Welk bedrijf en waar? :)

Persoons uit Maarkedal?

I thought the same thing Derek. I used to be a trucker and that is a lot of weight on one steer dolly.

Well I know nothing about baling but I'd say for loading purposes?

MrFakit haha Yrh I get that but you can edge your bottom bales and then put 3 on top the normal way so you can get 36 bales on , but there’s more then 1 way to skin a can I suppose

To prevent twine from rotting.

i do not think twine rot is a problem.. its all plastic twine on LSB..

That's what I thought too, plastic twine won't rot. I have never even seen something else then plastic twine on big bales. At my work we process every year about 15000 tons of straw. Sometimes the straw bales from the United Kingdom are turned on the side, but I never know why.

+CATGVO hesstons turned over like that are slightly lower than they would be stacked three high they way they come out of the baler

Yea you are right I tipt a few over and restacked them, it's about 1,5 to 2 inch each bale (atleast at the rapeseed bales we had).

Weight to keep front down

+Farmer Ash why have a press rather than a weight and that tractor doesn't really need a. Weight to pull the trailer as it is an articulated trailer

Will Hallam Its cheaper if you has 1 item which does multiple tasks rather than 2 things... I suspect he kept it on because its easier

To flatten the swath down when he is bailing

Will Hallam Regardless of weight transfer from the trailer/dolly tongue, more weight on the front of the tractor gives more traction to the front tires and delivers more drawbar pull. Also, some of the trailers may not have dollys, and the counterweight would be necessary. If that tractor was pulling a big baler, the wheels might be needed to flatten a tall windrow and keep it from getting balled up under the tractor.

i just cant not one bit i think they are about 200-300 kg each
