Description

Vermeer 604S Premium Round Baler is a 4-ft-wide variable-chamber round baler designed to produce 36–72-in hay bales with consistent shape, adjustable density, and efficient field operation. This Premium configuration is equipped with a 1,000-rpm driveline, scale system, LED maintenance lights, net lift, and auto-eject. With six premium mini rough-top belts, a wide camless pickup, standard moisture sensing, Atlas Pro controls, and hydraulic bale handling, the 604S Premium is suited to producers who need dependable baling performance across changing hay conditions and bale sizes.

Product Highlights

The 604S Premium combines Vermeer’s variable-chamber bale formation with controls intended to keep key baling functions accessible from the tractor seat. The Atlas Pro control system uses a 7-in color touchscreen to manage baling functions, while standard moisture sensing can monitor moisture levels up to 29%. Standard netwrap and net gauge functions support repeatable wrapping, and the optional scale system uses three load cells to weigh each bale during wrapping.

A 69-in pickup width helps gather windrows efficiently, while the hydraulic pickup lift and hydraulic bale ramp support convenient field operation. The Premium model includes LED maintenance lights and an Auto Lube greasing system. The listed configuration also includes a 1,000-rpm driveline, net lift, scale, and auto-eject. Auto-eject requires a tractor hydraulic detent.

Baling Performance and Operation

The variable-chamber bale design allows the operator to produce bales from 36 to 72 in in diameter while maintaining a 47-in bale width. The wide pickup is designed for gathering windrows with a 69-in tooth-to-tooth working width, and its 70 double rubber-mounted teeth support crop pickup across the full width. Bale density, bale shape, and net-wrap settings can be managed through the control system.

The scale system is documented as an optional feature and weighs each bale during wrapping using three load cells. The hydraulic bale ramp and optional auto-eject function help streamline bale discharge. For operation with auto-eject, the tractor must have a hydraulic detent.

This product is configured for a 1,000-rpm PTO using an optional 1-3/8-in or 1-3/4-in extended-lube automatic-clutch driveline. The Atlas Pro control system is ISOBUS standard.
