Rather than fixing all three rakes together, let them individually settle on the bottom, pivoting at the end of the handles. That way more of the length of the tool can be contacting the bottom at a time. You may need to tie a brick onto each of the three rakes to help hold it down.
I used one of these rakes to prep the soil around the pond for seeding as they work great for leveling and stone removal over large areas. I have not tried it yet for weed removal, but I think you need to add weight to make it stay on the bottom when dragging.
