They'd hold their shape better alright I'd say but on their sides, you'd be sealing up the middle ones when they sink into each other. Not much air left in there between them. Maybe on their ends keeps the a bit better if you do have a few over until the start of the next winter?

Generally go 5 high around here so stacking on their ends wouldn't be an option. Ones that are baled a bit wet get fairly squashed on the bottom but there'd be ones baled grand and dry that hardly sink or deform at all even with the 5 high.Well they obviously sink, but I mean the bottom row are still round and not pancaked

Does anyone here stack theirs fcuked in a heap? I notice it in a fair few yards I pass and was wondering how it was achieved and what were the particular advantages?

With wet bales if stacked three high on uneven ground they can collapse pretty handy

Yeah she came back yesterday. Rung a bolt putting the moscha back on so no work done yet. I'd say the recent be much work done till next week the way the ground is around here. Couldn't play with it either as I didnt power up the computer so the hydraulics wont work. Maybe tomorrow

Is there a bit of stripping involved to be able to open the access hatch? Is it still hinged, for opening?

funkey_monkey

Looks well. Any idea as to what weight it is?

Not knowing much about these, how good are maserator.

Does anyone still produce dribble bars without a without a maserator, like this.

None at all. The hatch is just bolted on as normal. Very little of the dribble bar needs to be dismantled

Think it's about 500kg. Well the macerator is built in house. 2 years warranty to contractors and 3 years to farmers. Was told to rebuild the macerator with all internal parts would cost roughly €400 inc

Anyone use a Sealey battery greaser? Seem well priced but would I just be better off splashing out on a better model?

emaherx

It's ready

Base price

Best of luck with it and safe travelling.

funkey_monkey

Great looking trailer. All the best with it.

Don't know. You normally need to invest in battery stuff for it to not break your heart. I have a dewalt one because it is all dewalt battery stuff I have. At least there is always a fully charged battery there.

I bought it to replace an old Macnaught K29 that was worn out to hell. I really miss not being able to know the implement is greased by the resistance on the handle. It is a godsend for greasing a loader or baler, but crap for PTO shafts.

Got an email from Irish garage equipment advertising an Induction bolt heater. Looks a good yoke. Anyone any experience of 1 ??

A dribble bar without 1 would be a nightmare unless your spreading only water, and for yourself. No pallets.

I try make silage from the best quality grass I can, Contractor wraps them with a fusion. I stack them on end with a soft hands and about three days later, they fall all over the place, the abuse I get from neighbours and my contractor is unreal.

When baling third cut, the baler man said he would stack the bales, and guess what, they fell all over the place.

With soft lush bales, I don't think they can be double stacked.

No, short grass bales will always turn into mushrooms

Aftergrass will flatten.
Main reason we got a rake to make a well formed bale in aftergrass. I pull the wrapper behind the baler and whatever about them flattening in the stack, real pain not hitting the wrapper square.
