Rake Help with Harley Rake

dougzdog · May 1, 2005

i just picked up this used harley rake for $2000. i then had a remote added to my tractor. when i pull the lever for the remote back it angles one way, when i push the lever foward nothing happens. if i switch the hoses around on the remote it angles in the other direction. the rake has 2 cylinoids mounted on top that i have to figure out how to wire to the tractor to change flow to scarifiers. does anyone have a rake like this that can tell me how to wire it? will that fix my one direction angeling problem?

I'd say one of the solenoids is not working. With no power, the two solenoids should default to in your case probably bi angle turning. With power to the one wire, it runs the two soenoids, the other wire is through the ground of the equipment. My Pro 8 has 4 solenoids for for the spring teeth as well as hydraulic lift on the rollers. With no power, it deafualts to bi angle. You should hear a clicking when you energize the circuit with 12 volts. Do it with the engine off and listen.
