2025 Vermeer® Self-propelled Balers ZR5-1200
ZR5-1200 highlights- Get ready to let the ZR5-1200 self-propelled baler change the way you put up hay
- Make quick work of a field with an unprecedented level of comfort and maneuverability
- Reduce the number of steps needed to make a bale with automation
- Built tough and specifically designed for one job — baling
Features may include:
More bales in less time- Save time when picking up bales with integrated quarter-turn technology that allows bales to be placed parallel to the windrow.
- Minimize missed windrows to help maximize productivity. The zero-turn capabilities of the ZR5-1200 means you can spend less time correcting course and more time baling when compared to a conventional tractor-baler combination.
- By automating parts of the baling process, the ZR5-1200 helps reduce the number of manual steps to make a bale to just one step.
- Experience speeds of up to 12 mph (19.3 km/hr) in the field based on ground conditions, and up to 34 mph (54 km/hr) when in transport mode.
- Experience a smooth, comfortable ride with the cab uniquely positioned over the suspension. A patented independent suspension system within the ZR5-1200 allows operators to better handle the uneven ground conditions that naturally come with baling.
- No need to turn around while baling — the ZR5-1200 cab was built with wide visibility in mind with two cameras to see both the baler pickup and rear view of the machine displayed on a screen in the cab.
- The bale chamber can be removed for quick maintenance. After the chamber is detached from the base unit, operators have convenient access to the bale chamber for routine maintenance.
