So what are you going to do with this rake when you need to rake 6 together to make a big enough windrow for the big baler? Depending on the width of your mower the best this will do is three.
These triple windrow will be 4 windrow widths from the next raked-up windrow. Too far apart to combine with your V-rake without running around and around and around pushing them toward each other with one side of the rake.
V-rakes are nice as long as you don't need to make windrows wider than what the rake can do in a single swipe. Anything more ends up taking longer than doing it with a single rake.
That's the nice thing about tandem 258's. You can make the windrows as wide as you want, and there is no wasted motion. Need two, rake two. Need four, rake two one way and two the other. Need six, two one way and one the other. Always raking full width and making progress, not slowly poking the windrows around with wasted half-passes.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
