2 A G R I C U L T U R E implements FOR loaders RANGE TO HANDLE STRAW BALES INFO Specifically for Telehandlers MANUBAL V6000 L40 For telehandlers (to take 3 round bales or 4 square bales) L500 L6000 Please consult the Telehandlers literature for further information. EASY HANDLING IN ALL SITUATIONS Highly effective, the MANUBAL range promotes easier handling of bales, gripped on their curved or flat surface, you can handle and stack them with complete confi dence and precision. Example : MANUBAL V40 Gripped on the curve Gripped on the fl at Round bales Square bales

3 Handle bales with complete confidence! Incorporating original design concepts, the MANUBAL range can be used for a wide variety of bale handling tasks, and promotes unequalled handling speed. We can offer a bale handler that exactly meets your requirements, whatever the size of your farm or preferred storage method.

4 RANGE AGRicultuRE Stacking solutions for straw bales A new range V even more powerful! A synchronized grab action for optimum stability When gripping or releasing bales, they remain perfectly motionless due to the symmetrical opening of the grip arms. This promotes faster, safer handling and a more stable bale stack. Optimal stacking solutions relative to your storage method Whatever your desired stack height (i.e. 4, 5 or 6 bales high), or the configuration of your buildings, we can offer a bale handler that exactly meets yours needs. The precision offered by the MANUBAL range enables you to build stable stacks with no bale damage. Adjustable geometry to handle all bale types and sizes With its adjustable grip action no compromises have to be made with the Manubal V range, they are perfect for handling both round and square bales. The adjustable geometry offers : - a more acute closing angle for round bales (Ø 0.90 m to Ø1.80 m), - or a maximum opening for square bales, with tines fully retracted to minimize damage to the bale. Heavy duty structure Built to last, MANUBAL handlers have a strong tubular chassis with reinforced tine fixing points and bushed at all pivot points. See working demo video on Quick fit wrapped bale kit - The MANUBAL V40 and W500 can be converted into a wrapped bale handler in seconds, without the need of any tools. - For handling wrapped bales Ø1.10 m to Ø1.60 m, up to 800 kg. See working demo video on Unique low tines More flexibility thanks to floating position - The tines are easier to withdraw if the Manubal is slightly tilted forward, this offers better stability, particularly when loading trailers or building high stacks. - When laying the bales down they are not dragged or damaged. - The tines float independently which is more efficient when collecting bales on uneven or slopping ground. - The tines can float across the ground, hence reducing damage and wear. 1 2 Adjustable tine width The width of the tines can easily be adjusted from 0.60 m to 1.10 m. Two parking positions 1- The tines can be automatically folded back by simply fully crowding back the MANUBAL, this offers a quick and safe transport position. 2- Without the need for any tools, the tines can quickly be removed and conveniently stored on the chassis of the MANUBAL.

5 P MANUBAL V40 the most compact and versatile With its compact chassis and large grip the MANUBAL V40 is the ideal attachment for handling and stacking round and square straw bales. With six grip tines it can easily handle one or two bales at once, and with its optional twin tine kit you have the added versatility to spike bales. Compact (overall height 1.05 m) Grip with 6 tines, height 800 mm Pick up 1 or 2 bales (round or square) Requires hydraulic system: 1 D/A function Minimum front loader lifting height: 3.45 m at pivot Power equal or superior to the MXT6 OPTIONS With an additional twin tine kit (Ø40 x 950 mm), the MANUBAL V40 becomes extremely effi cient for handling round or square bales in the fi eld. When fully tilted back the twin tines automatically fold back into a transport position. With the wrapped bale kit, the Manubal V40 becomes an effi cient attachment for handling wrapped silage bales.

