Classics Earning their keep.

The pipes have been longer than the bale on any bale lifter I've used. If you're stacking them on their round you set them down in front of the stack, drive forward a few inches and then lift the bales again before reversing back to place them in the stack.
Things must be bad at SlurryKat if they're going to start producing low value items like bale lifters.

Fleming is shorter. That is a good few years old now, there is 4~5 about it seems.

Fleming still stick out past the end of the bale. It's a wonder SK didn't measure up a Fleming, they always used to borrow designs.

@Bob lincs - was the Muir Hill not there on the slipway at Cromer any more? I always felt a bit sorry for it.

Yes it is still there

The fact that the front dishes are 'in' and the back are 'out' says MH to me

I am up in Cumbria many years ago a Marshall 602 qm was broken up for spares I wanted a cab but was told it had already gone to someone to graft on to a Muir hill in the forestry trade that is a Leyland Marshall cab on there wouldn't that be a coincidence

Was earning its keep a few years ago and wasn’t parked there last year, but the green windows suggest she ain’t done much this year.

You have to put the first bale back down, then life two in tandem?

Definitely.
What is the thinking on the piece of steel on the side/bottom of spout ?
Strength or draught ?
Have you rebuilt the spout or chute ?

Emptying slats before heading on holiday certainly clears it’s tubes
