Only a portion of the hay rake remains. The seat, mounted on the front of the frame, and the large metal wheels are missing. Spare tines for the buck rake are also present. This hay rake with curved tines was pulled by horses and used to pile hay into windrows or clean up the field after haying. These rakes often had automatic dumping mechanisms that could be initiated by pressing a foot lever. One worker remembers operating the hay rake in the late 1930s when the horse spooked and caused the the rake to overturn and bend the wheels, which had to be fixed at the blacksmith shop.
