Sure wish we would have had a grabber years ago when I was a kid...man all the bales we bucked, whew! But it built character and a work ethic in us😂 great vid keep the content coming 👍🇺🇸
The baler my uncle used had something wrong with the length measurements. One would be a standard bale, the next one about a foot longer, then came a monster bale about 6 feet long and 150 lbs. Kinda hard to buck that 2 string bale that outweighed me by 30 lbs when I was 13.
Ur in trouble if you think that tractor is too lite, too lite is too lite in everything about that tractor. Break downs will follow and probably very soon. I am retired hay farmer, i used an older system like urs but even back then too small was a disaster in the waiting. U need to run from that size tractor fast, not doing so will cost you more very soon. Do not be like me, set the ego aside and get the tractor u know will do the job, then go one bigger. Praying for you to work this out. Great content....
maybe using something like Agri-Speed Hitch or similar -- would allow you to quickly move the wagons as you load instead of having to run back with each group of bales -- a farmer I used to work for bought a set of these hitches and it sure made swapping chopper wagons in the field a lot easier -- unhook and hook right from the tractor seat
We used sets of quick hitch mainly for silage work, the farmer bought new trailers with axle right on the rear end, swinging shoe type leg on the hitch end to keep the hitch eye 1ft off the ground when we dropped the trailers. The tractors user the plough arms and the silage cutter had a system fitted. After a while we could gauge where the empty would be needed, so another time saver.

