2024 John Deere C451R Base

2024 John Deere C451R

• Creates 4 ft by 5 ft (1.2 m x 1.6 m) bales

• High capacity, high performance 2.2 m wide precutter

• Wide hydraulic drop-floor clears even the worst blockage with ease

• 3 powered fixed rolls and 2 large diameter belt driving rolls inside the chamber

• Produce and wrap up to 60 bales per hour with the Fast Release System and 40 rpm wrapping arms

Features may include:

• Versatile, productive, and durable premium pickup

• Cam-track technology provides an efficient solution for such needs. The traditional stripper design provides reduced space between the pickup tines and rotor feeder, while the tine motion helps to avoids pinching.

• The cam-less technology requires long strippers, creating a dead zone between the tines and rotor. Additionally, fixed tines can easily pinch crops in sticky conditions, causing plugs that need to be manually removed.

• The cam-track pickup features a low turning speed and big bearings on both side of the tine bars. The cam lever is made of forged steel. All these features guarantee a long component life and low maintenance.

• The C451R Wrapping Baler is designed for the most demanding operators. The pickup features only premium components and concepts such as:

• 2.2-m (7.2-ft) wide pickup, with a 1.92-m (6.3-ft) tine-to-tine distance - this important width provides comfort and speed capacity when harvesting the largest swaths.

• Five tine bars - the fifth bar allows the tines to rake two more times per second versus the John Deere standard four-tine pickup.

• O-shaped tubular tine bars with central spider reinforcement - tine bars are assembled with ball bearings on the central spider, and central spiders highly limit tine bars bending in the very heavy crops.

• 6mm (0.23-in.) diameter galvanized tines with high strength to harvest the toughest crops.

• Tines are designed to fold to replace potential shear bolt or cam clutch overload safety. 6-mm (0.23-in.) diameter tines push pickup maximum intake capacity up to 18 kW (24.1 hp), a value often not reached by machines using cam or shear bolt protected pickup.

• Stainless-steel strippers (exclusive feature) that give highly durable rust protection, perfect gliding capacity no matter the material, and is much more resistant to acid damage caused by additive uses (propionic acid).

• High-capacity feeding system boosts productivity

• The C451R and C461R Balers use the premium pickup that is also equipped on high-spec V4X1R Variable Chamber Balers. To fit all conditions, the baler is available with a 2-m (6.56-ft) or 2.2-m (7.22-ft) width.

• The pickup, driven by 19.05-mm (0.75-in.) heavy-duty chains, features five tubular tine bars with a low rotating speed. The large-diameter strippers allow five tine bars in the pickup. With bearings added to the cam track, all these features provide a smooth and quiet ride with extended uptime.

• In addition to the high-spec features, the C451R and C461R benefit from stainless-steel strippers, a market exclusive. Stainless steel provides the following advantages:

• No rust

• Constant gliding capacity

• High resistance to aggressive additives such as propionic acids

• The C451R and C461R Balers pickup uses the cam-track design, providing a better solution to harvesting wet crops. Contrary to the cam-less design, the cam track

• pickup: Features a short space between the tines and rotor, limiting dead zone

• Avoids pinching area, so no crops are plugged into the pickup drums
