Bale Unroller
 ✖  |
My home-built round bale unroller mounts on a front-end loader or 3-pt. hitch and unrolls, stacks, and loads round bales. It's equipped with a pair of 24-in. hydraulic cylinders and a pair of 16-in. dia. discs that rotate on spindles so the bale is free to roll. Unlike other bale loaders which have hinging arms, the hydraulic cylinders slide the arms in and out, making it easy to grip the bale from either the sides or ends. They're strong enough to jerk a frozen bale out of the ground. The unrolling discs can be removed when you're just stacking or loading bales. The frame is built from 3 by 4-in. steel tubing, 1/4-in. thick. The unroller can be 3-pt. or pickup-mounted. (Peter Korobko, Box249, Tofleld, Alberta, Canada T0B 4J0 ph 403 662-2142)
