What a cool machine to watch. We bale all 2 stringers here in southwest PA and use Bale Barons behind the balers. Another local farmer here tried a bale wagon like this and they just don't work out in our hills I'm told.
Ran a Haro-bed out in Washington State in 1968. Dad ran a custom outfit putting up 1000 acres of alfalfa four cuttings a year. Great machine. I could stack 4000 bales a day on a full day stacking at the end of the fields. Got paid 3 cents a bale. Dam good wages in that time for a kid just graduated high school. Just by looking at three tie bales and border irrigation I guessed either California or Arizona. I see the newer machines have a different "tie" system now than I had.
It was some of the best times of working as a teenager custom stacker. Something about it was challenging, competitive, profitable and rewarding. Pull into a field of 4-5000 bales and go lets go was the best. I still get an hankering to go run a stacker for a day to remove the old itch. Don't see too many around as ton bales have taken over. Thanks Bales
My brother and I run custom Stackwagons all thru high school at .05-.07/bale. It was always hard work, dirty, competitive and fun to run these during the summer months. Stacked about million bales of hay during that time.
Gary McCord I could just see two teenagers battling in the field and then accidentally running into each other. Bahaha. I think I need a stack wagon T shirt.
Gary McCord I heard that! I never use that name though. Everyone here and in CA call the Roadsiders. Because they stacked the hay on the side of the road.
That is so cool that the different row stacking is automated. I wish they still made the pull type bale wagons. We don't do enough hay to buy a SP version. We almost bought a pull type one that also unloaded onto a bale elevator, but it was too worn out.
What makes the 3 string bales so popular in your part of the country? In our area 14 by 18 inch bales are most common if you are selling to the horse hay market. I am looking forward to see that double baler working.
@@robbybachmann332 in Central, Wash. and myself from Kittitas County, about 50 mins to the West of where the video was made, Timothy hay has been 3 tie bales for ever, and im age 60, most of the hay is either exported to Calif, or to the Far East, the hay that is shipped in container's to the East, is first shipped to my home town of Ellensburg Wa. where there are a number of hay exporter's there, the hay is rebale and placed into container's and then shipped to the port's to be shipped oversea's
My grandfather used to run a pull behind version of this behind a Farmall Super M. He'd bring a load back you the barn, dump it, and we'd load it onto the conveyor to go in the loft.
What size bale chambers do you use? I ask because we do 16x22 up here and I don't think we'd be able to fit 12 per tier on edge. Looks like the block handles a lot nicer. I'm guessing 14x22?
Why does the Bale wagon stack some Bales a certain way and others different? Is it so they stack better, dry better or can fit more in a certain area? Thanks and thumbs up!
John Warren yes it’s programmed to stack every layer a certain way automatically. All you have to do is dump manually and use the pickup arm chain manually
That driver has to pay close attention though. Sometimes a bale yips over, or lodges between the tables. If he doesn’t stop and fix it. The stack could fall over.
It's amazing that these guys could invented these balers and stack wagons all those years ago. If I was a kid again and lived near you, you would not be able to get rid of me.
I run a 1069 (3wide), and yes, there's a set of spikes that come up - also another trigger arm on the first table that will send the bale up when it's in the center rather than loading 2.

Running the bale wagon is my favorite part of putting up hay thanks for showing how the newer ones work
One if not the best video showing table and tie pattern. Great angles!
Great video! Some of the most interesting machines in the world are in farming. Thank you for taking the time to show us this beast in action!
Best operator of a stack wagon yet, you rock.
Wow, thats an ingenious machine.
Laurier it’s super cool!!
Great video I have ran a buggy before but never seen it ran like that and the buggy I was using was a 1970 but it is still better than using hay hooks
That bale wagon sure works good!

How fast can you go while loading in a avg crop alfalfa
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch We called them HaroBeds up here in washington State
Hello This is an excellent machine. What is its price, brother? Please, I need 3 of the same in Saudi Arabia
I own and run a pull type bale wagon and they are almost free of break downs for what they do, and stack 1500 bales a day best invention ever

pull types are still made, in Europe at least.
Use to run the 3 wide 1049's and 1069's years ago, never run the 2 wide's. Those where fun days.
Ok

Still say one of these would make a awesome one off RV but i love watching these work in the fields around here it weirdly relaxing
You wouldn't get anywhere in a hurry, though! haha
@@joeblow2063 lol true but almost be worth it to have a one of a kind RV
A good job baling sure makes the bale wagons job look easy. Well done...
Robby bachmann he’s been running them since 1985. He’d better be good!!

Robby bachmann we make so much hay. We’d need 15 two string balers to keep up with my 5 three string balers.

Do you have your harobed turned up on hydraulic speed or is that factory
All stock!

I love it. This sure would have prevented some heat stroke potential back in the day.
Brian Flannery Lol.
Why does the Bale wagon stack some Bales a certain way and others different? Is it so they stack better, dry better or can fit more in a certain area? Thanks and thumbs up!
Its to tie them together like laying bricks. If every layer was stacked the same they would just fall over.
What Madfarmer said is right. The only thing holding these bales together is their weight. By over lapping them, they are tying themselves together.
@@BalesHayFarmandRanch, that makes sense, thank you guys for the response. Appreciate it.
august heck yeah!!! I do my best! To respond.
What all does the operator have to do?
Now that's way cool 😎
Very nice video never seen one of them run before. Is it all computer controlled for the stack of the bales
John Warren yes it’s programmed to stack every layer a certain way automatically. All you have to do is dump manually and use the pickup arm chain manually

Nice little hay damn
Explain the borders a little more than not over lapping when planting. Enjoy your videos
The main purpose of borders is for flood irrigation! I actually made a video today explaining everything. It should be up in a few days!!

Does something pop up,out of those 2 elliptical holes in the deck to help those 2 bales pivot 90°?
I run a 1069 (3wide), and yes, there's a set of spikes that come up - also another trigger arm on the first table that will send the bale up when it's in the center rather than loading 2.
