ABSTRACT:
An apparatus to load, transport, stack, retrieve and feed bales of hay can be run by a single operator. A vehicle frame supports an operator cab forward of a tiltable bed. A track begins near the ground in front of the cab and proceeds back toward to bed to above the cab. Bales are picked up at the front of the cab and transported to above the cab along the track. Loaded bales are then released onto the bed which is inclined to meet the end of the track. Loaded bales are stacked on the ground by tilting the bed to a near vertical position and driving the apparatus away from the stack.
