    Would a 35 be able to handle those big square bales? I am thinking not.
    Probably, as long as your reversing!!!

    Not a chance in hell.

    She'd surely pull the one on a suitable light trailer, down a slight hill, with a tail wind?

    We lifted them with a 35 and 135 around the yard last year

    Ah now I remember......

    I was looking at one of those "bale buggys" a while ago. No intention of buying one or anything.

    Could a big square be winched up a ramp onto a low trailer?

    Not planning on doing it, just doing too much thinking :D

    Took both the 35 and the 135 did it?:D

    When Ferguson devised his lifting system, he done a good job on it!

    a miserable auld c'ewe'nt rang me one day looking for a bale of straw. I told him take a bale as it was easier say okay that not and he could load it himself. Anyway I saw him going into the yard with his cattle jeep trailer, no sign of the fecker after about 15minutes, I went out and there was my prick gone blue in the face, instead trying to load an 8x4x3 into the back of the trailer by hand.
