With Avant and bale grab you are able to pile three round bales on top of each other. Sturdy, yet lightweight construction allows best possible effective load that depends on the model of the loader.
4(12) • Ensure that the unattached bale grab is supported properly and ensure that the attachment is properly supported during all inspection and maintenance procedures. • Pay attention to the surroundings and any other persons and machines moving in the vicinity.
These instructions are applicable to mounting the attachment to the boom quick attach plate of AVANT loaders that have standard quick attach locking. If your machine is equipped with a hydraulic locking and/or serial quick attach system, refer to the relevant manuals for additional mounting instructions.

The angle between the loader front plate and attachment coupling should be about as shown in the adjacent picture. • Drive the loader onto the attachment. If your loader is equipped with a telescopic boom, you can utilise this.

Dirt, ice, etc. may make using the fittings significantly more difficult. Note that the protective caps on the loader and the attachment can be fastened to each other during operation to reduce the accumulation of dirt.
If there are signs of leaking, to check the component, hold up a piece of cardboard in the area where a leak is suspected. Finding any of these faults means that the hydraulic hose or component must be replaced. Spare parts are available from your nearest AVANT retailer or service point.
