Rear Cut Patents (Class 56/268)
  • Patent number: 5544822
    Abstract: A hay cutter and fork lift implement are mounted on the three point hitch of a tractor with a hydraulic cylinder interconnecting the inner ends of the hay cutter assembly and the fork lift assembly for applying equal and opposite pressure on each, such that when the cutter assembly reaches the limits of its downward travel by engaging the ground or being resisted by the hay being cut, the fork assembly will automatically pivot upwardly thereby raising the bale off the ground, allowing the cutting operation to be completed.
