Description
HLA Attachments MFE48BO500 48-Inch Manure Fork is a loader-mounted material-handling attachment designed for manure and livestock applications. This configuration combines the 48-inch MFE48 base fork with HLA’s BO500 universal skid-steer-style quick-attach mount. Seven cranked Kverneland tines provide superior penetration, while 7.5-inch tine spacing supports effective handling of manure and other livestock materials. A flat upper frame also serves as a convenient level indicator, helping the operator judge the fork’s position during use.
Designed for Manure and Livestock Handling
The MFE48BO500 uses seven Conus I cranked Kverneland tines, each with a nominal length of 35 inches and a usable tine length of 31 inches. The cranked profile and generous working length allow the fork to penetrate and carry material while providing ample tine engagement.
At 48 inches wide, this manure fork offers a compact working width for handling material in livestock areas and other farm environments. The seven tines are arranged on 7.5-inch centers for consistent coverage across the fork. The approximate base-fork weight is 350 lb.
BO500 Quick-Attach Mount
This model is supplied in the BO500 mount configuration. The BO500 is HLA’s universal skid-steer-style loader mount and uses a quick-attach connection. It is intended for compatible skid-steer-style loader quick-attach carriers, allowing the attachment to be connected and removed without a pin-on mounting arrangement.
