I run one of the first 60 balers that put out 5 ton of hay looking like a loaf of bread. The mover trailer had a live royal deck with hydraulic tracks on the back when you tilted the trailer, it walked under the trailer as the live deck moved the stack onto the trailer. I put up 500 hay stacks all summer and 300 straw stacks. Theies stacks fed about 900 head Angus country New Norway A B About in the 70s
Heston built three different models of the Stakhand a 10 , a 30, and a 60. I can not remember the actual size and weight of each but they were really good machines especially for cattle operations. I’m from Indiana and we used a Stakhand 10 it made a 3000 pound stack, bailed fescue clover even corn fodder, a good concept. The one drawback wash you need a larger tractor to handle the weight and pto speed.
great video, thanks for taking the time to make it. i see in another comment someone wants to know how you move them, guess you'll have to make a video of that as well :) tell your boss I hope he keeps those things around and at least does a little hay that way, so cool to see it
Arthur Dewith when starting the bale, you fill the front first so the hood is not fully up, as the front is filling it is also put hay in the rest of pile in a weaving manor,. When done properly it will be a tight bale and rather difficult to separate by hand.
We finally got a video done showing how we haul the stacks. here's the RU-vid link to the video. It's on our channel. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uLXL699oe34.html

@@dagleyranch Thank You so much, that was a very informative video! The wife (a farm girl) and I sat there watching with our jaws agape repeating "I've never seen anything like that!"
