That was our only baler in the 50's, 60's and 70's. We would put up around 12,000 bales some years. Ours had the hi-speed wrap mechanism on it that saved a lot of time. Think of a square baler cutting every bit of hay that went thru it and you can see how much more efficient a round bale was. It could be left out in the field and would shed water unlike a square bale that became a big sponge. When I was 10 years old my job was to rake the perfect windrow while dad baled. Then we started stacking them in the field, starting with a 4x13 bottom layer and building up a pyramid, I swept up the bales with the WD45D and Du-all loader with hay basket, my sisters stacked them. In the fall we hired a guy with a Lahman stack mover to move them home. He would wrap a chain around the bottom layer, the back under them. Worked good, but those stacks were heavy, I think about 304 bales if I remember right. That baler still sets in the trees on the old farm, I inherited a newer white top that my dad bought after I had gone off to college...it is still in the barn in South Dakota and is for sale....

If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
