McIntosh Double Bale Feeder, User Manual

Page: 7 / 12

you find the best position for you. The heaviest bale we have loaded weighed 1,300kg so there is heaps of
power in the ram.
To get the forks out of the bale, reverse the oil flow and the main ram will lower down while the smaller ram
will go into a float action. Once the main ram fully retracts, the smaller ram will then rotate the forks until
they are down to the load position again.
Remove the plastic and back into the second bale. Lift the bale to a good travelling height. If feeding out the
first bale on steeper country, you may want to lower the second bale or even drop it off and reload once
you’ve finished the first bale.
With rotocut bales you may need to be higher so the net doesn’t fall on the teeth.
When travelling with no bale on the forks, have them in the up position so that you do not back them into
anything or anyone trips over them.
