Any one using this baler and what do you like or dislike about it. I can buy one that has about 200 bales run through it for $13000. The baler has net wrap.

The only thing I was trying to do over the edge net but never could get it to work just right. Wouldnt cover the edge. (prob something not set right) Other than that we are very pleased
I believe JD is the only one with over the edge wraphalfbean":32kmy3b2 said:The factory guy told me they will not do over the edge. The wrap will go to the edge though. Overall, I really like the baler. Just wish my neighbors would quit asking me to bale theirs.
shorty":l0ymd9tj said:Does anyone know how a 5410 rebel baler works with wet hay for balage, I make about 500 bales of balage a year , I have a NH 638 hi-moisture baler and I'm not happy with it. someone told me they don't recomend a rebel for wet hay.
We sell the 1200 nm clutches, 885 ft. lbs because many of our customers are baling haylage with their Rebel balers. NEVER grease the Radial Pin clutches. Greasing these clutches will cause them to fail.hurleyjd":3jml2d5c said:I got all of the problems fixed on my 5400 Rebel so I guess I will get by another year and then maybe another.
There are two crowding wedges in this baler one on either side just above the large roller. This really helped a lot. There is no reason for a baler not to bale if it is brought back to spec. Also I replaced the radial pin clutch with one with friction disks in it. The folks at Vermerr told me that the Radial Pin clutch was set to slip at 735 foot lbs. I think it would slip at a lower figure than that.Last year we broke the pto gears because of the radial pin clutch kept slipping. When it slips then there is a lot of high speed hammering on the drive train of the baler and the tractor. The new clutch was set at 735 foot lbs also and has worked super well.
The Over the edge Net wrap is made for JD by Tama. http://www.ambraco.com/BaleNetwrap/TamaNet_EdegToEdgeWithTamaTech_Netwrap.phpJames T":376az67n said:Regarding the Rebel 5410, just make sure the top, front brace has been installed. Not long after initial production, there were a lot of complaints about the net wrap not cutting cleanly or not at all. The bales were not consistent either. Vermeer came up with a fix for this and paid for it through the dealers. But not all dealers got the recall message. Vermeer tech support is excellent. Just call them with the serial number and they can tell you if the fix was performed on that baler. Mine works very well now.
I do like the JD's that apply net wrap all the way to the bale shoulder.

The Vermeer Rebel 5410 & 5420 is designed to use every net wrap currently on the market. Over the edge works fine in any of the 5410 balers.
