They made a couple different designs. Red or grey, grey is newer.
Fixed chamber, series of belts. Has monitor to tell you when ready to tie and electric tie.
Makes a decent 4 ft tall 5 ft wide bale.
were dependable an made good bales, probably close to 20 years old.
Not the Hott baler on the market today but should work well for you.
they sell for between 600 and 3500 depending on how used and early or grey model.
