Retractable bale hook design eliminates bale spear accidents and stack push-over; easily attaches to skid-loaders and tractors.

Loading and transporting large square bales becomes safe and efficient with the Hydra Grabber™ loader attachment. The simple but effective design of this machine engages bales from any side. By eliminating the need to “spear” bales, the Hydra Grabber™ prevents the damage to buildings, trucks and trailers that can result from pushing into stacks. Hydraulic power provides rapid engagement and retraction of the aggressive bale hooks. With the hooks retracted, the operator simply places the machine in contact with the selected bale face. Stack push-over is no longer a concern, as the bale hooks move from fully retracted to fully embedded in the bale only after the loader is no longer in motion. Stacking on trucks, trailers or in barns becomes fast and simple. After bales are in position, the hooks are hydraulically retracted, releasing the bales. The dangerous problem of pulling the stack back on the loader is prevented, improving safety and efficiency. When equipped with the Hydra Grabber™, most tractor loaders become capable of loading and unloading an entire truck or trailer from one side, resulting in significant time savings.
