Power Rakes

A finished grade is what wins the next referral, and the operators who prep ground for turf, sod, and paving know a power rake gets them there in a fraction of the passes a bucket needs.

A skid steer power rake conditions soil, pulls rocks and debris to the surface, and leaves the fine, level finish that seed and sod demand. The rakes here span standard-duty units for residential lots through heavy-duty builds sized for daily contractor use, matched to the hydraulic flow your machine puts out.

The finish comes down to matching the rake to the loader. A rotating carbide-tooth drum breaks compacted soil and separates material as it goes, but only when the machine holds drum speed under load. For deeper research on drum types and tooth wear, the Harley rake buyer's guide breaks down what to look for before you buy. Every rake here is chosen for crews who are judged on the surface they leave behind, not on how fast they crossed it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a skid steer power rake used for?

A skid steer power rake conditions soil, levels ground, and removes rocks and debris to prepare a site for seeding, sod, or paving. Its rotating carbide-tooth drum breaks up compacted soil and separates material in one pass, replacing several passes with a bucket or landscape rake.

What is the difference between a power rake and a Harley rake?

There is no real difference, since Harley is a brand name that became shorthand for the whole category. Both terms describe a skid steer attachment with a rotating drum that conditions soil, grades, and separates debris. Focus on flow, width, and drum design rather than the name.

How much hydraulic flow do I need to run a power rake?

Most skid steer power rakes need 15 to 33 GPM of auxiliary flow, with mini-loader models running as low as 9 GPM. Match the rake's rated flow to your machine, since too little flow slows the drum and hurts the finish, while too much can void the warranty.

What width power rake should I choose?

Choose a rake width that at least covers your machine's wheel or track span, so you level your own tracks as you work. Wider drums cover more ground per pass but only help if the machine can hold drum speed under load. Common widths run from 72 to 90 inches.

Do power rakes remove rocks and debris?

Yes, power rakes pull rocks, roots, and debris to the surface while grading, with the rotating drum windrowing material to the side for pickup. Box-style rakes capture and contain debris as they condition the soil, leaving a clean, graded finish ready for seed or sod.
