At the very best the 24T we used put out four 85 bale loads per hour on 16' racks and I only remember it happening a couple of times over the 20 years or so that we baled. It was just a couple of fluke times where the windrows were big, smooth and perfectly matched to the tractor speed in the particular gear it was in. The bales were in the 60 pound range but when the baler was pushed the bales started varying in length. The neighbor who owned the baler and I were always stacking the rack and we knew each other's moves so we could be pretty efficient. He was 30 years older than me but he had more stamina. I can say that now but was I too proud to admit it then. All of you guys who did this job when you were young learned how to keep going even though you were hot, dirty, thirsty and tired. Sure does teach good work ethic doesn't it?Jim
