„
Round bales
- Raise the arm and hook for good visibility.
- Reverse the machine near to the bale.
- Extend the hook as far as possible and lower the arm
until it comes into contact with the bale and covers it.
- Keep the arm in contact with the bale while reversing
slowly. Once the bale is engaged in the body, finish
loading with the hook and arm.
- Raise the back of the machine to hold the bale in the
body.
- Raise the arm slightly to decompress the bale.
- Remove the binding, then lower the arm again.
For a machine equipped with a hydraulic unit,
you must set the gearbox to neutral..
To make it easier to spread the hay or straw with
a round bale, load the bale so that it can unroll
naturally. This allows the blower-beater bar
assembly to be fed more easily, and improves
the straw blowing or feeding.
