4 Quick Pick Decals Please study decals and understand their meanings before using this machine. 4

5 Setup and Operation Instructions Set-Up The only set up adjustments required are setting the height of the hitch and hydraulic flow to the cylinders. The unit is designed to run level or a little bit lower on the front end. We suggest that you locate the tongue assembly so that you have 12 to 13 from the ground to the bottom of the hitch. We recommend that the hydraulic flow to the chambers be set so that it takes 10 seconds to fold a chamber from completely down to the folded position. Check the wheel bolts, tighten to 125 lbs torque. Check again after first day of use. The tires should be inflated to 50 psi. Operation Loading the Machine: The unit is designed to load the bales with both chambers lowered. Bale being loaded Bale being carried Next bale to be loaded. 5

6 Load the unit evenly so that one bale in the right chamber means the left chamber gets the next one. In certain conditions 3 on one side and 5 on the other will not be a problem. However in hilly conditions or poor field conditions it is possible to roll the unit over if it is not loaded properly. The unit will roll over if there are to many bales on one side and not the other. Always load the front of the chambers first. Load the chamber so that the bale you just picked stops at the front of the chamber. The loading bale should be carried at this location in the chamber. The loaded bale in the front of the chamber will help align the incoming bale. Load the chamber front to back as shown in the picture below. Loading in this manner will prevent the bales already loaded in the chamber from dragging on the ground while loading another bale. What in fact happens is that each time a bale is loaded all the bales in that chamber are set back down on the ground and the chamber slides over all of them. Once the new bale is in the front of the chamber the chamber is then picked up again. It may take an operator awhile to perfect the technique but after mastering it the ease and speed of the unit is quite impressive. Depending on the hayfield it is possible load bales at 4 mph+. When an operator starts out it is best to clutch each time a bale is loaded. Again we want the bale being loaded to stop at the entrance of the chamber and stay there until the next bale to be loaded touches it. Mastering the technique of operating the HAUKAAS Bale Mover is like most things. First you get good, and then you get fast. Load front of chamber first 6

7 In striving to make the unit as user friendly as possible we have added a height indicator to help the operator determine the proper operating heights. Top indicator Preload/Unload position Bottom indicator Carry position When moving from bale to bale have the chamber raised to the Carry position. The chamber should be high enough that most of the weight of the loaded bales is being carried by the inside runner. As you line up the unit parallel with the bale to be picked lower the chamber to the Preload/Unload position. The loaded bales should just begin to touch the ground. When the bale being loaded comes in contact with the bale already loaded lower the chamber all the way down. The bales riding in the chamber will be set back down on the ground and the chamber will move over them and the bale being loaded as well. When the bale being loaded enters the front of the chamber then raise the chamber to the Carry position again. If everything is done right the bales riding in the chamber never drag. It seems easiest to load the chamber on the inside of a turn. Always allow yourself lots of room to line up with the bale. You will want the trailer (not the tractor) to be parallel to the side of the bale. Whenever possible use the inside side rail to line up and bump bale. The inside side rail is the easiest to see and when the inside runner runs under the bale it will roll the bale into alignment with the chamber. If the chamber is too high when loading a bale and the outside runner hits the bale high it will turn the bale around or worse yet scar the bale. Using the height indicator should eliminate this. The chamber runners are designed to align the bale with the chamber from the bottom side of the bale not the side. Outside runner hit the bale to high causing a scar. If you are not lined up properly with the bale the unit will turn and skid the bale as it is entering the chamber. In this case back away from the bale and get better lined up. Sometimes it works best to go around the bale and pick it up from the other side. 7

8 As you load the last bale into each chamber take care not to exert too much force on the rear gate. Slow down and allow the bales to tighten up against each other in the chamber. Make sure that all the bales are to the rear of the chamber before folding into full transport. A bale to far forward in the chamber may come in contact with the front bale stop cross bar when folding the chamber up. After the unit is loaded you can transport the bales with the chambers either fully up or in the carrying position. If the field is rough or you have a long distance to travel fold the unit up. If you are dropping the bales close by just move the bales in the carry position. It is best to fold the chamber up at the same time and unfold them at the same time and only on level ground. When gathering bales to a central location start by picking the bales the farthest distance away and work towards the drop spot. By doing this you will be traveling the farthest distance the fastest and the lightest which means the easiest life for the unit. The shortest haul will be fully loaded. You will also find this method the most relaxing and efficient way to load the unit. You will also find this method cause less damage to your hay field by making fewer roads in the field. The unit is very well designed and durable but still slow down and take care when traveling through a wash-outs or ditches. Remember you are carrying a lot of weight. The ease of picking up bale begins at baling. It works best when baling to start 3 rows in from the edge of the field and then go back and bale rounds two and one discharging the bales at least 3 round in from the out side edge of the field. Picking up a bale against a fence can be tough. You may have to back into it with the rear gate open but it can be done. It is possible to turn a bale by running into the end of the bale with the front tire of the tractor. You would not want to make a practice of it but it can be done? Unloading the Machine: Always unload the bales on level ground. To unload (after the initial load is placed): 1. Come to a complete stop with your tractor and load lined up with the previous load already placed. 2. Fold down both chambers at the same time completely to the ground (do not stop part way). 3. Raise both chambers to the carry position and drive forward until the bales being carried are 8 to 12 away from the previously unloaded bales. 4. Lower the chambers to the preload/unload position. 5. Drive forward until bales being carried touch the bales from the previous load and then back away. Quick Pick Features: Shear Bolt Protection The unit has a shear bolt at the Rear Gate. The shear bolts are designed to shear before damage is caused to the unit. Even with shear bolt protection operator care is required when unloading. Gently bring the bales to be unloaded up to the bales from the previous load. Speed and power will cause the shear bolts to break. Extra shear bolts are located on the Rear Gate. The Shear Bolts are 1/2 x 2-1/2 Grade 5 Hex Bolts. 8

9 Runner Width Adjustment The unit is designed to accept bales ranging from 48 to 72 in diameter. The runners on the chambers are adjustable allowing you to change the width of the bottom of the chamber as required. If the runners are to wide apart the chambers will have to be lifted quite high to get the bales off the ground making loading the bales difficult. Maintenance Grease the hinge sleeves and cylinder top pins daily. (See grease point page) Grease walking axles and cylinder bottom pins weekly. (See grease point page) Check tire pressure (50 psi.) and wheel bolts weekly. Limitations of the unit: The unit has been designed to work at its full capacity with tractors which have a hydraulic operating pressure of 2300 lbs. psi or more. (1650 lbs bales) The distance between the chambers on the unit is 11 7 making it difficult to use a tractor with duals. The design and operation of the unit does not work well with bi-directional tractors. The excessive side to side movement of the rear hitch on the tractor can be a problem for the chambers.
