WHAT'S NEW
BALER
A new, beefed-up heavy
duty baler from Sperry New
Holland is tailored for the
special needs of irrigated
alfalfa producers.
Designated the Model 430,
the new 16 by 18 baler has the
added strength to enable it to
handle the stresses of
crossing irrigation ditches
and borders on a continuous
basis, says New Holland. A
special feature is a heavier,
stronger axle that minimizes
stresses and easily carries
the baler m rough terrain.
Bale shape and density
have been improved by the
use of an adjustable feeder
back and the addition of four
hay restrictor doors on the
bale chamber sides as
auxiliaries to the upper and
lower tension rails.
The improved bale density
and shape control of the
“430” reduce handling
problems where these large
capacity balers are teamed
with automatic .bale han
dling equipment.
