ABSTRACT:
The combination of a tractor, a swather of the type including a center rear discharge towed behind the tractor and a side delivery rake towed behind the swather. First towing structure is utilized to couple the side delivery rake to the swather for towing therebehind and second towing structure is utilized to towingly couple the swather behind the tractor. The first and second towing structures are operative to inversely laterally shift the side delivery rake relative to the swather and the swather relative to the prime mover. In this manner, movement of the combination along parallel side-by-side paths, while moving in opposite directions, may result in windrowing of the cuttings made by the swather in a single windrow and it is therefore possible for a baler or other pick-up device to pick up the cuttings of the swather as a result of the pick-up or baling structure making only one-half the number of passes made by the swather and the baler is capable of forming tighter and heavier bales.
