This configuration combines the BG7000 bale squeeze with HLA’s BO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach mount. Its slim brace-arm design helps operators place bales closely together, while a 3,000 lb rated capacity and dual hydraulic cylinders provide the capability required for demanding bale-handling work. With an opening range from 30 to 86 inches, the attachment can open wide for bale engagement and retract to a compact 30-inch width.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEfficient Square-Bale Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe BG7000BO500 uses two hydraulic cylinders to open and close its squeeze arms. Each cylinder measures 2.5 inches in diameter and has a 28-inch stroke. Together, the dual-cylinder arrangement controls the attachment’s long arms, which measure 50 inches long by 20 inches tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA slim brace-arm profile is a key feature of the BG7000 design. The reduced-profile bracing permits tight bale stacking, making the attachment well suited to arranging square bales in storage areas or other locations where closely placed stacks are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWide Opening Range\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bale squeeze has a maximum opening of 86 inches and retracts to 30 inches wide. This 30-to-86-inch operating range gives the attachment substantial travel for engaging and releasing square bales. When fully retracted, the 30-inch width also provides a compact attachment profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith an approximate attachment weight of 810 lb and a rated capacity of 3,000 lb, the BG7000BO500 is built for loader-mounted hay and bale handling. The BO500 mounting interface allows it to connect to universal skid-steer quick-attach carriers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHydraulic square-bale squeeze for loader-mounted bale handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3,000 lb rated capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum opening of 86 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRetracted width of 30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlim brace-arm design permits tight bale stacking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo 2.5-inch by 28-inch-stroke hydraulic cylinders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLarge arms measuring 50 inches long by 20 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach mounting interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximate attachment weight of 810 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOptional hydraulic hose and hose-support kits available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe BG7000BO500 is configured with the BO500 universal skid-steer quick-attach interface and is compatible with universal skid-steer quick-attach carriers.
