Square Balers

Small Square Balers



Operators who custom bale, especially for horse farms, are big fans of New Holland square balers. New Holland bales are the only choice for hand-feeding because they quickly separate into flakes. Professionals put their trust in BC5000 model balers because they make consistently dense, well-shaped bales that are easy to handle. The BC5070 is also available in a Hayliner model for improved bale shape and consistency.

  • Ask those who know. Commercial haying operations and operators who custom bale for horse farms put their trust in the proven performance of New Holland balers. They know their livelihoods depend on making consistent bales that meet the exacting demands of horse and livestock owners.
  • New Holland bales are the only choice for hand-feeding. You can quickly separate the flakes of New Holland bales, and with New Holland's consistent bale density, you know exactly how much feed each animal receives.
  • Rugged bale chamber is designed for better bale formation. Six hay dogs hold charges in place for firm, quality bales.
  • Fast plunger speed and long 30-inch plunger stroke maximize baler capacity. Speed is set from 79 to 93 SPM, depending on the model. The strong plunger packs uniform, dense bales in all crop conditions. High-strength steel is used throughout the plunger mechanism, and the plunger rides on sealed ball bearings and white-iron slide blocks for consistent performance and minimum maintenance.
  • Proven twine knotters or wire twisters go thousands of bales without a miss. Gear drives make them even easier to keep in time. Twisters are available on the BC5060 and BC5070 only.
  • Heavy-duty tongue attaches directly to the axle (not the bale chamber) to keep towing stresses from passing through the chamber. Two field positions are available for use with various tractor widths. Optional hydraulic tongue swing allows you to use hydraulic muscle to swing the baler into transport or working position quickly and easily.
  • The tapered roller bearings and heat-treated, alloy-steel gears of the main-drive gearbox run in oil for smooth, quiet working.
  • A power-pivot PTO is standard on all models. You can make tight turns with less wear on the universal joints.
  • Optional bale chutes include a quarter-turn bale chute that drops bales on their sides so twine is kept away from the ground to prevent rotting. Bales are placed in a proper position for retrieval by automatic bale wagon. The optional triple-purpose chute supports bales as they leave the chamber, and can be set to roll bales to the left, away from next windrow.
  • Auxiliary lights (standard on the BC5080 and optional on all other models) and a road light kit allow for night baling and safe transport.
  • BC5070 Hayliner - Bales produced by the Hayliner are more uniformly shaped, have improved bale length consistency, and are slightly heavier.
Improvements in 2009 To Make You More Productive
  • New Holland has made many improvements to the BC5000 Series square balers for 2009. Most refine existing features, to make them more convenient or even more durable.
  • More Durability on All moels. Building in more strength and durability is one way New Holland has improved this already top-of-line baler. New improvements include:
    • Reinforced tension rail anchor support
    • Convex slide block for longer wear and improved plunger performance
    • Haydog spring mount reinforcement for improved durability
  • Refined Design and More Convenience. Adding more conveniences also improves productivity:
    • Flip-up shield over main gearbox improves serviceability
    • Redesigned knotter gear drive provides easier pickup belt service
    • Easier access to the plunger bearing and cam for inspection and adjustment
    • New hydraulic hose storage slots in the power pivot shield
    • New optional halogen work lights for improved visibility
    • New optional roading light kit for states requiring them



Bale Throwers

Completely fill an 18-foot wagon with bales up to 38 in. long and 65 pounds each with the Model 72 bale thrower. Compatible with the BC5050, BC5060 and BC5070 balers, it increases productivity in the field, and the thrower’s simple design allows for easy adjustment and servicing.

Model 72 Thrower
Cross Section 14" x 18"
Length (max.) 38"
Weight (max.) 80 lbs
Apron Belt (two) 12" wide, 2 ply,
diamond-tread
Apron Belt Speed (max.) 2570 rpm
Apron Belt Roller Speed (max.) 1946 rpm

  • A simple, clean design allows for easy adjustment and servicing.
  • Strong, durable diamond-tread belts provide reliable performance.
  • Tractor-mounted distance control toggle switch makes it easy to change the throwing speed of the belts to change the distance bales are thrown. The thrower can also be set to drop bales directly on the ground if needed, without removing it from the baler.
  • A distance indicator lets you know at a glance the relative distance bales are thrown.
  • Direction control allows you to change the position of the thrower. When you move the tractor remote control valve, a double-acting hydraulic cylinder pivots the thrower up to 30 degrees left or right, for turning or baling on a contour.
  • A wagon hitch attaches to the baler axle to keep towing stresses where they belong. It adjusts to narrow road width for easy transport.
  • Rod spacers allow you to control apron spacing when baling light, springy, or semi-cured material.