Look like to me you are done pretty good job operating it my friend that is The only way to pick up Bales of hay I sure have picked up a lot of hay out in a field I used to hate putting it In a Bob truck back in them days I would make $40 dollars I thought I had a lot Of money back in the 80s that wouldn’t go to far nowadays the Job I like was being the tractor driver running down the field as they loaded be safe
Sure have learned a lot about tractors, Dennis, just listening to you talk. Thanks so much for all the excellent information; it has been tremendously helpful and enjoyable!
Your getting the hang of it, Dennis. Shannon is doing a great job bailing the hay with the John Deere. Your both so lucky to be living in beautiful Countryside.
Great your business is growing and you have your new machinary Dennis.The only thing machinary gets bigger heavier and hard to Drive .As you know would look forward to the day if you managed to get the 5711 Dyna 4 be great if you could keep 4710 also be well set up tractor wise then Dennis .mike
quick easy,and cheap fix for weight is get a 3point bale spear,take an old round bale pick it up on the rear.problem solved for now.thats impressive to be moving 20000 pounds with that tractor,be careful goig down hills stoping could be the trick.
Ooh" Dennis, you make it look so easy. I really like you baler. I would like to have a newer model, but I guess I'll just have to keep the Hayliner 268 going. The girl getting wore out and harder to find parts for her. But I do like my round baler to. Its a Kubota and takes some of the extra work out of haying. Square bales still the old way thats why I don't do as many of them anymore as I'm by myself. Enjoy the video's.
Dennis, I believe you can move the tying arm back to the right as soon as you finish the stroke to the left. It should tie and cut the twine as soon as you make the stroke.Pick up, tie, return the arm, place the bales, pick up, repeat...
Hi you'll get used to it. 65 lbs seems like a heavy bale. The baler seems to need some shining up the different length bales. Way different than the days of hand bombing bales. Enjoyed your video thankyou. Have a good day
The moisture was higher than I would like but had to get it up because of the weather. This is where using hay preservative is key, the hay turned out really nice.
@@DLHFarms With the preservative do the bales still heat up? When we had heavy hay as I call it we would mow the hay away and spread salt if there were alot.
Thanks for sharing. I am running an 8 bale pack and have to transport from field to barn. I am hoping to get a tie grabber eventually to make transport less stressful.
I just bought a 2025r I’ve been using it to move 4x5 round bales off the field handles them good picks them up on to a goose neck just fine got to spear low though lol
usually the tractor is hooked to a rake then it gets unhooked at whatever field it’s at and put to handling bales a 3pt weight would be something else I would have to haul out to the field then install which takes valuable time when your trying to beat the rain.
I have the same grabber, I have it on a new holland ls180 skid steer, it does fine with it I stack 6 high but my bales are only 55 lbs. It is a expensive grabber but it is worth it Im just getting started for the season and have loaded a little over 2000 bales with it and havent lost a bale of the wagon yet
The grabber looks like it is doing a great job. I used to do what you are doing but with a machine weighing approx 140,000 lbs Pickup and moving 40 foot and 20 foot over seas Containers at a railroad yard here in Ontario Canada. You just need a few more hours working with it and you will get pretty darn fast. Too bad the grabber wasn't turned the other way. would make it lighter on your front end.
Wheel weights would be best but maby the grab is just a little to heavy in general for your tractor loader setup. If you buy the grab you'll need to add the cost of ballast to the price also. Maby better suited to forklift mast type setup? 🤔 Good video with good work 👍 Stay safe 🏴
Happy weekend from Sweden y'all! Get wheel weights and let your wifee drive the Tie Grabber. They are always better on do simultaneous things, Dennis! Curious question: Can't you have your pallets already on one or two of the wagons?
That is something I’ve been thinking about to help with unloading. Still trying to figure out the best way to keep pallets on the trailer while they are empty. Straps are too time consuming.
@@DLHFarms Use HD stretch rubber cords for truck tarpaulins and double fix them on the load bed over two opposite corners of each pallet. Easy to pull out by hand even when loaded with bales. (Don't forget to undo them before you offload, Dennis :) Not my Farmer Ingenuity - because we also do small bales for horses here in Sweden! Or we use Self loading Bale carts as here the most common Italian OMAS 170/S.
@@DLHFarms Here you can see a multiple part YT video on these OMAS: th-cam.com/video/4_LUSVmvQjU/w-d-xo.html As you can see even a small MF can haul it! :D
I can see why it's a good idea and I hope it works out for you the way you want , but personally, I think it's overly complicating a fairly straight forward job, but as I said. I hope it works well for you and makes your job easier 👍
Yes it complicates things some but helps a lot in other ways. Like giving you peace of mind when you take off down a steep rough field then out onto the road and your bales are still securely on the trailer.
@@DLHFarms if it saves you having to rope each load and gives you piece of mind , then it's well worth it. Best of luck with it. Anything that makes working with small bales easier is got to be a step in the right direction 👍
Hey Dennis enjoyed watching. What does the tie’n up of the bales really help for the money you spent? Sure bets picking up by hand, as I did as a boy. Looks like a good crop of hay. Thanks 🙏
I’ve got 3 weights on each side think they’re 110lbs each.. ?? Also my 4710 has 34” rubber with tires filled so that might add Lil more weight also if yours has 30” rubber?? Great lil tractor
Do you have SoftDrive on the Loader? When Lifting those heavy loads it will allow loader to absorb the load versus transferring to the tractor. I have customers that say it reduces the lifting of rear tires since it the loader absorbs the bounce and reduces transferring that force to the tractor. Still probably need to add some more ballast or pickup something on 3 Poitn hitch but man it takes the shake out of the tractors when lifting heavy loads.
Dennis...great channel...I have a farm in Halifax, VA and help a friend get up hay in Bedford. Looking at upgrading from NH PowerStar 75 to NH T5.130 Dynamic Command or Massie 5713SL...since you run both brands, I'd like your input...
So why is this preferred over a new holland bale wagon. Seems like a bale wagon is easier and doesn’t require a second loader tractor to unload at the yard.
@@russellfitzpatrick7562 turn the draft control knob all the way counter-clockwise. It’s above the key that starts the engine. If that doesn’t work it may need to be calibrated.
Have y’all been getting rain out there. We have been blessed with some decent rain out here. The. Current weather forecast is calling for “47%” on Tuesday and 50% on Wednesday. I really want to finish my 1st cutting ( about 30 more acres) but I usually like to cut and cure hay with a less than 35% chance of rain. I’m really convinced the meteorologist in this country are a bunch of crackheads . They predict clear weather and it rains , they predict rain and we have sunshine.
Hey Dennis, is it possible to get rear wheel weights on that Massey Ferguson. I don’t know the whole setup you have on that tractor I’m just wondering.
@@DLHFarms What I would be more afraid of is going downhill with 10-tons+ pushing. My brother had a tractor break traction going downhill with a load of firewood. He rode it all the way down the hill...stopped a few feet short of crashing into the house.

Yep that’s what I did when I was a kid too.
Been there and done that, plus the farmer screwed that compaction lever way down, so the bales were heavier than hell.

Can’t really do that without having to lug something else out the the feild because the tractor typically has a rake on it when it goes to the field.

Correct
Did you ever get that small Massey you were looking at
No ended up buy hay equipment instead.
Great video 😀👍
Should wait to by one.. Bet they come out with one that will tie in both directions.... What do you think?
I thought of that but I kinda doubt they do it would have to have another knotter and would be heavier and way more expensive.
I think they should have automatic return when you open the grapple have a good day Dennis
That would be nice but probably hard to do
Which a 30 second delay
So you can get out of the bails

Too steep around here for the bale wagon to work properly
Maybe you could tie a white flag on the tie arm where you can see it from the cab. This might help you remember.
That’s a pretty good idea!
Only 2 complaints with our 4710. Even with weights the ass end is too light and the 3 point setup sucks
What’s wrong with the 3pt never had any trouble?
We have adjusted all the flow and can never get it to lift smooth and depth setting won't stay consistent

I know what you mean.
Just make the bales lighter and then you won’t have as much weight out front. A good 35-40# bale is all ladies want and you get more bales in each field in return.
