nos WAGON
You don’t have to wait on a wagon that unloads
itself. So. the Sperry New Holland automatic bale wagon
is the only hay wagon your farm needs.
The automatic bale wagon can pick up bales from
the field faster than a baler can make them. At the
barn or stacking area, it unloads in just minutes, mak
ing tight rigid stacks, automatically.
Best of all. one person does it all from the seat of a
tractor. The bale wagon frees labor for other work
and enables you to put up your hay ahead of the weather.
The automatic bale wagon is for farmers who want

to store hay without lifting bales. Hydraulic muscle
does the lifting for you. Even the smallest model.
“1003”. moves over 1.300 bales from field to storage
in a normal 8-hour day. A larger model, "1069", han
dles over 2,500 bales a day.
Some people buy automatic bale wagons just be
cause they don’t like backaches.
Ask your Sperry New Holland dealer to compare the
price of a bale wagon with that of a bale thrower and
three or four wagons. You’ll see how affordable an
automatic bale wagon can be.
