Agricultural Round Baler – 9YG-1.25 With Spring-loaded Pickup

Product Overview

The 9YG-1.25 Round Baler with Spring-loaded Pickup is a compact, high-efficiency solution for small to medium farms harvesting dry hay, alfalfa, and grass silage. Designed for gentle feeding and minimal leaf loss, its spring-tooth pickup ensures clean, uniform bales—ideal for livestock feed or export markets. With automatic net wrapping, sensor-controlled density, and low power requirements (≥75 kW), it delivers up to 100 bales/hour in fields as narrow as 2 meters. Perfect for pasture management, dairy farms, and mixed-crop operations where precision and reliability matter most.

Technical Specifications

? Applications & Benefits: Precision Baling for Premium Forage

Unlike heavy-duty balers built for crop residue or wet straw, the 9YG-1.25 with spring-loaded pickup is engineered specifically for high-value forage production—where leaf retention, bale uniformity, and feed quality matter most.

✅ Ideal for Delicate, Dry Crops

• Alfalfa, clover, ryegrass, and low-moisture hay benefit from the gentle, flexible action of the spring-tooth pickup, which lifts material without crushing or tearing—preserving up to 15% more leaves compared to rigid or hammer-claw systems.
• Perfect for dairy farms, export hay producers, and organic pasture operations where nutritional value directly impacts profitability.

✅ Designed for Quality-Centric Operations

• Automatic net wrap ensures tight, weather-resistant bales that maintain shape during transport and storage—critical for meeting export standards or long-term silage needs.
• Sensor-controlled density prevents over-compression, protecting fragile stems and maintaining optimal porosity for proper curing.

✅ Agile in Challenging Terrain

• With a compact working width (≤2.85 m) and low ground pressure, it navigates steep slopes, terraced fields, and orchard alleys where larger European balers simply can’t operate—without sacrificing bale size (Φ1300×1250mm).

? Economic Impact

• Reduces labor by 30%+ vs. manual raking and tying
• Increases usable forage yield through higher leaf retention
• Lowers rejection rates in premium hay markets due to consistent bale quality

? How to Choose the Right Round Baler for Your Farm

Not all round balers are created equal—your choice should match what you’re baling, where you’re baling it, and what you plan to do with the bales.

✅ Choose the 9YG-1.25 with Spring-Loaded Pickup if:

• You primarily bale dry, leafy forage like alfalfa, clover, ryegrass, or cured hay
• Feed quality matters—you need minimal leaf loss and high nutritional value (e.g., for dairy cows or export hay)
• Your fields are small, hilly, or fragmented, with narrow access paths (<3 m)
• You use a 100–130 HP tractor and prioritize smooth, low-vibration operation

? Consider a different model if:

• You regularly bale wet rice straw, standing corn stalks, or lodged wheat residue → look at our interchangeable hammer-claw version baler
• You need ultra-high capacity (>100 bales/hour) on large flat fields → explore our 9YG-2.24D heavy-duty series baler

? Pro Tip: If your operation includes both premium hay in spring and crop residue in autumn, consider ordering both pickup systems—they’re designed for quick, tool-free swapping.

? Real Farmers, Real Results

?? United States – Premium Dairy Forage Production

Customer: James R. Thompson
Farm: Green Meadow Dairy
Location: Wisconsin, USA
Use Case: Baling high-quality alfalfa for lactating cows

“Our herd thrives on leaf-rich alfalfa—and this baler delivers. The spring-loaded pickup preserves leaves better than any machine we’ve tested. It runs smoothly all day, and we consistently bale 80+ uniform, net-wrapped rounds during peak season. Feed quality has never been higher.”

 

?? Vietnam – Smallholder Straw Utilization

Customer: Nguyen Thi Lan
Organization: Mekong Delta Agricultural Cooperative
Location: An Giang Province, Vietnam
Use Case: Collecting dry rice straw for cattle feed

“Before, we bundled straw by hand—slow, back-breaking work. Now, with the 9YG-1.25, we bale clean, compact rolls in minutes. Even on our narrow paddies, it moves easily behind a 100 HP tractor. Our cattle get better feed, and our labor costs dropped by half.”

Our Balers VS. Typical European/US Balers

While global brands like John Deere, New Holland, and KUHN offer reliable heavy-duty balers, they’re often over-engineered—and overpriced—for small to mid-sized operations. Here’s how the 9YG-1.25 with spring-loaded pickup delivers smarter value:

❓ Purchasing & Installation FAQ

 

Q: How is the baler transported? Does it need to be disassembled?

A: The 9YG-1.25 features a one-piece design and is pre-assembled at the factory. Standard sea/land transport requires no disassembly; simply secure it to a pallet or frame. Upon arrival at the port, unloading can be done using a forklift or lifting sling, and it can be placed on site within 30 minutes.

Q: Do I need to assemble the machine myself after receiving it?

A: No complicated assembly is required. We provide pre-commissioned, fully assembled delivery. You only need to:

1. Connect the tractor's three-point suspension to the PTO shaft
2. Add gear oil (before first use)
3. Install the baling wire roll. The entire process takes approximately 15–20 minutes and includes a illustrated manual and video instructions.

Q: Do you provide installation guidance or on-site commissioning services?

A: Yes! We offer:

• Free remote video guidance (WeChat/WhatsApp/Zoom)
• Local service providers in Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, South America, etc., with optional paid on-site setup (additional charges apply)
• All operation videos and electronic manuals are included with the shipment.

Q: What checks should be performed before first use?

A: We recommend checking the following three items:

• Is the pickup spring loose?
• Hydraulic clutch tension (if equipped)
• Is the wire reel bracket secure?
• See the "First Day Start-up Checklist" (PDF included) for a detailed list.

Q: Can it be directly connected to my tractor? Does it require modification?

A: The 9YG-1.25 uses a standard Category II three-point suspension interface and 540/720 rpm PTO, compatible with over 95% of 80–130 HP tractors worldwide (such as John Deere 5E, Kubota M8, Fendt 300, etc.). No modification is required; it's ready to use immediately.

Q: How long is the warranty period? What parts are included?

A: The entire machine comes with a 12-month limited warranty, while core components (gearbox, spindle, and pickup drive system) have a 24-month extended warranty. Wear parts (spring teeth, belts, and mesh winding mechanism springs) are not covered under warranty, but they are inexpensive and easy to replace.
