"My concern after having bought the SL-350 is that I may not live long enough to wear this machine out because it is so well constructed!  I have rated it on the standard and poor scale as AA+.  Looking forward to heavier weights in the cattle next year!"

ROUND BALEFEEDER

The SL-350™ balefeeder is a 3 point linkage mounted single balefeeder suitable for all types of round bales, even 5’ long.

The unit weighs just 460 kilograms and will feed out both sides.

SELF-LOADING

Loading the SL-350 is very simple using our proven self-loading system. First the feeding cradle is disconnected by the pull of a rope. The tractor backs up and picks up the bale and moves it to the platform. The operator can then stop to remove the net wrap before placing the bale on the platform. Its very low cradle with no crossbar makes bale loading easy and quick. The operator then drives the forks into the feed unit, easy to line up correctly because of its unequal length tynes, and is now ready to feed out.
