Bale Wrapper Powered by Gas Engine
All hydraulic operations on this new round bale wrapper are powered by a gas engine, freeing up your tractor for handling bales."It's equipped with a pull-start 5 hp Briggs & Stratton engine mounted in front. The engine drives a pump that powers a pair of drive rollers used to wrap the bale. A hydraulic cylinder dumps the bale once it's wrapped," says Jon Mattson, sales manager for Salsco, manufacturer.
Transport wheels can be locked up out of the way, allowing the bale wrapper to be mounted on steel skids for more stability during wrapping. Flip-up guide wheels on each side of the drive rollers keep the bale centered on the rollers. The guide wheels can be adjusted for 4 or 5-ft. dia. bales.
The bale wrapper is available either for 3pt. mounting ($5,300) or with the optional engine, drawbar hitch, and transport tire package for an extra $1,500.
