We have that kramer and the features on it such as the boom in when putting it down, the “pallet” mode, the shake mode and the tip function we hardly use it’s just easy to do it manually you have more control over it
Kramer is owned by waker neuson group in Austria, they built the claas scorpion along with the cat agri telehandler and also the new Massey Ferguson telehandler is based around the Kramer
What size bale is the best all depends on your operation. The layout of your stables/barnes and the way you have to handle them. If i look at the bales you stacked in your barn in this vid, the size is right. With the more normal size of 240/250cm x120cm x 90cm (LxWxH) you could'nt fit as much tons as you do now (well as far as i can see from the video of course). We use about a 240/250x120x90-bale per day (we have about 50 to 60 horses indoors in the winter), an averege since we only muck out once a week for the sport horses or once every other week for the young horses. This summer our straw supplier baled ehm in 220/230x120x70, so we'll see how that works, they look like they have a decent amount of straw in em. I handle them by tractor with an old forklift-lift on the 3-point with spikes. And we put em on an electric wagon to put it in the stables. Round bales wouldn't work in our situation. For feeding we use hay wrapped in bales with the size 160x120x70, again we put em on a cart so a round bale wouldn't work as well. Also since we bale around 500/550 bales, you can stack em more compact compared to round bales. Well, at least that's my view on this :D. The only downside is that the pressing and wrapping of square bales is a bit more expensive over round bales I believe. But at around 17,50 per bale for the baling, wrapping and stacking them in our yard, it's not too bad i think. just my 2 cents ;), Cheers
Wish John Deere would do the same thing Claas did and have a 50/50 design input into these machines. The cab looks messy to me and I don't think the joystick layout is logical either but if JD collaborated on this it could be the perfect machine. The extra features like pallet and automatic shaking modes just seem gimmicky IMO and any proper operator will want full control of the machine, obviously you don't have to use them but they all add to the price. A big thing for me is how well air conditioned the cab is also, older machines never seem to achieve a good air flow or ability to maintain temperature. If I were buying one tomorrow though it'd be between this and the new JCBs
People in my opinion really don't give the new claas scorpions a good enough look, the kramer cab is soo clostraphobic, and the new liebherr scorpions share a lot of the components found in this machine as the kramer machine was 50% claas designed, and so is the new liebherr one.
easy bale baron straw packs 21 bales in a pack and can be handled with a bale spike or grab but can be handled easily by the horse peopkle we bale and sell over 2000 acres of straw and hay/haylage for horses with 2 massey 1840 inlines and baron 4240's
@@6skip838bandits are death traps which make the job so much harder than it needs to be, like why do the bales have to be lifted up and over the plunger, the packs use those stupid metal bands rather than big baler string, you cant just throw them away and you cant retie a pack either, the lorry drivers used to hate them as well cos if your not careful the bands could cut the bloody straps on the trailer, hopeless machines, i should no being a warwickshire farmer so everyone is using barons for small bales
My sister has two horses which I help with and we use Heston for hay bales and conventional bales for straw but mught be going for Heston bales for both
