My wife is always telling me,

"Yes Dear, size does matter."

I couldn't fer the life of me figure out what the heck she was talking about. Then, it finally dawns on me:

She's been talking about that silly hay mover all this time! :>)

It looks like the joy stick is a long reach over the fender, or is it not yet in operating position ?

Now that is cooler than short pants on a trip to the Arctic!
While peruseing the picture I happened to notice, between the left rear tire and fender, a patch of blue. Neighbor's tractor?

Naw,

Blue tractors aren't invited. That's the back end of that old Chevy truck.

back 'bout a million years ago I worked for a cattle feeder at North Platte and we ued an F25 under a 4020 JD as our main loader tractor. Pushed 200 ares of irrigated corn silage up in a pile every fall with it. Yes-sir-ee, they are quite the machine.

We usually built 1000 bale stacks and Dad and I would trade off every couple tiers. Generally I started and topped out the Stack and dad did the middle tiers. I was bucking bales on the H" and Massey 44D, started out when I was 13 yrs. old on the H". When we changed mid stack Dad rode the loader down, I can still see him today fireing up a Cigar as I was lowering him to the ground all casual as heck. After topping out at around 10 tiers it was my turn for the ride down. We didn"t have the push-off on this loader so it was a little trickier topping out. Also stacked a lot of hay on a 18" truck the same way except I did most all the stacking. We loaded 8 high when running in close and 7 high when hauling out on the main roads. Weren"t to many 15 year old kids could stack a truck load of hay that wouldn"t lean or worse yet lose it.

So does she use the little loader to set you down into the seat of the BIG loader ????

So I read Alan's post the other day and said, why in the devil would he want to take the 3 pth off just because he put a loader on it...

Boys was I surprised to see he'd mounted some type of monster tractor crane!

How high will that thing reach? Must be awful tippy

Hi Kenny,

These things are so common out here in hay country it is hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that in other parts of the land, people don't know what they are.

It will lift to about 5 degrees of total vertical, which puts that loader-head right back over the bill of your cap.

This is a picture of the hay basket when I unloaded it last winter with the little loader.

When on the F-10 and with the teeth tilted up, they are supposed to lift to 27 feet at the tip of the teeth measured right at the front tires on the tractor.

Yes Sir, they'll come over, no doubt about that. In fact, this one has laid on it's side at least once; hence the reason the fella so it to me. :>)

Given they have been built for hay do they have much power? A more common loader here would be say an IH2250. They put those on every IH around it seems.
