The wide range of congurations

allow the operator to select
precisely the right bale size for
individual transport and storage
facilities – whatever the crop.

Five models –
the choice is yours

These variable chamber balers
use a combination of rollers
and belts to produce bales of
up to 2.0m in diameter. A range

of high specication options

include a double rake feeder, rotor
feeder or Supercut for enhanced
performance in all crop types,
ensuring that they will appeal to
a broad spectrum from mixed
farmers to large contractors.

MF 160 Series balers are very
simple to operate, with all
functions controlled from the in­cab Alpha bale monitor or Light
bale monitor– the latest technology
designed to take the stress away
from harvest-time.

The Self-Cleaning Roller System
works particularly well in silage,
eliminating the need for a special
silage kit.

Horsepower requirement is 80hp,
with 540 PTO revs/min. There is
one single-acting and one double­acting spool valve requirement.

With the MF 160 range of balers,
baling your crop couldn’t be more
simple and stress-free.

Technology at your ngertips

On ‘V’ and ‘VS’ models the Alpha
bale monitor puts the operator in
complete control, providing the
ability to make adjustments to
all the important functions and

displaying the most signicant

parameters.

Bale size, density and shape,
soft core adjustments, net and
twine tying – all are controlled
from this simple-to-use interface.

When the cutter is tted, knife

position can be set in, out or for
cleaning or removal. In the event
of a blockage, this can also be
reversed without leaving the
driver’s seat.

A constant indication of bale shape
allows the operator to make minor
adjustments to driving technique
to ensure perfectly shaped bales
every time, while bale count
information enables the operator
to maintain daily totals or tallies for
individual customers.

The bafe plate with hexagonal

roller boosts baler performance
by coping with big swaths at
high speeds, while the cam track
is double-sided for long life and
reliability. The pickup is also
suspended, to enable ground
contours to be followed.

Up to 2.2m wide, the pickup has

ve rows of cranked tines to ensure

fewer losses, even when operating
at higher speeds or when baling a
small crop. In addition, it allows a
better crop in-take and a smooth,
even ow from pickup to rotor.
(V and VS models).

Gentle,

efcient pickup

A low-prole pick-up has been developed to handle the bulkiest

swaths and feed them gently into the bales.
