Sitrex QR12 Parts

Hello - thank you in advance for the replies.  

 

I am looking at upgrading hay rakes this year.  I farm about 50 acres of alfalfa and alfalfa/grass mix on flood irrigated, laser/gps leveled ground in NV. 

 

A small used equipment place near me has a Sitrex Q12 for sale at a pretty decent price.  The reason it is at a decent price is it looks like the previous owner ripped off the forward most wheel on the right arm.  When I say "right arm"  I mean when you are sitting in the tractor looking forward, the arm on the right side (behind you when sitting on the tractor) of the rake is missing its forward wheel assembly.  It is currently missing the wheel, arm and spring on that forward most wheel on the right side. This can be seen in the attached picture.  The rest of the rake looks straight and in good shape.  

 

I have found a Sitrex QR12 parts catalog located here:

In order to fix the rake and get it back in original shape I believe I will need the following:

 

Wheel (part #210.180 or 210.181). 

 

I will also need a wheel arm (part # 230.723 or 230.724).

 

I will also need the spring assembly that creates downforce on the rake.  As far as I can tell those are parts 13 - 22 on page 49.  The part numbers are as follows:  13 - 630.375, 14 - 230.729, 15 - 230.658, 16 - 230.661, 17 - 230.663, 18 - 230.662, 19 - 230.709, 20  - 600.441, 21 - 600.018 and 22 - 630.586.  

 

The questions I have are as follows:

 

1.  Do I need a right handed or left handed wheel?

2.  Do I need a right handed or left handed arm?

3.  How do I go about finding a dealer that carries Sitrex parts?  I have looked on the Sitrex website and obviously the company is Italian.  I don't see a good "dealer locator" function.  

4.  What are folks general opinions of these rakes?

Thank you very much in advance.
