I used to have to use a 753G on a Bobcat soil conditioner, and we had to use a larger machine to pick it up off the trailer. The 753G could "push it around" but not lift it high enough to load/unload. Isn't a 743 smaller than a 753? I am unfamiliar with the earlier machines, but we had counterweights on our 753 and it still was too small. A landscape rake would be totally out of the question, as you have to pick them up pretty high to dump out the junk you collect. If you had enough machine, I would suggest the harley rake/soil conditioner for what you are doing-they work GREAT. But your machine is too small.</p></blockquote><p></p>
