Hay bale travels up incline-elevatorand tips down onto horizontal mow conveyor.WrongHay Bale #1Horizontal ConveyorHay Bale #2Incline ElevatorIncline-elevator sprocket A is lower than horizontal mow conveyorsprocket B . Hay bale #1 travels up incline elevator and tips part way towardhorizontal mow conveyor, but not completely onto horizontal mow conveyor.As a result, the horizontal mow conveyor chain cannot pull bale off inclineelevator.As bale #1 teeters at transfer point, chains spin through baleunderside (possibly breaking strings). Hay bale #2 then travels up inclineelevatorand pushes bale #1 onto mow conveyor, or up in the air, or overmow conveyor side. Bale #2 may roll backwards down elevator.11160412170
