REPLACEMENT PARTS AND REPAIRS
Ball Hawk LT pickers are designed for continuous use and are virtually indestructible. However, certain
component parts, such as discs, bearings, and wire hoppers, are subject to wear and deterioration and may
eventually require replacement.
Many components of the Ball Hawk LT picker, (combination discs, end wheel, etc.) are maintained in stock at
the factory for immediate delivery. In emergency cases, parts can be shipped via Next Day delivery.
When ordering parts, refer to the item and part numbers listed in the Replacement Parts Section of this
manual. Always identify picker model and serial number as found on the identification sticker located on the
top of the draw bar. If the model and serial numbers are unavailable, identification can be made through
parts measurements. Consult factory for details.
In cases of older pickers, some parts may have become obsolete because of design or engineering changes.
Many outdated parts are maintained in inventory, or can be manufactured. Consult factory for details.
Extremely worn or old pickers may require installation of a complete replacement drum section. Consult
factory for details.
All assemblies and replacements of the Ball Hawk LT picker utilize standard hardware and can be
accomplished by maintenance personnel. Be sure to follow all fundamental operation and safety rules when
working machinery.
