This system ensures direct short transfer paths, leading to optimal power distribution. 3....

OUR SpeciFication 4. Rotor Design (i) The star shaped feed rotor fitted behind the pick up on the V6 round baler ensures a high capacity flow of grass into the bale chamber. As crop enters the rotor, rotating tines feed the crop through to the bale chamber. The tines on the rotor ensure high output, while the star layout reduces the load peaks as the V6 round baler works in heavy swaths. (ii)The feed rotor or chopping unit now boasts a heavy-duty rotor and comb. The rotor on all V6 machines is welded on both sides for superior strength and on the drive side the rotor is fitted with a double...

VARIABLE CHAMBER BALER RANGE 3 SIMPLE STEPS TO REMOVING A BLOCKAGE Should a blockage occur, the sound of the slip clutch alerts the operator who can hydraulically lower the floor from the tractor cab. When operating the drop floor cycle on the V6 balers, the knives and the drop floor now drop together during the unblocking process, giving even more clearance to allow the blockage to be fed through. This widens the feed channel and on re-engaging the PTO the blockage can be fed through. On the V6 balers the drop floor is now equipped with a drop floor sensor, which indicates to the operator if...
