2025 Vermeer® Self-propelled Balers ZR-4S
ZR-4S highlights- Experience maximized productivity and increased efficiency with a baler that’s ready to work as hard as you do
- Peace of mind and convenient maintenance come standard
- Comfort like you’ve never experienced while baling hay
- Market bales like a pro with the bale shape, appearance and data you’ve been waiting for
Features may include:
Maximized productivity and efficiency- Control is at your fingertips with the monitor in the ZR-4S. View and keep track of real-time statistics including bearing temperature, average moisture, bale weight and bales per hour. Adjust bale shape, net tension and density without ever leaving the cab.
- Pull net all the way to the edge with a proven mechanical netwrap system that provides simplicity and convenience during operation. This system allows the baler’s belts to do the work rather than having to pull the net onto the bale using a rubber roller, which takes out unnecessary complexity and maintenance needs.
- Experience increased visibility of what’s in front and behind you with large windows and cameras on the pickup and tailgate. This allows for better windrow following, resulting in better bale appearance and an easier learning curve for new operators.
- Keep track of your baler – even when you’re not in the cab with VermeerOne™. Stats about your machine including machine location, fuel consumption, engine hours, fault codes and bale stats can be accessed by you or your dealer to keep you in the field.
- Convenient maintenance comes standard with a chamber that detaches from the power unit. Operators can choose to detach the chamber completely or use cleanout mode.
- Minimize maintenance and prolong the life of your machine with a 5-bar camless wide pickup equipped with 70 rubber-mounted pickup teeth for added strength and durability in varying crop types and conditions.
- Let the Auto Lube greasing system take care of maintenance for you as it provides automatic lubrication to critical bearings at user-defined intervals through the Atlas Pro control system. Alerts in cab when grease levels are low.
- A new and improved cab keeps you comfortable and productive all day long. An ergonomic joystick, convenient toggle switches on the armrest, added cupholders, a refrigerator and foot pegs help make even the longest days feel short.
- Experience a smooth ride and handle uneven ground conditions with ease with a patented independent suspension system with the cab positioned strategically over the suspension.
- Operators can rest assured with a 3-year pickup warranty on internal components including parts and labor.
- Bale at the speed you need to get the job done. A hydraulically reversible pickup gives you the ability to clear a plug with ease giving you confidence and peace of mind for a long day’s work.
- Spend more time baling when it matters most. TempSense™ stands a safeguard – proactively giving real-time insights to help prevent bearing failure that could lead to a baler fire while also promoting preventative maintenance.
- 14 LED lights provide added visibility while baling in dark conditions. An LED light on each door, one on the pickup and one in the netwrap hood provide visibility for routine maintenance.
- Let the ZR-4S do the work for you. Integrated automation lets you focus on your next bale while the machine takes care of the rest. The ZR-4S stops, ties and ejects the bale on its own to help you save time and effort while baling.
