WITH YEARS OF ON-FARM TESTING AND REFINEMENTS THE FARM KING 4480XD SQUARE BALE CARRIER OFFERS SIMPLIFIED OPERATION AND AN INTUITIVE DISPLAY. The Farm King 4480XD Square Bale Carrier improves it’s capacity with 9 4'x4', 18 3'x4' and 24 3'x3' bales picked per load. With full customization and the quarter turn option you can configure it to perform to your operation’s needs. The 4480XD features a host of new innovations and technology designed to increase efficiency, maximize durability and minimize bale damage. |
STRUCTURE
|
UNLOADING
|
STACKINGThe bales are stacked in tight rows. The strings are not touching the ground, which prevents prolonged exposure to surface moisture. As settling occurs, the bales rest together in a structurally sound stack. |
REDUCE STRESS
|
BALE PUSHERAfter bales are lifted onto the deck, a pusher powered by two hydraulic motors moves the bales rearward. If the pusher senses resistance from a heavier-than average bale during regular operation, it automatically shifts to ‘low’ for five seconds to provide more power to push the bale. If the bale will not move, a sensor sends a message to the monitor to alert the operator. The sensor on the pusher motor counts revolutions to efficiently measure the pushback distance. |
CHAINThe chain that powers the pusher is recessed beneath the beams so the weight of the bale is never resting fully on the chain, minimizing bale stress and limiting the chance of string breakage. |
HYDRAULICSThe bale carrier automatically adjusts its hydraulic configuration to correspond with the hydraulic system on the tractor, as selected by the operator. The bale carrier is compatible with open-center, closed-center, or load-sensing closed-center hydraulic systems. |
CARRIER ARMThe reinforced carrier arm enhances the structural integrity of the machine. Hydraulic hoses and electronic sensors have been positioned to avoid being pinched or damaged by moving parts. |
