Abstract
A trailing harrow attachment is pivotally connected to the aft end of support arms for rotation about a transverse axis between a field-working position wherein the harrow tines engage the soil, and a non-operative position wherein the harrow is rotated about the axis by approximately 180.degree. so that the tines extend away from the ground to provide better trash flow and ground clearance. The angles that attach the harrow to the trailing arms include apertures located an equal distance radially outwardly on opposite sides of the axis so that the harrow may be pinned at the same location on one of the support arms in either the field-working or the non-operative position.
