Description

The Vermeer 605N Round Baler is a variable-chamber hay baler designed for high-capacity baling in the 5-ft x 6-ft bale class. This configured unit features a 1,000-rpm driveline, twine system, hydraulic bale ramp, and flotation tires, combining dependable bale formation with practical handling and transport features. The 605N produces bales from 36 to 72 inches in diameter and 61 inches wide, making it suitable for operators who need flexibility in bale size for hay production, storage, and feeding operations.

High-Capacity Variable-Chamber Baling

Built around Vermeer’s 605N baler platform, this machine uses a dual-stage bale chamber and eight belts to form consistent round bales across a broad diameter range. The cammed wide pickup measures 77 inches tooth-to-tooth and uses hydraulic lift to collect windrows efficiently. Bale shape indicators support monitoring during formation, while the E-Link Pro control system with a 7-inch color touchscreen provides an operator interface for baler functions and information.

The baler is configured with a 1,000-rpm driveline and cut-out clutch option. Its optional twine tie system provides a practical bale-tie configuration, while the hydraulic bale ramp helps discharge completed bales. Optional 21.5L-16.1 flotation tires are included in the listed configuration, providing the specified 129-inch transport width associated with that tire option.
