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

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.
