Simon Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 That's the way to clear a field! Didn't watch all of it so didn't notice, were the balers driven by a donkey engine or off the combine? Presume off a donkey engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 :o That looks to be some operation and nice gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Forget the combines - how about collecting the bales at that speed!! You can't always hit them correctly to turn them 90 degrees surely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 ok clever idea, but how does he know if theres a prob with the baller for one, like a bust twine or blockage, they dont look donky engine drive from the side shots i can see,but there doesnt look to be any pick up for the baller as i cant see straw on the floor between them either, would it be possible to power a baler of say the choppers parts at the back and into the baller via a conveyor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGU Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 MGU thinks the bale collector is awesome!! :o He just tried it with his Siku Fendt Combine and big Krone baler - It tows it but the rear wheels of the combine are off the ground! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget the combines - how about collecting the bales at that speed!! You can't always hit them correctly to turn them 90 degrees surely? could cope the tractor if they were to spin in front of it!!!

JC Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 I have :D http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php?topic=20666.0 I was gonna say this is old news....! I bet the chaser bin driver has to be on his toes, you don't want a hesston bale dropping in your path as you just floor it to catch the next combine do you??!

CJ Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 this was in profi a while ago i think the balers are driven from the combines hydraulics and there is a shock absorbing drawbar running upto the combine's front axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMurF Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 ok clever idea, but how does he know if theres a prob with the baller for one, like a bust twine or blockage, they dont look donky engine drive from the side shots i can see,but there doesnt look to be any pick up for the baller as i cant see straw on the floor between them either, would it be possible to power a baler of say the choppers parts at the back and into the baller via a conveyor Same way as you do on a standard trailed baler The computer tells you Not like the good old days when you had to watch everything from the cab As for powering the baler Can't quite work it out as if it was powered by the combine it would eat up too much power as they need about 150 horses on a tractor and as for donkey engine, can't see one dut that may be a fuel tank on the back of the baler unless it is an additive tank \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pingu Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Having read this somewere before if a remember rightly the balers are driven off a large hydraulic motor on the combine, and if i can remember right the combine is fitted with a larger engine to cope with this. I could proberly be wrong but think thats how its done ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 I just can't see how anything other than a proper mechanical drive would be up to it. Big balers take a lot of driving. It COULDN'T be driven of any existing combine drive, all the belt driven equipment or low volume hydraulic ancilliaries would not be anywere near man enough to drive it, probably even to turn it over empty! Those HD PTO's are there for a reason!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Same way as you do on a standard trailed baler The computer tells you Not like the good old days when you had to watch everything from the cab As for powering the baler Can't quite work it out as if it was powered by the combine it would eat up too much power as they need about 150 horses on a tractor and as for donkey engine, can't see one dut that may be a fuel tank on the back of the baler unless it is an additive tank \ cheers scott, didnt know they fitted that stuff to balers now, always used to cranking the head round and listining for weird grinding noises when it went wrong in my day :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Went looking just now and found the article in october 2007 profi magazine and the baler is driven by a bigger hydraulic motor off the combine which has been fitted with a bigger deutz engine case settled :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I don't think either the combines or the balers are overworked on the straw side...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
