IMPORTANT • Please ensure this booklet is read and understood by every operator of this machine. • Also ensure that this booklet goes with the machine if it is resold, and is read and understood by the new owner.
WARNINGS • All persons must be kept well clear of machine in operation. • Hydraulic arm must be fully down before detaching the 3 point linkage unit. • Shut the tractor off and lower machine to ground before trying to clear feed material anywhere from the machine. • Before attempting maintenance or any work, ensure the tractor engine is shut off and machine lowered to the ground. • Do not allow any person(s) to ride on the machine. • Watch carefully when driving for over-width and tail-swing when travelling through gateways or near objects or people. • Take care when operating on hilly or rutted terrain as the extra weight lessens the stability of the tractor. • Ensure the bale is secure in the feed cradle, on hilly terrain side bars may be needed.

SPECIFICATIONS FEEDER WEIGHT: 640 kg Tare. FEEDER CAPACITY: 1 Bale, 1000kg maximum. Hydraulic Requirements: Pressure: 2000 - 3000 PSI. Flow: 12 - 60 L/min (our recommended maximum flow is 25L/min). 2 x set of double acting hydraulic remotes. HOSE CONNECTIONS: Two hoses to inside lever which operates the feed chains. (1/2” QRC’s) Two hoses to lever 2 which operate the hydraulic arm. TRACTOR SIZE: Large enough to safely handle the bale feeder and 1 bale (1000kg maximum bale capacity).
WARNING! Before attempting any maintenance, ensure tractor engine is shut off, EXTENSION IS DOWN and no one is near the hydraulic controls.
MAINTENANCE (Also do this before initial operation)
•
Grease all points regularly. These are: -
8 x main feeder bearings (do not over grease)
-
Inside the hook latch contact surface.
•
Keep the 2 feed chains oiled. Use a non-tacky black or brown chain lube monthly.
•
After the first 10 hours of operation check grub screws in bearings are tight.
•
During routine servicing check that grubscrews and bolts are tight.
•
Ram shaft must be sprayed with soft seal or similar when in storage, to prevent any pitting.

OPERATING TECHNIQUES CONNECTING BALE FEEDER ONTO TRACTOR •
Tighten the sway chains.
•
With the bale feeder resting on the ground, adjust the top link so the top link pin is halfway along the slot.
•
Connect the hoses so that pulling lever 1 back feeds out to the right, and lever 2 lifts and lowers the extension arm.
•
The hydraulic flow rate should turn the drive shafts 1 turn per second. Many high flow rate tractors have an adjustable control. Use this to reduce the flow to the required rate. If there is no flow adjustment, simply operate the tractor at low rpm.
•
Some bales are more difficult than others, however the SL-450T will generally feed these out. If you do experience a problem, try feeding the bale out the other side. This will unroll the bale instead of trying to pull it apart.
•
The hydraulic flow should actuate the chains at a smooth, controlled rate i.e. not too jerky or sudden. Familiarise yourself with the hydraulic controls on the machine, using your hydraulic hand control.
LOADING BALES WRAPPED BALES
•
FIG. 1
s
• • •
For loading wrapped bales - first remove the plastic wrap only (fig. 1). NOTE: For feeding in feedlots, take note of the way the bale has been rolled up, so it unrolls like a toilet roll out to the right. Lower the hydraulic arm FULLY DOWN. De-latch the feeder cradle by pulling on the latch rope. Drive out and back into the bale. (fig.2), then lift the 3 point linkage unit and, holding the bale above the cradle, cut the net or strings. Then lower the bale onto the cradle. Withdraw out of the bale and re-latch the head stock back into the feeder cradle unit. When the latch clacks you are ready to feed. Cut ends and top of bale

‘Undress’ bale
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ALL TYPES OF ROUND BALES TO FEED • • •
Keep the feeder as level as practical - then operate the lever to start feeding out. Start feeding and travelling at the same time. On an older bale, the material tends to come off thicker or quicker. Simply stop/start the chains to minimise this. Drive in a circle slightly to the right. This helps to see the hay feeding onto the ground. Select a higher gear to achieve a thinner feed-out line if required.
INTO TROUGHS • •
Lower the hydraulic arm right down. (Below shows the feeding operation). Run your tractor along as near as practical to the trough or feed pad as you begin to feed using lever 1. If necessary, the hydraulic arm can be lifted up to 45o (but no higher when feeding) to give the precise amount of height for your application.

TROUBLE SHOOTING PROBLEM: Bale starts falling apart after removing the plastic or the net wrap, even when I try removing it carefully. SUGGESTED REMEDY: • Remove the covering just before lowering the bale onto the feed unit. • For very difficult bales, lower bale onto feed unit and remove the covering around the bale where you can, and collect the rest afterwards. PROBLEM: The chains won’t turn. SUGGESTED REMEDY: • A string still left in the bale is wrapping around the shaft causing it to jam - remove the string. • Hydraulic pressure too low - check the tractor hydraulic pressure. • Chains may need the links lubricating. PROBLEM:
Bales not staying in the feeder.
SUGGESTED REMEDY: • Slow down the feed bars. They don’t need to turn fast. • Purchase a hillside side bar kit (available from HUSTLER order code: SL-SB)
PROBLEM: Bale rotates but hay will not feed. SUGGESTED REMEDY: • Feed bale out the other side so it ‘unrolls’ correctly. • Purchase ‘aggresive teeth’ kit from HUSTLER. • Bend your existing feed teeth to a more aggresive angle forwards. PROBLEM: Need to feed square bales SUGGESTED REMEDY: • Purchase side bar kit from HUSTLER. (order code SL-SB)
