- Here we are in front of the ZR5.
We wanted to share with
you a number of items
that customers really enjoy about the ZR5.
One of the first things they comment on
is the comfort of the ride.
A lot of that is due to
the fact that our cab
is positioned over our
patent-pending suspension system.
When ZR5 operators are spending long hours
in the seat, they've
really come to appreciate
the automation that comes
standard on the ZR5.
This allows operators to
sit back and just steer,
and all the operator has
to do every bale cycle
is hit one button to
resume ground speed again.
Customers have also shared
with us the fact that they
can have great visibility
to both their pickup,
as well as the bale ejecting,
through two cameras:
one underneath the machine
and one at the rear
of the machine that can be
viewed on the in-cab display.
The ZR5 has two different steering modes:
a field steer mode for when
you're in the field baling,
and a transport mode
for going down the road.
In the field steer mode,
all the steering happens
from the rear drive wheels,
while these front wheels
are free to caster.
That allows for that zero-turn radius
in order to give you more
maneuverability in the field
than a traditional pull-type baler.
When traveling down the road,
you switch into the transport mode,
and what that does is allows you to steer
with these front tire rods
and steer these front wheels
to give you the stability
you need to go down the road
at 30-plus miles an hour.
When we designed the ZR5,
we wanted to make things
like maintenance convenient
for the customer.
That's why we designed
it so you can unload
the bale chamber for ease of maintenance
within a matter of minutes.
Those are a few of customers'
favorite things about the ZR5.
