In Reply to: Hay Hooks posted by 37Chief on January 21, 2014 at 13:14:06:
I always used a hay hook and still have several of them somewhere..Between 1961-1985 I probably handled at least 600,000 or more bales of hay..
For years I and my brother hauled hay for two neighbors that put up 10,000 bales each..One baled with twine and one with wire..We also helped several other neighbors quite a bit.
Between 1961-69 Dad had 18 acres of alfalfa that we baled with an AC round baler..When I was 12 I was riding a bale sled behind the neighbors 116W JD baler...I also rode a bale sled behind another neighbors 68 New Holland...I also rode bale wagons behind several neighbors that had 77 New Holland balers..
Every neighbor that we hauled hay for is now dead...I'd gladly go back in time to haul bales one more time for these great neighbors...RIP Doyle,Elmer,Cecil,Lavon,and Leonard...Those were some fun times.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
