The special ergonomic design of the Mayer big bale breaker BZ 6160 facilitates efficient handling. A simple manual lift can be used for loading with conventional big bales. After removing the protective sheeting from the bale, the hopper can be tilted into the dosing position by means of the integrated hydraulic system. Using a manual lift it is easy to move the machine into the desired position. The chassis is equipped with solid rubber tires. Using a hopper extension, the basic model of the big bale breaker can take even larger bales up to 2.70 M high.
