KUHN GRS 24 tedder/rake

Hey folks!

 

Got a big "tine" problem.

 

I keep breaking tines. It is a 3pt hitch model.

 

I use it for both tedding and raking. I am going through 2 or 3 tines every 20 or so acres. Overall the fields are in pretty good shape but there are a number of rough spots in one of them.

 

Thought I might be too low and have adjusted up a little. IDK.

 

Any Kuhn Tedder rake secrets?  I read on the line something about keeping the tines from spreading by binding them ? Might be time for an upgrade.
