Blue Diamond Attachments New Hydraulic Rock Rake takes land preparation to a whole new level

Blue Diamond Attachments’ new Skid Steer Hydraulic Rock Rake brings ground preparation into a new era of efficiency and reliability. They are engineered to remove rocks and unwanted debris swiftly, providing landscapers, general contractors, and land-clearing professionals with a powerful tool to offset labor intensive hand raking – delivering more efficient productivity.

The Blue Diamond Rock Rake also allows the contractor to maximize the equipment he or she has on site. Skid and track loaders are commonplace on jobs today, and with this new attachment offering, the operator need only put the Rock Rake on that loader and get to work on rock removal and land prep.  

How it’s Built:

• Working and overall width: With a 68″ working width and 79″ overall width, the rake offers optimal soil coverage, especially when paired with skid steers or track loaders.
• Flow requirements: It operates effectively between 13–23 gallons per minute (GPM) hydraulic flow, making it compatible with a wide range of skid steer and track loader models.
• Weight: 1,500 lbs.

Twelve bolt-on, reversible rake bars offer the operator 484 AR400 hardened steel teeth in a staggered dual-channel configuration. The teeth feed an integrated hydraulic bucket materials ranging from ¾ inch to 8 inches in diameter. Operators can adjust skid shoes to regulate working depth, minimizing wear and customizing performance based on the terrain of the jobsite.

Key Features That Set the Blue Diamond Rock Rake Apart

1. Hydraulic top-cover with dump function
   The hydraulically actuated top cover allows efficient loading and unloading. The operator must simply lift to dump collected rocks and debris, saving significant time. No bending, dumping, or manual handling saves labor and boosts productivity
2. Built‑in hydraulic and structural durability
   A hydraulic protection valve guards the motor from pressure surges, while a reinforced hood resists front-end impacts — an ideal feature for rugged terrain and rocky ground.

3. Replaceable, high-grade components
   The staggered, hardened teeth and reversible bolt-on bar system allow for quick, cost-effective maintenance, extending the life of components without the need to replace the entire unit.
4. Operator convenience
   Integrated steps improve cab access, making it safer and easier to mount and exit the machine — especially when clearing, loading, or performing routine maintenance checks.

Field Performance and Benefits

1. Speeds up prep work: Because the Blue Diamond Rock Rake gathers debris ranging from ¾ inch up to 8-inch diameter, site prep is expedited.
2. Precision leveling: The skid shoes and aggressive tooth pattern create a clean, smooth surface ready for seeding, paving, or landscaping in as little as one pass.
3. Less downtime: Hydraulic dumping and reversible bars cut maintenance and clearing time.
4. Versatile terrain adaptability: Whether it’s graveled lots, farm fields, or construction sites the rugged build ensures durability under all conditions.
