All I can say is the baler better be tying the bales right.
Let one or two bales break open in the middle of that
accumulator conveyor and it would be one heck of a mess
to unclog.   That said,  if you could afford it, it would be nice to
have.

A little fast on the unloading if you ask me!
  The attachments that go on Bobcats are pretty nice. A buddy of mine
built one and brought it over to help us out one time when dad was in
the hospital.
