The Bale Chaser was designed to tackle big jobs and long days in the field. It was built to be robust and it will handle thousands of bales with ease. Engineered with the large scale farmer and the custom operator in mind this machine is as easy to operate as it is to maintain. The Bale Chaser is our original high speed big bale stacker that has led the industry since its introduction in 2009.
