| RockHound 48" Landscape Rake
This is the revolutionary rake that started it all. RockHound has been the choice of landscape professionals for decades and there is a reason. This thing just works! This is one of the first attachments I rented 11 years ago and I have always been very impressed by the tasks that this rake has been able to perform.
We were originally developing the lawn for our new house and had paid a guy to do it. $5000 later we had a lawn but after a year we realized the guy did a really bad job. I got out the Roundup and started over. I bought a Bobcat and rented this rake. It was incredible what a nice job it did in such a short time. I was sold, except I just did not need one for permanent use so I just rented as needed. Well it is now 11 years later and I wish I just would have bought the thing at the time. I have needed it so many times as I would have paid it off and had it to use all these years. This is just how important of an investment I have realized it would have been.
If you just bought some property and want to develop a yard professionally and fast, this is the attachment. It tears up the top surface, and removes the rocks, brush and debris while laying down a beautiful layer of soil ready for seed. It does this quickly and easily. That is why you need this attachment. It really does pay for itself and leaves you with a new respect for just what a skid steer attachment can do.
How does it work?
You simply drive backwards and engage the attachment with the ground. Your auxiliary hydraulics turn the motor that drives the tooth bars. These tooth bars act like a power rake. They churn up the ground and pull all of the material you do not want on the surface of your ground and lay down a nice fluffy layer of top soil. You add your seed and roll flat. In a couple of weeks you will have a wonderful lawn and people will swear you had a crew of people install it. Only you will know the truth. The 48" version does not have a hopper to hold the material so it is pulled to the back of the unit and must be picked up after you power rake. I use my regular bucket for clean up.
