2.
With the trailer in ‘Stack Mode’
, raise the trailer platform up so
it’s
just touching/about to
come off the lift assistor cylinders (Figure 42).
3.
Reverse slowly until the you feel the trailer make contact with the existing stack. Using the
Transtacker mudguard as a reference, pull forward approximately 8-9 tyre cleats and then
proceed to tip the trailer up. This should give you a relatively tight stack. Depending on ground,
adjust number of cleats in order to get stack to satisfactory tightness between stacks.
NOTE:
It can be useful to use a tramline or hedge line in order to get the stack relatively straight.
You will also find that if the bales are stacked too tight at the bottom of the stack, the stack will always
want to lean forward. In order for the stack to be stable enough to remain standing for a period of
