There was another Maxwell brand I think which held bales with two rows of "spokes" and mounted on the rear right corner of deck of truck or trailer and sent them up into a good position for grabbing. They were fast simple and good.

Simple design but I wonder how much effect the tightness of the bale would have on its ability to pick them up. Never seen one before. DavidP Alister Anderson wrote on Saturday, July 22, 2017 (PDT): yeah I would imagine every thing would have to be right with the bales for it to operate effectively like I say I am pleased I never had to find out ! fastfarmall wrote on Saturday, August 26, 2017 (PDT): But that just got them on the wagon bed or truck, you still had to manhandle them two more times after you got them home ! Alister Anderson wrote on Monday, October 09, 2017 (PDT): the guy I worked for after I left school in 1977 father reckoned hay was no good unless it had been handled 5 times ! in his day they placed the bales in tent type stooks at baling time and left them to cure for a fortnight or so before hand loading onto a trailer so with loading and stacking in the field then unloading and stacking in the barn each one got handled 5 times many of them would have been handled 6 or 7 times !
