[QUOTE="Serup, post: 5950006, member: 568"] It depends on how you work and what is most important to you. In my experience, a shovel that's a little too big for the job will be the cheapest in total cost over time. It has it's limits as it's not tailored for your application, but it will do fine. I find the biggest problem to be getting in and out of cab if your routine gets you in and out many times in a day, as they are quite a climb compared to the small ones. I never liked the rigid framed machines for bale handling, as it's much easier to stack bales tight when you can turn the bales sideways as you place them. I wouldn't worry about z-bar limitations. Other factors are more important. If it's only for bale handling, and nothing harder/heavier, i would probably choose the jcb320 from your list if just looking at how they do the job, but the case if i was responsible for running costs. We have had many loaders over the years, but i have a volvo l70 now, and i like it a lot. [/QUOTE]
