Some pictures from my 1st attempt doing round bales. Eighteen 1250 lbs 4x4 bales and two odd shaped mushroom looking bales. The 6080 handled it perfectly. I put the duals on for extra weight.     Allis 6080 and New Holland BR7070 baler.

If that is your first round baling it looks good. There is a lot to learn about baling different hay and conditions. ------------- 1945 C, 1949 WF and WD, 1981 185, 1982 8030, unknown D14(nonrunner) |

An Allis pulling a New Holland hay tool perfect combo. Do you have the bale command monitor? First year for us pulling RB 450 behind a 8030. ------------- 8030 and 8050MFWD, 7580, 3 6080's, 160, 7060, 175, heirloom D17, Deere 8760 |

You know, I think this is the first 6000 series that I have ever seen all dualed up. She looks mean with the 7000 hoods, weights, and sloped out grill in front of the 8000 series cab. Beautiful country. ------------- 2-8070FWA PS/8050PS/7080/7045PS/200/D15-II/2-WD45/WD/3-WC/UC/C |

Unit, I have duals for Dad's 6080. He had them on every spring and fall. I don't think I have any pics of it with them on though. If I had spare time coming out my ears I'd put 'em on and take a pic, don't hold your breathe! Dad planted corn with the 6080 and liked having the duals on. I have adopted the 185 which I have no duals for and see no real reason for them for planting. When field cultivating I could use them. Beautiful country out there!

| Beautiful pictures and nice set up! Gotta ask. . . .are you sure those bales weigh 1250? That seems a LOT for a 4x4. Just curious. |

| Yessir victory, that's a very realistic and reasonable number. I realize balers vary, that's why I asked, but that seems a lot! |

| I think that Baler makes up to 6ft dia bale giving it that weight. My 4x5 Vermeer never has made dry hay as heavy as the book shows. I haven’t ran a NH Baler, maybe they are little heavier?? |

And my Gehl never made them as heavy as the book said. There's over twice the hay in a 6 foot diameter bales as a 4 foot, given the same length out of the same baler! |

| I was off on the bale weight. The bales averaged out at 780 lbs. I took a guess based on the setting size I set it from the manual. |

Yeah.....sorry for sounding critical and the tangent it caused  I was curious, and would have been very surprised, would have been some very tightly packed hay!
