John Deere V461R

Features
- Super Fast Bale Ejection. Get ready for the fastest gate cycle time in the industry. At times as fast as 4 seconds, you’ll be rolling up windrows in no time.
- Nearly Plug-Free. Let baler plugs be a thing of the past. The V451R and V461R Models features a patented, full-width hydraulically operated drop floor.
- Cut Your Bale Processing Time. Wasted hay is wasted money. With 13- or 25-knife options you can cut plant material into 3 inch (7.6 cm) or 1.6 inch (4.1 cm) lengths. This ensures your hay or silage will be pulled into the starter rollers and make it into the finished bale.
- Let Technology Do the Work for You. Take the stress out of baling. With Tractor Baler Automation the tractor automatically stops, ejects the bale, closes, and starts up again.**Tractor Baler Automation is only compatible with model year 2010 or newer John Deere 6030/7030. Premium, or model year 2011 or newer 6R/7R/8R Tractors that are GreenStar™ or AutoTrac™ ready.
- Blaze Through Fields. Get in and out of the field faster than ever. With an average driving speed of 9 mph (14.5 kph), the 960 produces up to a remarkable 52 bales an hour.* * Observed John Deere field tests. Your results may be different depending on field conditions, crop conditions, and terrain.
Hassle Free Maintenance. Down time is wasted time. With only 8 grease zerks and bearings that are automatically greased, you’ll spend more time baling.
