Interestingly you can hear the 7300 idling and the scream of the hydraulics on the loader...over the engine on the 5085. Nice and quiet. Personally, if I had to wait that long to raise and lower the loader, I would have to trade on the spot. Totally capable tractor and operator for this farm. Thanks for the video.
it's nice to see someone on here that knows to keep the load as low as possible. Half the loader videos I see ,people riding around with the loader up in the air! Just waiting break a spindle or at least alot of premature and unnecessary wear on the front end. Not to mention dangerous and looking like a fool
Probably around 40 some? We bought a semi load of them once, and I believe it was 45. Three high and three across for I believe 5 rows down the trailer.... The different sized bales change those numbers a lot too.
Austin Muik You can definitely get some heavy ones! Awhile back the farmer who used to do a lot of custom baling in our area switched to a 3'x4' baler for a year and lost a lot of customers because they couldn't lift that big of bale stacked double. He was back to a 3'x3' for the next year.
FYI: 2011 addendum to he manual requires that the 5000 series have 1500 lb weight or filled tires and wheel weights plus 800 lb weight. You are dancing with that tractor.. try it with some slope.

Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Wow this was very entertaining! The 5M really is a great tractor, I use it as my No.1
It is a decent machine.
❤❤❤
pretty darn good loading with no side shift great video thanks.
Let’s see some high school boys out there throwing these. : )
I wonder how many it would take to lift one of these bales.

Yeah I always like to keep the loader low. The higher it gets the less control you have!
how do you like the 5085 thats the exact tractor I'm looking to buy i have a 5520 now no cab
I really like it! We used to have a JD 5200, and the 5085M is a huge upgrade in terms of power and drive-ability. Definitely nicer for loader work!
How many large square bales did you make?
I think we had around 150 made that day.
Do you ever stack those big bales 3 high on a trailer?
If we're hauling from farther away we'll put some more in the middle on top, but it makes unloading with the skidsteer on the other end harder.
@ Farm Grown, Country Strong- what are the dimensions of those bales as well as weight?

Can you tell me how many of those large squares can be loaded on a flatbed semi?

Thanks for the info, any idea how much the ones you were loading weigh?
Brian Gansereit They were probably weighing about 900 pounds a piece.

Actually we do have about 1500 pounds of Rim Guard in the hind tires. I'd definitely want that in any loader tractor we have!
