Pitchfork Greenmill GR9116 — agricultural 4-tine fork, metal construction

Greenmill GR9116 — agricultural 4-tine fork is a practical tool for routine farm and garden tasks. The metal 4-tine head is designed to handle hay, straw, compost and other loose organic materials while also allowing light soil turning. Its straightforward construction focuses on durability and functional use in feeding livestock, mucking out stables and seasonal yard work where a compact, four-prong fork is required.

Advantages

The metal tines provide reliable strength for lifting and moving loose materials without excessive flex. A four-tine layout balances material hold and penetration, making it suitable for both bulky bedding and softer compost. The simple, robust design reduces maintenance needs and supports repeated daily use in agricultural or horticultural settings.

Suitable for

• Handling hay and straw
• Moving compost and loose organic matter
• Mucking out stables and livestock bedding
• Light turning and aeration of soil or compost piles
• Seasonal yard and garden cleanup

Key specifications

• Number of tines: 4
• Tine material: metal
• Intended tasks: handling loose organic materials, light soil work
• Design: agricultural/garden pitchfork with compact four-prong head
• Durability: built for repeated use in farm and stable environments

How to use

Position the fork tines under the material to be moved, tilt the handle back to lift and carry loads to the desired location, then deposit by lowering and angling the tines. For mucking out and bedding replacement, use short controlled lifts to avoid overloading the fork. When turning compost or light soil, insert the tines to the required depth and lift with a steady motion. Regularly check the tines and handle attachment for secure fit before use.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and sturdy footwear; avoid using the fork on heavy, compacted soil or for prying large rocks to prevent bending the tines. Store the fork in a dry place to reduce corrosion and inspect the metal tines periodically for wear or damage.
