ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for lifting and carrying large cylindrical hay blades weighing up to 1500 pounds. The apparatus includes a support bar which connects to the conventional three-point hitch of a tractor by means of a flange on the end of said support bar and two support members which are attached to flange near the center of said support bar. The other end of the support bar is connected to a bale-carrying assembly, which includes a vertical member, a horizontal member attached perpendicularly to the bottom of the vertical member, and fork portions connected one to each end of the horizontal member. The angle of the bale-carrying assembly with respect to the support bar is controlled by means of a hydraulic cylinder connected between the two, and controlled from the tractor.
