New Holland BC5070
Features
IMPROVEMENTS TO MAKE YOU MORE PRODUCTIVE
New Holland has made many improvements to the BC5000 Series square balers from our last generation of balers. Most refine existing features, to make them more convenient or even more durable.
MORE DURABILITY ON ALL MODELS
Building in more strength and durability is one way New Holland has improved this already top-of-line baler. New improvements include:
• Reinforced tension rail anchor support
• Convex slide block for longer wear and improved plunger performance
• Haydog spring mount reinforcement for improved durability
REFINED DESIGN AND MORE CONVENIENCE
Adding more conveniences also improves productivity:
• Flip-up shield over main gearbox improves serviceability
• Redesigned knotter gear drive provides easier pickup belt service
• Easier access to the plunger bearing and cam for inspection and adjustment
• New hydraulic hose storage slots in the power pivot shield
• New optional halogen work lights for improved visibility
• New optional roading light kit for states requiring them
CHANGES TO THE BC5070
• Larger wagon hitch bolt hole for easier hookup
• Relocated Hydraformatic oil pump for easier servicing
• New Class 6 heavy-duty driveline for improved durability
• Replaceable feeder floor for reduced service costs
• New pickup drive chain access shield for easier servicing
• Reinforced tongue for added durability
• Wider clevis hitch to accommodate larger tractor drawbars
• Star wheel moved rearward for improved bale length consistency
• Eight-ball twine box for increased twine capacity
• Cast iron connecting rod for improved durability
A WIDER PICKUP AND MORE BALING CAPACITY FOR LARGE FARM OPERATIONS
With the widest pickup, more tines and heavy-duty features throughout, the BC5070 is sized for serious bale-making. It has a 75-inch SuperSweep™ pickup, a Class 6 heavy-duty driveline to push more power into bale formation and a plunger that moves at 93 strokes per minute to densely pack the crop. The rotary feeding system is also standard.
BC5070 - ECONOMICAL AND DURABLE
Model BC5070 (14'' x 18'') balers are the top performer in their class. Offering larger baling operations a wide 75-inch, six-bar Super Sweep™ pickup guided by a 15 x 1.00-6 pneumatic gauge wheel to quickly gather the largest windrows. Standard model BC5070 balers features a heavy-duty category 6 PTO driveline with the exclusive Power-Pivot feature for tight turns. It requires just 75 PTO horsepower and is available with twine or wire tying mechanisms. The twine knotter mechanism is upgraded to the heavy-duty design with a split frame for easy servicing and reliability to last for thousands of bales.
