Great review video. I bought me a Maxilator Accumagrapple last year after watching your video on it and put up about 4,000 bales with it. I love the Accumagrapple but I need to be able to put more hay up this year and looking at maybe buying one of these. I live in Anderson SC and the closet dealer is Ag Pro John Deere. They are a Kuhn dealer but don’t stock them. But after watching your videos on them I am thinking that this might be what I need to speed up the process of getting hay out of the field quicker.
My accumulator worked from bale one. I didn't have to adjust anything however the dealer had set up a great many of them so maybe had it figured out better
I'm wondering if that could be switched to a 8 bale configuration temporarily if needed to load a narrower trailer. If certain levers were strapped closed so the 8 bales slid farther down and skipped the crossed bales. Or would that cause the higher levers to get missed?
Sounds like where I grew up in Maine. Couple places we used an old modified horse dump rake to pull hay down to bottom of hill, then pitchfork feed it into baler.
Im just getting into haying and thinking the 4 bale will be simpler and maybe more versatile, loading 3 wide on flat beds and 2 wide on peoples smaller utility trailers which are common. Still undecided! I have smaller tractors too, decisions, decisions! Kinda want to just round bale but seems that is all everyone does now and squares are more wanted and bring much more, especially for horse hay. My biggest problem is time, since I work a month and then off a month. Also thinking maybe just round bale and setup a rebaling deal in the offseason....but we know the downsides to that too!
It might work good on flat land and slight slopes. In my area we do some pretty steep hillsides. It looks like I could tip easy, i think i will go with a flat or lower profile accumulator. Just my opinion. Still beats being the guy on the wagon, been there done that for years. This style does definitely have the advantage of no electonics, hydraulics or tons of moving parts. It's design is based on gravity, can't get much simpler than that. Definitely a strong plus
Answers my question very throurouly. Thank you
no problem buddy thank you for watching!
On my future equipment purchase list, thanks for the in depth video!
Your welcome thank you for watching

I have been thinking about getting an accumulator set-up. Thanks for the info!!
No problem thank you for watching
I trailed one down interstate 94 for abot 80 miles teailea great with the front wheels off the ground
Trailed great
Dave Graber. That’s how I pulled my 1036F home after I bought it. Worked great.
I own this machine and it works great for me. Mine is older which has only one front wheel.

Never tried it might work the only doors that would be a concern would be the outsides

Another great review. I'm thinking about getting the 4 bale one, just can't decide!
boltactionshooter just curious why a 4 bale

@@BagwellFarms if you don't have a team family or crew it's fewer stops to pick them all up even if you do it's still a quarter of the stops.

I use mine on slopes up to 19 degrees. I run graphite paint on it my channel is DLH Farms
Thanks for video 👍🏻👍🏻
Love the videos
thank you!!!
very nice equipment
thank you!
Awesome thanks. I’m looking at the same
What do have to have your bale length set at?
hey if you want you can come down to the farm and do a review on the old stye vs the new stye
I may take you up on it if I ever get caught up
Bagwell Farms I hoped to use the new one tomorrow but we just had a nice rain come through
It missed us I was hoping wed get some I hate that that's how it goes if you cut it rains if you don't it doesn't lol
Bagwell Farms so far every time I cut this place this year it rains
Just wondering if you had to do it over again would you just get the 12 bale flat?
No I’d still go with the ten bale they fill out a 8ft gooseneck perfectly an have a tie layer every layer If you alternate sides
Big, awkward, expensive...I will pass. 3000 bales to set up? No thanks.
