ABSTRACT:
A rake system having a pair of rake handles, each having a top and bottom and a main body with a plurality of tines projecting therefrom mounted to the bottom of the handle. The distal ends of the tines form an angle of about 45° and 60° between the ground and a longitudinal axis passing through the handles, the angle being fixedly adjustable by the user based on height and/or posture. The handles are pivotally attached to each other at a pivot point between the top and bottom ends to permit the handles to pivot the rake and gathering member toward and away from each other to permit the raking and capture of debris. Pivotally hinged struts limit the pivot action of the handles to prevent them from separating too for apart and to maintain optimum separation.
