Ran across this unique piece of equipment this weekend at a JD dealer. It looks like it might be a solution for people with CUTs that want to handle big round and/or square bales. It can also be used as a crane or forklift with optional forks.

The URL for the CUT model Ag-Krane is: Ag-Krane Cut Model

And, since everyone will want to know, the list price for the base CUT size Ag-Krane is $1700 (from their website).

With the bale hanging that far out the back, it looks like it would need a great deal of front ballast.

Don't think it will be of much use on a small tractor trying to haul large bales.

It would need alot of ballast if you lift the wheels up on the "Ag Krane" otherwise I would think it would work alright.
The biggest problem I can see even with the wheels down is the fact the "Krane" could be unstable on uneven terrain, when loaded with something heavy.
