Start-Up
Here are the steps to start using your TRB trailer.
1. Attach the trailer to the tractor.
2. Lift up the jack
3. Connect the 6 hydraulic hoses to the tractor (or the 4 hydraulic hoses and the
selection valve to the tractor’s 12 V current).
Note that the utmost cleanliness is recommended whenever you connect these
parts to avoid oil contamination problems.
4. Check that the hoses are properly placed between the tractor and the trailer so that
they won’t twist, get stuck, or wear out prematurely during operation.
5. Check the adjustments of the trailer based on the dimensions of the bales to be
transported.
6. Remove the U-shaped retainer from the cylinder of the loading arm (see 8Figure 2.1).
7. Pull the hydraulic controls one by one to make sure that each hose is connected to
the right place.
8. Raise the loading arm.
The trailer is ready to load and transport bales.
Loading Bales
The TRB trailer can rotate the bales in order to load them. You can use the inner or outer fork
to turn the bale before threading it onto the two forks. This action is performed without
needing to immobilize the tractor. Figure 5.1 illustrates the position of a bale in the forks of the
loading arm.
Using the outer fork to position the bales allows the operator to move bales farther with the
tractor. With the inner fork, the operator better sees the movement of the fork.
