Combining the BG6000 grapple with HLA’s BO500 universal skid-steer-style quick-attach interface, it provides a versatile solution for moving, loading and stacking hay. The grapple is rated for loads up to 2,000 lb (907 kg), opens to 84 in (2,134 mm) and accommodates square bales from 4–6 ft long or round bales from 5–6 ft in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVersatile Bale Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt to work with two common bale formats, the BG6000BO500 allows operators to handle large square and round bales without changing between separate grapple models. Its 84 in maximum opening provides the reach needed to secure the specified bale sizes, while the 2,000 lb rated capacity supports demanding hay-handling jobs around farms, storage yards and livestock operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe BO500 mounting configuration is intended for loaders equipped with a universal skid-steer-style quick-attach carrier. This common interface makes attachment and removal straightforward when moving between compatible loader implements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eArm-Locking System for Stacking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne grapple arm can be locked in a fixed position with pins, allowing all movement to occur in the opposite arm. This arrangement is especially useful when stacking bales because it gives the operator the option to control bale engagement from one side while keeping the other side stationary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe locking feature also allows the grapple configuration to be adapted to the task rather than requiring both arms to move for every bale. Whether collecting bales in the field, positioning them for transport or building an orderly stack, the BG6000 is designed to provide controlled hydraulic bale handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHydraulic loader-mounted grapple for square and round bales\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandles square bales measuring 4–6 ft long\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHandles round bales measuring 5–6 ft in diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated capacity of 2,000 lb (907 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum grapple opening of 84 in (2,134 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne arm can be pinned in a fixed position so only the opposite arm moves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLockable-arm arrangement is useful for positioning and stacking bales\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBO500 universal skid-steer-style quick-attach interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximate BG6000 base grapple weight of 590 lb (268 kg)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe BG6000BO500 is configured for loaders equipped with a universal skid-steer-style quick-attach carrier.
