Just wanting to get the general opinion of a Vermeer 505I. I can find lots of info on the super I but not the standard I model.
I have a good reliable 4x4 John Deere baler but found a good deal on the 505I. I would like to pick up a bigger baler and still keep the John Deere around. I would be baling150 5x5's at the most.
I noticed the tensioners were double springs with no air or hydraulics. The baler has electric tie which I know can be troublesome sometimes. Pickup looks to be in good shape.
How tight of a roll will the spring tensioners make? What would a bale from the 505I probably weigh?
Would a kubota M7060 be enough tractor to operate it?