6 RANGE AGRicultuRE 5 PATENTED MANUBAL V50 For safe stacking of 5 bales With its extending mast the MANUBAL V50 is the ideal solution for stacking up to 5 bales high with a tractor loader unit. The elevation of the grip is made from the tractor seat with a patented ratchet system. Your storage is maximised without compromising safety. OPTIONS 2 adjustable tines positions without leaving the tractor No additional hydraulic function necessary Unique locking and unlocking system to extend grip (patented) Requires hydraulic system: 1 D/A function Minimum front loader lifting height: 3.85 m at pivot Power equal or superior to the MXT8 Twin tines kit Ø40 x 950 mm working length Wrapped silage bale kit change the grip position without leaving your seat, and without the need of an additional hydraulic service See working demo video on Push the button to release the grip. Dump forward and the grip slides to elevated position. The grip automatically locks into position.

7 P MANUBAL V500 large grip for maximum effi ciency The MANUBAL V500 has a large grip with 8 curved tines, allowing 2 bales to be handled with ease in total security. Large grip with 8 tines (height 1.50 m) Handle 2 round bales or 3 square bales Requires hydraulic system: 1 D/A function Minimum front loader lifting height: 3.60 m at pivot Power equal or superior to the MXT10 OPTIONS MANUBAL W500 Productivity in the fi eld The MANUBAL W500 has 2 grips that can be operated independently; this reduces handling time when gathering bales in the field, hence increasing productivity. 2 separate grips that can be operated independently Change over sensor to detect second bale is gripped Requires hydraulic system: 1 D/A function Minimum front loader lifting height: 3.60 m at pivot Power equal or superior to the MXT10 Twin tines kit V500 (2 or 3 tines) Twin tines kit W500 (2 tines). Wrapped silage bale kit The fi rst bale is gathered by the lower grip. With the fi rst bale still gripped, the second bale is gathered with the upper grip. Gather 2 bales at the same time = double productivity! MANUBAL V60 Easily stakes up too 6 bales high The MANUBAL V60 allows safe and efficient handling of straw bales. It can lift, rotate and drop the bale without constantly re-positioning the tractor. Stacking is achieved without having to release the bale, whatever your storage method. 6 Double-acting rotation and pivoting ram Wrapped bale kit available Loader requires self-levelling system. Requires hydraulic system: 2 D/A function Minimum front loader lifting height: 3.50 m at pivot Power equal or superior to the MXT6 OPTION With a MANUBAL V60 a tractor loader unit can easily stack 6 bales high, even when reaching over existing bales, a practical advantage when re-arranging bales stockage The MANUBAL V60 offers an impressive reach which optimizes your performance. Its kinematics enables you to easily deposit a bale at the opposite end of trailer or behind another bale, while keeping the tractor/loader unit in stable position. Wrapped silage bale kit V60.

10 RANGE Agriculture Handling solutions for wrapped bales Careful handling to preserve your wrapped silage bales

11 P MANUBAL ADAPtS to YOuR BAlES! STANDARD Effi cient and secure The bale is gripped by a tubular frame specifi cally shaped to follow the contours of the bale. A large diameter ram ensures secure handling of heavy bales up to 1200 kgs. A non return valve (standard fitment) guarantees a continued strong grip whilst moving the bale. The MANUBAL has multi-position rear support bars that can be adjusted to perfectly support the bale, whatever the diameter. Versatile and easy-to-use The MANUBAL offers the widest opening grip on the market, enabling bales from diameter 0.90 m to 1.80 m to be handled with the same handler. Incorporating an integrated synchronising spring the machine self-aligns the bale to promote easier handling. The slim arm design enables the bales to be stacked close together. Although specifi cally designed for wrapped silage bales, the MANUBAL can also handle round hay and straw bales even the odd square bale! Strong build with smooth edges The MANUBAL has a heavy duty chassis to ensure durability and reliability, especially when used with a material handler. Built to last! Strong tubular chassis, reinforced gripping arms and bushes at all pivots points. The smooth, streamlined design of the MANUBAL helps prevent damage to plastic wrap. UNIQUE MARKET FEATURE POWER CONTROL SYSTEM Adjust the grip strength to your need! This innovative feature enables you to regulate the required grip strenght subject to the density, weight and size of the bale. This promotes easier and faster handling of bales in complete safety.
