Vermeer 504R Classic Round Baler – 4' x 5', Twine, Ramp [504401381] is a variable-chamber round hay baler designed for full-time baling with robust performance and straightforward operation. Built with heavy-duty components and a durable chain drive, this Vermeer baler produces nominal 4 ft x 5 ft bales with adjustable diameters from 36 to 60 inches. The supplied configuration includes the optional twine tie system and optional bolt-on spring-loaded bale ramp, while the 60-inch camless wide pickup helps gather windrows efficiently. An Atlas control system with a 4.3-inch color touchscreen provides operating control for hay producers seeking a practical, durable baling solution.

Reliable Variable-Chamber Baling

The 504R Classic forms bales from 36 to 60 inches in diameter, allowing bale size to be adjusted to suit handling and storage requirements. Its 47-inch bale width and variable-chamber design support consistent round-bale production across a range of haymaking applications. The baler uses five 3-ply mini rough-top belts, each 6.8 inches wide, with Alligator rivet belt lacing.

Wide Pickup and Protected Driveline

A 60-inch camless wide pickup, measured tooth-to-tooth, is equipped with four pickup tooth bars and 48 double steel-coil teeth. The pickup lift is manual as standard, with hydraulic lift available as an option. Radial pin clutches provide protection for both the main driveline and pickup torque, helping safeguard key drive components during operation.

Twine and Bale Ramp Configuration

This product description identifies the baler with the optional twine tie system and optional bolt-on spring-loaded bale ramp. The single-arm twine feed mechanism applies two twines and includes storage for four balls. The bale ramp increases the listed overall length from 156 inches in the standard configuration to 169 inches with the ramp installed. Netwrap is also available as an option, but is not identified as part of this twine-configured product.
