<p>A pea harvester is disclosed comprising a mobile chassis, a forwardlyextending pivotal frame structure, a rotary, tined, picking reel for gathering standing crop and at least one ground-engaging roller mounted on the forward end of the frame structure. The roller serves to locate the picking reel so that the foremost tines are slightly above the surface of the ground. The frame structure is suspended from the mobile chassis in such a way as to establish a selected minimum ground pressure by the roller and thus enable the picking reel to maintain its position above the ground surface when travers-ing ground irregularities.</p> |
