Norden Mfg (877-296-5851) 4 AF4 Hay Accumulator
1. Introduction
Using no hydraulics or electronics, the Norden Hay
Accumulator automatically arranges bales into
groups that can then be picked up with a Grabber
mounted on a loader. Handling multiple bales of
hay at one time allows wagons to be loaded more
quickly, as well as quicker stacking in the barn.
Please read the manual carefully to become
familiar with your new Norden Hay Accumulator.
This manual has been developed through our
experience with the equipment and feedback from
our customers. Ultimately it is our desire that you will
be operating your Hay Accumulator as a seasoned
professional in no time!

Do not use this Hay Accumulator for any other
purpose than its intended use of arranging bales into
groups that can then be picked up with Grabbers.
1.2 Operator Orientation
The directions left, right, front, and rear, as
mentioned throughout this manual, are as seen from
the tractor operator’s seat and facing in the direction
of travel.
1.3 Specifications
Overall Width 88"
Overall Length 155"
Overall Height 84”
Overall Weight 1300 lb.
Bale Capacity 4
Bale Size 14 x 18” or 16 x 18”,
32 to 40” long

eye, and lift the accumulator bed assembly. It will
tip backwards as shown. The accumulator bed
assembly weighs approximately 600 pounds.
KN-00010
WARNING
Crush Hazard
The accumulator bed weighs
approximately 600 pounds and can cause
serious injury or death if it falls on a person.
Use a lifting device with adequate capacity to
support the accumulator bed. Use extreme
caution when working under the accumulator
bed when it is supported by a lifting device.
3. With the bed tipped up as shown, attach the axle
frames using eight 1/2 x 3” bolts and serrated
ange nuts provided. Make sure the axle frames
are installed on the correct side, as shown.
Tighten to the proper torque value.
Note: Refer to “9.7 Standard Torque Values” on
page 34 for the proper torque value for all
fasteners.
KN-00011
