ABSTRACT:
A hay bale transport has a frame consisting of a plurality of spaced inverted U-shaped frame members which are secured together in spaced parallel relation by elongated beams extending along the lower ends thereof. An elongated longitudinal alley space exists within the frame for receiving a plurality of bales to be transported. Spaced elongated bale supporting rails extend within the frame and are secured to the beams. Wheels are secured to the frame and are connected to a power unit for raising or lowering the frame with respect to a ground surface whereby bales within the alley can be raised or lowered with respect to the ground surface. An operating cab is movably secured to one of the inverted U-shaped frame members and is normally positioned within the alley, but is connected to another power unit so that the cab can be laterally moved out of the alley while the bales are being picked up, transported, and discharged.
