ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is provided which may be added onto a conventional front-end loader having a pivoted bucket to facilitate the handling of bales such as bales of hay. The apparatus utilizes a grapple, and coupling components which interact between the grapple and the bucket in a manner whereby, when the bucket is pivoted to a lower position, the grapple automatically and synchronously swings upwardly away from the bucket, and when the bucket is pivoted to an upper position, the grapple automatically and synchronously swings downwardly toward the bucket.
