ISOBUS Connectivity
The Bale Baron 5250 Series is fully ISOBUS compatible, giving the operator full control and visibility over the bundling process, right from the cab. Watch each bundle build as every bale is tracked and counted – both in auto and manual modes – for accuracy every time. The Bale Baron will work with and without ISOBUS. If your tractor does not have an ISOBUS display, an optional display is available. The Bale Baron will also work without ISOBUS using the standard in-cab control.
Greaseless Nitrided Pins And Composite Bushings
To improve reliability and to help make servicing a Bale Baron easier, all pivot points now use greaseless and nitride treated pins as well as composite bushings.
Lower Bale Pickup
To increase production on all in-field pickup models, the front bale pickup is now lower to the ground. We’ve also increased the length of the vertical rollers for more surface engagement. This means more grip for picking up bales.
Wider Stance
To improve the stability of the Bale Baron, the wheel base has been widened.
Wide Euro Style Tires
Wide 19/45-17 10 ply tires are standard on the rear axle. These wider tires offer increased traction and better flotation in muck soil or wet conditions.
Redesigned Cushion Cylinders
The cushion cylinders have been redesigned for extended life and improved reliability.
Swing Out Twine Cabinet
Gain full service access to the main components of the Bale Baron with a convenient swing out twine cabinet and shield. A simply release latch allows you to swing the twine cabinet open, no tools required.
Gas Shock Mounted Access Panels
For easier servicing, most panels are now gas shock mounted.
Gas Shock Mounted Pickup Shields
For easier servicing of the pickup unit, the side shield access panels are gas shock mounted.
Large Twine Cabinets
Storage for 16 balls of twine means you can bundle more than 5000 small square bales before needing to refill the cabinets. Plastic twine is one of the most efficient binding options available. Plastic twine is easy to buy, cost effective and user friendly for producer and end user.
Rasspe Knotter
The Bale Baron uses the proven low maintenance Rasspe knotter for reliability and easy serviceability. Sealed knotter components keep dirt out and grease in, requiring grease only once a year. Missed ties have an audible alarm.
Spring Assist Roller Ramp
Once tied, each bundle exits the Bale Baron down the roller ramp and gently onto the ground. The roller ramp is equipped with a compression spring to assist the operator when pinning up the ramp. Add a roller chute extension for stationary baling.
Turn Table
The aggressive traction of the Bale Barons perforated turn-table grabs the bales as they exit the baler giving excellent side hill performance.
Dual Caster Wheels
Two dual heavy-duty front caster wheels for increased stability and flotation. Hollow rubber block suspension on casters for smooth trailing.
Smart Solve
The Smart/Solve system runs using a PLC that constantly monitors and warns the operator when needed. Smart/Solve provides user friendly command and alarm messages for the operator.
Air And Hydraulic Brakes
Air brakes and hydraulic brakes are optional on all 4250 and 5250 models.
In Europe, all 4250 and 5250 models come standard with your choice of air or hydraulic brakes. A manual parking brake is also included.
