A towed agricultural implement comprising:

• a support frame one end of which is adapted for connection to a towing vehicle;
• a drive apparatus carried by the support frame, wherein one end of the drive apparatus is adapted for connection to the towing vehicle;
• support arms carried from the support frame, wherein each of the support arms is moveable between a working position and a transport position and comprises at least one rotary rake adapted to be driven about a central rake axis;
• a drive arrangement adapted to connect the at least one rotary rake to the drive apparatus;
• and
• an intermediate drive element connecting the drive apparatus and the drive arrangement, moveably supported from the support frame, wherein the intermediate drive element is supported in a first raised position when the support arms are in the working position and a second lowered position when the support arms are in the transport position, wherein the intermediate drive element is suspended from the support frame by a biased frame element with the biased frame element being biased towards a raised position in which the intermediate drive element is in the first raised position, wherein the support frame is connected to the biased frame element by biasing elements, wherein the biased frame element comprises upper and lower connecting elements, wherein first ends of each of the upper and lower connecting elements are pivotally mounted to a bracket supported from the support frame.
