Vermeer® Hay Equipment Buying Guide
When it comes to baling hay, you’re doing yourself a disservice if you aren’t using a baler like the models produced by Vermeer®. This company has been a name in the hay-baling industry for 50 years now, thanks to their revolutionary round hay-baling machines. The hay equipment produced by Vermeer takes the backbreaking and time-consuming labor out of making hay bales so that you can get this job done and move on to other tasks on your farm.
Not sure what type of hay equipment you need? J5 Tractors, with four Texas locations that serve Conroe, is your local Vermeer dealer, so we’ve assembled this Vermeer hay equipment buying guide to help you figure out which machine will best suit your needs.
604 R-Series Balers
This latest lineup from Vermeer helps you to create consistently high-quality bales, offering options that help you to reach high speeds and maximum output. The Classic, Signature and Premium models are all 6’ by 4’ in size, making them large enough to get the work done, but compact enough to not be too challenging to store away. A platform with camless pickup and rotor design, a novel netwrap system and a hydraulic density system comes standard on every style.
For those small or mid-range hay producers, the 604R Classic is the ideal economical baler that is simple in its design with user-friendly controls and both netwrap and twine options.
The 604R Signature baler is excellent for full-time hay production where versatility and convenience are the features most prized. Either dry or wet hay can be baled with the Signature, and an optional silage kit can be added.
Those who produce hay in a very high capacity will do well to purchase the 604R Premium, which can produce bales that are 30% denser than its sibling balers, while also making hay 19% faster than the Signature. THis speedy baler is heavy-duty so it will last for many years of haymaking.
504 R-Series Balers
Another great series of balers is the 504 R-Series, which also comes in Classic, Signature and Premium models. This lineup meets similar needs to the 604 R-Series in terms of production capacity. Vermeer 504R balers come with the Atlas™ control system that helps you to monitor and control hay production using a touchscreen display and intuitive controls at a very economical price.
