Designed for Practical Hay Baling

The Vermeer 504R Classic combines a variable bale chamber with a durable belt-and-pickup configuration to support consistent round-bale production. The five standard mini rough-top belts work within the variable chamber to form bales from 36 to 60 in in diameter, allowing operators to select a bale size suited to their application. The 47 in bale width provides a compact, versatile bale format for everyday hay operations.

A 60 in camless wide pickup helps gather windrows efficiently, with four tooth bars carrying 48 double steel-coil teeth. The pickup is designed around straightforward operation and includes manual pickup lift as standard. Bale density is adjusted manually through the hydraulic relief valve, providing a direct operating setup without adding unnecessary complexity.

Twine and Bale Handling

This catalogue configuration includes the manual/electric twine controller option and twine tying system. The controller supports the twine-focused specification of this baler variant, while the spring-loaded bale ramp assists with bale discharge after tying. Together, these features provide a practical configuration for operators who prefer twine tying and require an integrated ramp for handling finished bales in the field.

Tractor Requirements

The 504R Classic requires a tractor with a minimum PTO output of 40 hp (29.8 kW). A tractor with 50 hp (37.3 kW) at the PTO is recommended. The baler uses a standard 540-rpm PTO driveline. Confirm that the towing tractor is properly matched to the baler and its operating conditions before use.
