Description
The BT500 Bale Transporter is designed to load, transport and unload round baled fodder such as silage or hay to
stock.
The BT500 is a trailed attachment, attaching to the towing vehicle with a 50mm ball hitch connection with integral
overturn safety swivel hitch. Available with either standard single axle or with the optional twin bogie axle system
for rougher ground and heavier bales.
Loading and unloading of the bales is achieved using a ratchet and electric winch system, with the winch drawing
power from the towing vehicle via a dedicated power draw off and connector. Winch actuation is achieved using
either the supplied remote controls or hard-wired switch.
These machines should however only be used to perform tasks for which they were designed - use of the machine
for any other function may be both dangerous to persons, and potentially damaging to components. Use of the
machine beyond the stated usage may invalidate any applicable warranty, as well as being potential in breach of
applicable safety regulations.
Note: This machine is for off-road use only and is not designed or approved for highway travel
