| I have a CASEIH 8575 Silage Special, same as a 4755. I like the baler. The throat, being a 3x3, is small, and wet wads on end windrows, or just big lumps from raking the ends will sometimes plug it. The balers are HEAVY, make sure you have enough tractor for it. Like any square baler, you can have knotter issues, so far, I haven't found anything that I can't handle myself. As for capacity? Around a bale a minute seems about right. I won't get quite the capacity in tons as our 4x6 RBX462 round baler. As far as weak spots. The pickup on mine kind of gives fits. I understand that Maize corp has a dual cam pickup, and a center support kit, that would be nice. I think I've got my pickup pretty well straightened out, but, I haven't gotten into the big square part of hay season yet. The baler has been a good marketing tool, but, I'm not sure that I'm doing enough with it to really justify having it. It may well be for sale at the end of the season, if you are still looking then. | |
