long braiding of the windrow
Produces airy, soft windrows, easy for baling or collection
Reliable even at higher speeds with hydraulic folding (for transport), and height adjustment to adapt to field variation
Durability & Maintenance
Rugged and low upkeep: steel pulleys, belt drive, sealed bearings = heavy-duty operation and minimal servicing
Hydraulics and belt transmission are simpler compared to shaft-driven models
Operational Use
Ideal for efficiently raking hay across medium-sized fields using a modest tractor (≈ 40 HP). Belt rake design ensures clean windrows and less plant damage, and sealed bearings lower maintenance needs.
