Can I move Round Bales with Case 1830 skid steer

Timgoat · Jul 9, 2009

I'v got a chance to get a real good deal on a case 1830 skid steer. I'll want to use it for cleaning the barn and possibly moving round bales. Bales will probably be alfalfa in the 5 x 5 range. Does anyone know if this skid steer will handle them ok. Thanks Tim

It's a challenge at times with our 1840.Even with all weights in rear,still tips forward.

Using a bale spear in place of the bucket, I'd say yes. Might need to add a little weight to the back.

Trying to chain one up in the bucket, or a bucket mounted spear, not a chance. At least not one I'd take.

Center of gravity thing.........
