CAEB HAY BALER, USED

• Wrapped Bale measures 21" x 23"
• Bales are Net-wrapped, no twine
• Bale weighs 4 to 60lbs depending upon moisture of hay and how tight you pack the bales
• OPTIONAL: Gathering wheels (increase pickup width from 28" to 38")
• OPTIONAL: Dual front wheels and or ballon tires for extreme slopes and boggy conditions

Hay Bales are formed by a series of chain-driven patented aluminum rollers around the circumference of the bale chamber - - no belts or bands to dry-rot or need adjustment. Chains are automatically oiled during operation, and much heavier-duty than you would think necessary, considering the power that these little tractors have… but that’s a good representation of how the CAEB company over-builds this baler. The Baler forms “soft-core” bales which allows air to circulate through the bale center while the outside of the bale is rolled tight to shed moisture if left outside. Bales are wrapped with a self-sticking UV resistant nylon net-wrap OR a biodegradable netting available by special order.

The number of bales you can make on one roll of net-wrap varies according to the “lap” setting you choose on the Baler: The most common is the “2.5 lap” setting, which will do about 325 – 350 bales and results in a nice, durable bale… but if you’re not handling the bales much and really want to conserve the netting, the “1.5 lap” setting will get you about 500 bales per roll. The 3.5 lap setting consumes more netting, and would only be used for wrapping very “crumbly” materials like grass clippings or leaves..

An indicator on the side of the machine tells the operator when the bale is fully formed, at which point the operator pulls a single lever which trips the net-wrapping, wrap cutting and chamber opening cycle. The operator then sets the bale out of the chamber, closes the chamber, and resumes baling. As with the hayrake/tedder, the front wheels steer to guide the machine with a steering rod that comes out to the operator. This baler will bale hay, leaves, and even pine needles as long as the material is dry (green hay can be made into silage using the CAEB Bale Wrapper). Baler comes with one roll of net-wrap, bale counter, automatic chain oiler, parking brake and male a quick-coupling built into the PTO hookup flange. Requires tractor be equipped with female quick-coupling. (NOTE: All balers are tested before shipping, to make sure they are working properly…we put ONE BALE through them. So if you see a bit of hay on your new baler, this is why.)
