I get it, this is one of those times where it’s difficult to justify a purchase in dollars and cent but you know the value yourself in streamlining an operation, particularly when you do most to everything on your own, that makes the operation just work and dare I say it, actually enjoyable. My father always used to say ‘ a little bit of something you like is sometimes the best investment you can make’

Dennis, I really like the way you are always working on improving your operation. Over the time I have been following this channel there has been continual improvement and gains in efficiency with an occasional glitch, followed by some adjustments and further improvements to overcome the glitches. Your determination is admiral and over time I have been impressed with the outcomes. Your efforts have been helpful to me and probably to other viewers.

Hi Dennis watched this when it came out and thought I would make a comment Called Kuhn,s in mid August about info about this unit as I have no dealers in my are , was interested in buying one next spring, well that called changed my time line as I was informed that they where (Kuhns ) were going to have to increase the price as of October 1st, do to increases in materials, so ordered one to be picked October 12th by myself ,while there got talking with the owner and he told me that the knotter was made in West Germany Nice people over there at the factory, treated me as a friend and answered my questions 1500 miles in 2 days round trip plus tolls 🤬 but came out way ahead $$ wise , now it sits in my shed till next year PS Bought my Kuhns equipment after finding your videos while doing a search for small bale accumulators Thanks for telling your honest opinion and thoughts Maybe in my travels I will look you up Best regards

I have the same grabber on order , I hope it speeds up travel time hauling loads back to the barn, in the past I spend to much time either driving really slow or strapping loads down to keep bales from falling off and that eats up valuable time and as you know when it comes to making hay time is everything
@DLHFarms
@DLHFarms 3 года назад

@dehavenfamilyfarm
@dehavenfamilyfarm 3 года назад
Interesting! I think they need to re-time things a bit to let the unit squeeze the bales before the hooks go in. Also, knotters can be a royal pain, so I am not sure I like that it uses one. I wonder if they could use the plastic material that is sometimes used to hold stuff to pallets in shipping- can't think of what its called. That would eliminate the knotter and possibly keep things tighter. Or maybe I am over thinking things LOL
@nicklambing9268
@nicklambing9268 3 года назад
I was thinking the same thing regarding the hook and squeeze relationship. Completing the squeeze prior to injecting the hooks might make a tighter pack. We just call that plastic material plastic wrap around here, for what it is worth. Nick, North West Farmer
@DLHFarms
@DLHFarms 3 года назад
You don’t want that plastic shipping rap touching your hay it won’t let it breathe then it will sweat and mold even if it was dry hay.
@DLHFarms
@DLHFarms 3 года назад
Also those sequencing valves can be adjusted if your not happy with how much pressure the squeeze are is putting on the hay but remember it’s not really about how tight it is it just keeps hay from falling out of the pack while in a stack.

The knotter is made by Rasspe a German company. This is the American importer is www.groupschumacher.com/north-america/schumacherlc/brands/rasspe/ , but all your parts can be bought through your local dealer or Kuhns' Mfg. I have the great pleasure of selling the Kuhns' Mfg product set in the UK and elsewhere and to quote one of my customers "its the products that give him the least hassle on the farm." The Tie Grabbers are awesome along with standard grabbers, and the accumulators. I have a KN510 (the on edge version of the above) arriving in the UK for the start of the season. Please don't hesitate to message me with any questions here, or at, www.thesmallbalecompany.co.uk I hope y'all have a great season. Mark 👍

@DLHFarms

Shouldn’t slow down the process at all it ties very fast and can be done while driving the tractor to the trailer after picking up the pack. Once tied it will make the stacked very stable on the trailer or in the barn.

Great video I have been thinking about this I’ll be riveted to my screen watching how it goes. It’ll eliminate the worry of driving out of my rough field and strapping down the trailer. I switched to the same twine last year 170 it worked flawless. Is the squeeze and the tines the same function?

Yes squeeze and hooks are the same function but they use a sequencing valve and it could be adjusted to make more or less squeeze on the bales before hooking.

How did your pallet idea work out? I came across some inexpensive 7.5ft pallets and I was planning on screwing them together for the correct width . Then staging them in one of my fields that right next to the hay storage barn. Placing them around the pasture and then forking 40 or 50 bales at a time instead of 70 trips with 10 bales. I’m using the kuhns accumulator and there standard non tye grabber. Are your pallets holding up ok ?and how many bales do you think would be good for hauling around fields that are not that smooth?
@DLHFarms
@DLHFarms 3 года назад
I love my pallets but I’ve only moved them empty. If your going to handle them loaded you need long forks. You might could put 40 or 50 on one without them falling off, if you had this tie grabber I’m sure you could put more on it.
