Built for quality, Kuhn’s GA 8131 CL sets a new standard in raking performance
Raking is more than just gathering crop, it’s about protecting quality from the ground up. The Kuhn GA 8131 CL twin-rotor rake is built to deliver clean, airy, and uniform windrows while handling Australia’s toughest forage conditions with ease.
Combining Kuhn’s renowned rotor technology with an industry-first central aerator pick-up, it is a machine designed for farmers who won’t compromise on feed quality or efficiency.
Whether you’re working green fodder destined for silage or dry crops such as lucerne and cereal hay, the GA 8131 CL adapts with precision, speed, and consistency.
Innovation is at the heart, with an exclusive central aerator pick-up.
The GA 8131 CL is the only rake on the market with a patented 1.8m-wide aerator pick-up positioned in front of the rotors.
This unique system lifts and aerates forage in the centre zone that conventional rakes leave untouched, improving drying rates and producing light, fluffy, homogeneous windrows that are easier for balers, harvesters, and loaders to handle.
Automatic lifting and lowering during headland turns keeps operation smooth and simple, while adjustable pickup speed and deflector position let you fine-tune performance for different crops and conditions.
Proven technology
The GA 8131 CL builds on Kuhn’s long-standing reputation for raking excellence.
Key features include an optimised rotor attachment point for a “jet effect” that lowers the rear of the rotor first, preserving forage quality.
There is 3D rotor articulation with wheels positioned close to the tines for unmatched ground following, plus generous rotor clearance of 43-70 cm depending on width setting to protect pre-formed windrows.
The MasterDrive GIII gearbox provides reliable, low-maintenance operation even in dense, heavy crops.
With a working width of 8m, the GA 8131 CL hits the sweet spot for medium to large farms, being wide enough to boost throughput, and compact enough for manoeuvrability.
The large vertical and angular travel range of the pick-up ensures consistent results across uneven terrain, while the even windrows improve downstream harvesting efficiency.
From the robust rotor arms to the heavy-duty gearbox, the GA 8131 CL is engineered for years of dependable service.
Low daily maintenance requirements keep downtime to a minimum, and Kuhn’s dealer network ensures parts and support are never far away.
By combining innovative windrow aeration with Kuhn’s proven rake engineering, the GA 8131 CL delivers premium-quality forage every time.
For producers who value efficiency, crop care, and machine longevity, it’s a rake that works as hard as you do.
