Claas 2100 RC quadrant

[zetor-man]

thinking about a purchase of this type of baler for silage,

I want the 80x70 bale as i think it will wrap better than a 120*70

Any user experiences of the claas 2100 RC

Don't get carried away with any ideas of fast baling as they aren't a fast Baler compared to a New Holland BB930 and density and shape won't be hardly there either but it's reasonably reliable with maintenance. Pickup's are known to crack around its mountings but easy to weld. Knotters need new roll pins every 8000 bales as will let go soon after so easier to replace before they go.
As any square Baler PTO shafts wear out far to quickly and are expensive.
Condition, condition , condition is everything when buying a square Baler so look carefully!!!!.

As for wrapping a squarer Bale will always wrap easier.

Thanks

i have been put off the new holland due to the pre chamber mechanism not being idea for baling silage


i like the simplicity of the stuffer mechanism on the claas

Baled some proper wet stuff with a bb930 no problems very strong well built baler with a bigger appetite than a 2100. Bale length is a lot more consistent with a pre-chamber.

What about a D1010 silage baler, how effective where they in damp silage conditions?

Do these silage balers have chopping ?
