Will a Dexta Lift Large Round Rolls of Hay?

Airgator007 · Oct 23, 2018

I can buy a Dexta tractor but don't know if it is strong enough to lift round rolls of hay. 32 hp and I have read that it will lift 1000 kg or 2200 pounds. The tractor is supposed to weigh 3,300 pounds.
That's the information I have. I know the person selling it is a reliable person but he could not say whether it would be able to move hay or not....just to put hay out for cows about twice a week.

Yes providing the hydraulics are in good order. I have used my Dexta to feed round bales for years w/o problems. The front end could use some counter balance weight or if going up a hill just go in reverse.

Are they large rolls? Does the Dexta have power steering? Thanks.

large rolls YES ie: 4x5 rolled tight // once you pick up a round bale you no longer need power steering // don't know but I have never seen a Dexta or Super Dexta w/pwr steering // Best Regards brownsmule

The previous owner of my Super Dexta used to lift 4x5 bales in the carryall he built for the back.
