Later, a mechanically more complicated rake was developed, known as the side delivery rake.

Later versions of the side delivery rake used a more severe transverse angle and a higher frame system, but the basic principles of operation were the same.

After the hay was made, been turned and scaled and scaled and turned, it was made into rows by a side delivery rake.

It can be put into windrows with hand rake, side delivery rake, or horse rake; collected and carted using wagon, trailer, or buckrake; and made in a tower, clamp, or pit.

A side delivery rake could be pulled longitudinally along the windrow by horses or a tractor, eliminating the laborious and inefficient process of raising, lowering, and back-and-forth raking required by a dump rake.
