[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 773427, member: 7509"] As stated above, tractor hp is not as important handling hay as is the weight of the tractor. For big round bales, often over 1200 lb and trying to lift them high I would definitely look at filling both rear wheels with fluid or using a weight box on the back or lifting a bale on the three point spear before using the loader spear. Stability is the problem with smaller tractors loading bales. I use a 95 hp tractor and even then I need to have a bale on the back spear in many situations. For a smaller tractor I would definitely use fluid in the tires if handling 5x6 bales especially. Good luck. Be safe. Jim [/QUOTE]
