Nice to see one working again , like so many other systems , they seemed to need to be worked on a DEAD flat field , with perfectly straight rows , even then , like the guy below says , if I baled at that speed I,d be looking for another job , too slow over the ground , although , a perfect job done otherwise mate . Well done for keeping the faith from the mid 1980,s .
So, an automated Perry stacker! Much better than following a sledge and stacking by hand (oh, so much better) The grab on the Merlo clears the stacks quick too. A neat setup!
Brilliant idea, no electrics or electronics. All mechanically actuated. To work correctly, the apparently slow baling speed is required for the hydraulics to work. Better to.bale a bit slower than have to finish early and walk round stacking the bales manually.
My dad had one it was brilliant had a bamford super 59 pulled by a leyland 255 did 750,000 bales before we wore it out then got a welger ap630 on the cube 8 but following a 24 ft cut combine the sledge struggled to keep up ending its career had to go to flat 8 a cooks windrower

Great to see always wanted one of these lely sledges would like to see more of it
Thanks for the video, been told about this machine but never seen one, cheers.
Nice never seen one before looks good how come thy did not be come as poplar as a flat 8 sledge thanks.
If Father saw me baling at that speed I would have a very sore ass
