It has been quite a few years, but I know dad always liked to pack them a lot heavier than I as a young kid liked, and he always like to bale it a little "greener" than I liked. I would guess though that dad baled them between the 65 and 80 lb mark. I remember him checking my bales and "screwing" it down to make them heavier. He always looked at it that he wanted less bales, but did not mind the weight. Guess you could say he had a little more "lead" than I, as he would toss them on the wagon with one hand while it was all I could do to throw with both hands. I remember on occasion trying to get the baler adjusted and cranking out some monsters. I do know that #45 baler worked both the C and 8N hard. I got a big bite in the plunger once which killed the C and I restarted and dumped the clutch wide open and twisted the pto tube in the transmission in two. That was the first day for baling with the 8N and it done a good deal of the baling from then on. These days a lot of folks feel that they cannot bale without a 80 horse or better air conditioned rig.
