FAQs
What type of wood is used for this rake?
The rake is constructed entirely from premium beech wood, known for its strength and durability.
How do I replace the teeth on the rake?
The 12 teeth can be replaced using a combination of wood glue and a firm press-fit. Ensure the new teeth are securely in place and allow the glue to dry completely.
Is it normal for the wooden handle to have slight bends?
Yes, due to the natural properties of wood, slight bends may occur. This is normal and does not compromise the rake's strength, durability, or functionality.
What are the dimensions of the rake head?
The rake head is 60 cm wide.
What is the height and spacing of the teeth?
The teeth have a height of 9 mm and are spaced 4 cm apart.
Can this rake be used for heavy-duty farming tasks?
While built for durability, its primary design is for gardening and general farm maintenance. Its beechwood construction offers sturdiness for most common tasks.
How should I store the rake to ensure its longevity?
Store the rake in a dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture to prevent wood damage and maintain its condition.
Troubleshooting
Rake head feels wobbly
Ensure the connection between the handle and the head is secure. If loose, re-adhere using wood glue and a clamp if necessary, following the press-fit method for teeth replacement as a guide.
Teeth are bent or damaged
Replace the affected teeth using wood glue and a firm press-fit. Ensure the new teeth are seated correctly and allowed to dry fully.
Wood handle shows slight bends
This is a natural characteristic of wood and does not impact the rake's strength or functionality. Continue using as normal. Store in a dry environment.
Rake feels heavier than expected
Ensure the rake is dry. Wood can absorb moisture and become heavier. Allow it to air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This rake comes fully assembled and ready for use. Its design is compatible with standard garden tasks. To care for your wooden rake, store it in a dry place after use to prevent the wood from warping or cracking. Clean off any soil or debris with a brush or a slightly damp cloth. If the teeth become worn or damaged, they can be replaced using glue and a press-fit method. While slight bends in the natural wood handle are normal and do not affect structural integrity, avoid prolonged exposure to extreme moisture or direct sunlight.
