Ya but we're dairy farmers baling our own silage. We don't do any contracting, no way we could justify a fusionIsn't that pretty much the whole reason behind the invention of baler wrapper Combis.

Across isn't too bad really its down hill that can be tricky due to the bale rolling back to the baler, if its too bad i reverse round to transfer and very often you'd have a bale wrapped so would need to turn across anyway. The one benefit a dedicated combi has over the inline is it has hold of the bale all the time so slopes don't affect it within reason whereas you do need to move the wrapper round on the inline to allow for the bale turning as it comes out of the chamber, once you get know where it needs to be it comes as second nature. Each has its good points and bad points!id like to see and try an inline set up on hills, accross being the one i would be more interested to try. Would like to thikn it would suit me but then again a combi baler might do as well if they ever get to fitting decent wheels. my krone combi on 600/55r26.5 was mighty but not fast enough for 6 layers, the 222.5 on a fusion or tandum axle on small wheels arent even close to it for floating on bad conditions
You'd have to be on the ball all the time I'd imagine, if not paying attention, you'd do wreck. Are you working an inline system with long?Across isn't too bad really its down hill that can be tricky due to the bale rolling back to the baler, if its too bad i reverse round to transfer and very often you'd have a bale wrapped so would need to turn across anyway.

Yeah you do have to think but once the bale is in the loading arm the wrapper looks after itself, you can see all that's happening on the camera anyway. The wrapper has steering which makes working slopes easier, it will follow whether going backwards or forwards if needed. I've run it for 10 years at least maybe a tad longer, bought a dedicated combi last year which is very good at what it does but its very wide so we are limited to where we can get. Narrow lanes and tight gateways the inline wins every time, at the time it was a cheap way of having a combi and also being able to wrap for others when needed, would be very reluctant to do away with it, its not for everyone but it works well here!You'd have to be on the ball all the time I'd imagine, if not paying attention, you'd do wreck.

Welger double action.what combi did you buy i cant remember
What about the McHale with the extra wheels added to the axle, my contractor has it and there is another nearby and I think they done it themselvesid like to see and try an inline set up on hills, accross being the one i would be more interested to try.

you can get mchale on 650 or 710s also as far as i know. very wide on the road thoughWhat about the McHale with the extra wheels added to the axle, my contractor has it and there is another nearby and I think they done it themselves
Found that here too when we was contracting , in my eyes the worst machine on wet ground is the wrapper and a bad driverI’m using fusions on land that’s is under water 9 months of the year and no trouble with travel
I thought ye said those goweils were great to take stuff 🙈😂
I saw one in Moorepark 2 years ago, it was accompanied by a fusion and a service van and didn't look to be working very well. I pulled in to watch it , it packed up shortly after, service fellas were all over it with the covers open. I heard one fella telling the driver to get it away from the road so it was quickly taken away. Fusion finished the fieldFast bale working near here. Have they been tested in Irish conditions yet I wonder.
Vicon non stop baler.What's a fast bale?
As above . Or else its what you do with any baler when rain drops start hitting the window.What's a fast bale?
Alan McGraths one I think it’s gone now replaced with a Kuhn. He still has the two fusions I thinkI saw one in Moorepark 2 years ago, it was accompanied by a fusion and a service van and didn't look to be working very well.
