ABSTRACT:
A fork lift for carrying large hay bales in combination with a feed rack comprising barred panels through which animals are able to feed on the bales. The lift is coupled to the three point hitch of a tractor and backed against the feed rack to position the rack around the bale and to insert the forks of the lift beneath the bale. The lift includes notched arms which lift the feed rack above the ground when the lift is raised for transport of the bale. Lowering of the lift deposits the bale on the ground within the feed rack and automatically uncouples the lift from the rack.
