ABSTRACT:
A swath turning machine having a frame with a first edge and a second edge and wheels rotatably attached to the frame so that the frame can be pulled by a tractor in a direction of travel. A pick-up device is disposed along the first edge which engages swaths of hay lying on the ground and deposits them on the frame. An endless belt connected to the frame moves the swaths from the first edge of the frame to the second edge. The second edge is spaced above the ground and defines an obtuse angle with the direction of frame travel. A turning device moves the swaths in a direction generally perpendicular to the direction of frame travel from the second edge to the ground, turning the swaths over, so that the underside can be quickly dried, as the frame is pulled by the tractor.
