ABSTRACT:
A hand rake having a plurality of tines whose spread is adjustable in width for different operations. The tines extend through a guide at the bottom of the rake handle and are secured at their upper end to a retainer which slides along the handle. A special retainer structure clamps the upper end of the tines tightly so that the rotational position of the retainer is maintained by the tines in a fixed position with respect to the guide position. A split collar and locking nut arrangement facilitate the locking of the retainer with one hand in various adjusted positions along the handle. The handle can be made in two parts for separation when not in use. A hook extends from the guide for hanging the rake when not in use.
