Instructions for work
„
Rectangular bales
- Raise the arm and hook for good visibility.
- Reverse the machine near to the bale.
- Extend the hook as far as it will go and lower the arm
until it contacts the middle of the bale.
- 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.
- Once the bale is loaded into the machine, position the
hook to hold it in place without compressing it against
the bale separator.
- 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.
- Position the hook so that the marker rod is in the
second notch.
It is easier to remove the bindings when the bale
has been loaded with the bindings on the side.
