Description

The Vermeer 605S Rancher Variable-Chamber Round Baler is a rugged, reliable haymaking solution built for demanding ranch and farm applications. This 5-ft-wide, 6-ft-diameter-class baler forms bales from 36 to 72 inches in diameter and combines a wide camless pickup, mechanical netwrap system, durable bale-forming belts, and Atlas Pro control system. The supplied configuration includes netwrap, a bale ramp, and flotation tires, helping operators efficiently gather windrows, produce consistent round bales, and handle finished bales in a range of field conditions.

Built for Flexible Round Baling

The 605S Rancher is a variable-chamber round baler designed to produce bales with diameters from 36 to 72 inches and a fixed bale width of 61 inches. This bale-size range supports flexibility across different forage conditions and handling preferences. The baler uses eight premium mini rough-top belts, each 6.8 inches wide, to form the bale as material enters the chamber.

Crop collection is handled by a camless, wide 4-bar pickup measuring 77 inches tooth-to-tooth and 91 inches across the outside flare. Sixty double rubber-mounted teeth help gather windrowed material, while poly stripper bands and adjustable gauge wheels support pickup operation across the field.

Netwrap, Ramp and Flotation Equipment

A mechanical netwrap system is included for tying finished bales. The model also supports an optional bale ramp; with the ramp fitted, the overall length is 208 inches. The listed 21.5L-16.1 tires provide the specified flotation configuration for this product. An optional net-lift system, bale scales, maintenance lights, and Auto Lube system are also listed as available equipment for the 605S Rancher.
