One problem I am having is that the push off doesn't work unless the push off speed control is set higher. If it is slower then the bale pushover arm operates instead of the push off.

WEBAug 16, 2019 · These accumulators WILL NOT accommodate the speed of bale formation with large windrows, >100 stroke/min balers and fast ground speed.

square bale accumulator and grapple, or a grapalator
WEBAug 2, 2009 · Just set up the accumulator as square as possible to the baler. The accumulator has to pivot up and down when going over humps or terraces. And swing behind when turning. Also It is an 8 bale deck. Thats all I have seen for the older Farmhand. I don't know if they made any different. I like the Steffens 10 bale accumulator.

WEBAug 27, 2019 · I think my tank is bigger than it needs to be.

Most 8 bale 'dumps' from a farmhand are about 7' to 71/2' long and 3 'dumps' or 'pads' will fit nicely on a 20' trailer. This, of course, depends on bale length. We make a 39-41" bale, twine tie.
