ABSTRACT:
A pickup attachment for use on crop harvesting machines wherein the pickup attachment includes a reel with a plurality of fingers connected to and rotatable about a central shaft in a predetermined path to pick up crop material. The pickup attachment is supported at one side by a wheel and at the other side by a roller positioned underneath the pickup attachment. The wheel is arranged with its center located substantially in alignment vertically with the axis of the reel central shaft while the roller is arranged with its center located rearward of the axis of the reel central shaft. This arrangement of the wheel and the roller allows the path of the reel fingers to follow the contour of the ground in proximity thereto when the pickup attachment is operated over rough or uneven terrain.
