Vermeer 605N Round Baler – 5' x 6', 540 RPM, Twine, Ramp [605730371]

Vermeer 605N Round Baler is a high-capacity round baler designed for producing 5-foot-wide bales with adjustable diameters from 36 to 72 inches. Built with durable, heavy-duty components, the 605N combines a dual-stage bale chamber, eight premium mini rough-top belts, hydraulic pickup lift, and an E-Link Pro control system to support consistent baling performance across hay and forage applications. This configuration is identified as a 5-foot by 6-foot, 540-rpm, twine and ramp model; however, the manufacturer-verified information lists the twine system and hydraulic bale ramp as optional, so their installation should be confirmed for the specific unit.

Product Overview

The Vermeer 605N is engineered for high-capacity baling and offers a 61-inch bale width with a bale diameter range of 36 to 72 inches. Its dual-stage bale chamber supports bale formation, while the eight-belt design and premium mini rough-top belts help manage material during the baling cycle. A physical bale-density gauge and bale-shape indicators provide information during operation, and moisture monitoring is available for readings up to 27%.

The baler uses a 540-rpm standard-lube driveline with a friction clutch. The manufacturer also lists a 1000-rpm driveline option with a cut-out clutch, but this product listing identifies the 540-rpm configuration. The E-Link Pro control system includes a 7-inch color touchscreen, and ISOBUS capability is standard.
