<p>The machine has a machine frame (3) designed as a longitudinal frame. The frame has a coupling device for coupling at a tractor at a front end. A rake is hinged at the machine frame via a supporting arm (9), which projects transverse from the machine frame. The supporting arm is swivelably supported at the machine frame around a supporting arm swiveling axis (11). The supporting arm and the rake are lifted in a transport position. The supporting arm is lowered in an operating position. The supporting arm swiveling axis is inclined in an acute angle in relation to a horizontal level.</p>
