604R Premium Baler Features & Benefits
Smart features help make baling simple
Enjoy smarter, more efficient hay production with the Auto-eject system that ties bales and operates the tailgate automatically, along with a net lift system that raises the netwrap roll for the operator.
Let the 604R Premium do the heavy-lifting for you. The net lift system raises the netwrap roll into the tailgate from the ground or from the back of a truck.
Good-looking bales come standard
The netwrap system on all 604 R-series balers lets operators control net tension for optimal coverage.
Bale density can be controlled in cab from the Atlas Pro™ control system monitor allowing operators to decide how dense to make the bale.
More baling, less maintenance
The camless pickup maximizes productivity while reducing maintenance with 30 fewer wear parts compared to a cammed pickup.
Tired of replacing pickup teeth? No problem. Rubber-mounted pickup teeth are more durable and last longer than standard pickup teeth.
Peace of mind
Operators can rest assured with a 3-year pickup coverage on internal components including parts* and labor. *Does not include teeth or hardware for teeth.
