will this rake a small field of cut and dried hay into a windrow for baling?

It is possible, but would depend on adjusting it correctly. I have used it to rake walnuts and dethatch my grass, also leaves in the fall.

I have only used it for a small time, I believe it will do the job, but it will take some practice using the rake to get the most out of it. The field I had a chance to rake was a couple acres , it did a fair job.

No, you should buy a hay rake for that. Or see if a neighbor can do it for you. There is a huge difference between grass clippings and hay.

It will handle them, the vac function works very well and the mulching blade is durable. However it will be very noisy with the acorns being ground up! On the down side, the blowing function does not work well for anything heavier than dry leaves - the end of the nozzle is too small to allow a lot of air out.

I've used this rake in to keep weeds out of my garden and it works great. I haven't tried it on heavy clay soils but I think it won't work well. The blade would probably have trouble cutting the soil and the whole rake may not be strong enough to endure that kind of punishment. You are better off using another tool to break up the clay. After the clay is properly mulched, this rake would work well.

I am pretty confident it will, but I have never done it. I've used it mostly for cutting down small trees and brush and it works really well for that.

Yes it will, if you use the grass blade. It will do fine. You will have to sit down and scoot along as you cut. The hedge trimmer blade is also good but only on the lightest of hedge growth. I expected it to be quite a bit more powerful than it is. That was disappointing. I hope that helps.

I would think it could do the job easily. The tool is not heavy so you won't get tired and I think you can be pretty precise with it. I was using it for my garden needs.

yes. it would be great for that. if you use it for bulbs, i would recommend a drill with a handle, when it bites it hurts, but for breaking up garden soil or compost any drill would work great.

I doubt it. We use it to break up clods of dirt and manure, and to rake the arena. It does a pretty good job at that, but anything heavy like a boulder it bounces over, and it does catch debris in the tines.

Yes..it will...not uniformly but it will chop and if not careful, pulverize it.

Yes it will but it's slow. It will pull grass and weeds out of the ground, roots and all. You will have to stop and rake the stuff out of the way as you move along the area. I have a mantis tiller which really tears up the ground but it doesn't pull the weeds out as well as the B&D. My battery lasts for about 30 miinutes, but I have 4 batteries so not a problem....

Yes and it will do a good job of it. Up to a half inch this unit will pick up broken bits of staples, so brads and finishing nails are picked up even further.

That depends on how thick the needles or grass it. If you haven't cut your grass in 3 weeks and it is laying in windrows, I would say no. If you cut your grass weekly this will sweep the grass or needles up nicely

I dont think it would work well at weeding gardens.Not shaped right and the extension is made from light weight material.

You would use it in addition to a rake. Best use is both hands to pickup yard debris, or on one hand to scope the debris into the bag. Really makes work easier, and I'm all for that!

It should work fine. When I mow it picks up the clippings with no problem. In the fall I use it to pick up leaves with no problem. Blossoms? I don't see why it wouldn't pick them up also. It sure beats rakeing.

Simple answer - yes. I bought this for use at the horse barn where I volunteer. We have lots of dust and lots of cob webs. It works great at removing the cob webs as well as dusting the difficult to reach surfaces. Hopes this helps.

it seems to cut through surface weeds very well so i would think it should cut just about anything. this is a quality made tool.
