What Is an Excavator Rake?
An excavator rake is a specialized attachment designed to aid in land clearing, debris removal, and site preparation. Unlike traditional digging tools, the rake designed to gather and sort debris while minimizing soil disturbance. It features strong, spaced teeth that allow for efficient screening of debris such as roots, rocks, and brush. Excavator rakes are mounted onto the excavator’s arm, just like other attachments such as buckets or breakers. They are compatible with quick coupler systems for fast installation and removal. When paired with a tilting quick hitch, the rake gains additional flexibility for angled operations in tight or awkward spaces.
