Stick Rake
An open-tined rake gathers and separates suitable cleared vegetation and coarse debris while allowing some loose soil to fall away.
When to choose it
- Gathering cleared branches and roots
- Windrowing vegetation for loading
- Separating coarse debris from suitable loose soil
When it’s not the right call
- Mulching. A rake gathers material; it does not shred it into mulch.
- Soil-free separation. Some soil may remain with the debris, depending on moisture and tyne spacing.
- Heavy ripping or lifting. Gathering duty does not establish structural lifting or hard-ground ripping capability.
Sizes we work with
4.5T - 25T carriers
Carrier weight is a starting point, not a fit confirmation. The attachment, mounting and operating requirements need to suit your machine.

The Right Setup Starts Here
Tell us what you need to get done. A few key details about your job help us specify, configure and commission the right attachment for your machine, application and site requirements.
- Debris: Branches, roots and coarse material dimensions.
- Ground: Soil type, moisture and terrain.
- Work: Rake width, access and gathering versus digging requirements.
- Carrier and access: Machine make/model, operating weight, hitch, reach, working platform and relevant hydraulic circuits.

Common questions
What is an excavator stick rake used for?
An open-tined rake gathers cleared vegetation and coarse debris while allowing loose soil to fall away.
Can a stick rake remove stumps?
Large rooted stumps usually need excavation first. The rake gathers and sorts cleared material.
Stick rake or grab for land clearing?
A rake gathers and windrows; a grab holds material for loading or placement. Many clearing jobs use both.
Does a stick rake keep topsoil on site?
Its open tines let much loose soil fall through, which helps limit soil removed with vegetation.
Will a stick rake fit my excavator?
Supply the excavator make, model, operating weight and hitch details, plus available hydraulic flow, pressure and auxiliary circuits for powered tools. We check the stick rake against the carrier before anything mobilises, so the setup arrives matched to the machine and the task rather than being sorted out on site.
