DEF

Râteau monté sur un engin forestier, qui comporte une rangée de dents verticales ramassant les résidus d'exploitation au sol, ainsi que des bras supérieurs pivotants qui s'abaissent contre les dents pour presser les résidus et permettre de les transporter en bordure de route.

OBS

Ce type de râteau est parfois désigné dans la documentation par le terme râteau à résidus qui nous semble manquer de précision. Nous lui préférons râteau-grappin, beaucoup plus descriptif.
