Premium MegaWide™ pickup

The premium MegaWide pickup is available for the L331 and L341 Large Square Balers. The premium pickup offers larger components to increase the durability and reliability of the pickup.

Double-tie knotter system provides reliable knotting in high density and the most difficult baling conditions

L331 and L341 Large Square Balers (LSBs) come standard with double-tie knotters.

John Deere-designed knotters are designed for performance, reliability, and reduced maintenance requirements. The auto-lube system is integrated into the knotter frames, and two internal grease ports reduce the time spent on pre-baling maintenance.

Integration of the lube system block into the knotter frame reduces the number of grease lines required for each knotter.

The integrated grease block results in a reduction in the amount of grease lines required to grease the knotter system and the number of grease line connection points. Fewer feet of grease lines and fewer connection points mean less maintenance and more time baling.

Baler monitor system is International Standard Organization Bus (ISOBUS) compatible

John Deere large square balers (LSBs) are ISOBUS compatible which enables them to work with any ISOBUS monitor system.

Baler control can also be incorporated into the CommandCenter™ on R Series Tractors as long as the tractor is ordered ISOBUS ready (GS-ready wiring harness option code 8064 or GS AutoTrac™-ready wiring harness option code 8067on 6R Tractors).

Current GreenStar™ (GS) displays, including the touchscreen 2630, 1800 as well as the GS 2600, are compatible for customers who already own a John Deere ISOBUS display.

Moisture sensor

The John Deere integrated moisture sensor for large square balers provides bale moisture levels throughout the baling process. Mounted forward in the bale chamber, it provides timely information for real-time decisions. This sensor was designed by John Deere specifically for the application, and uses an integrated display for less clutter in the cab. It operates in a complete range of moistures from dry to wet crops.

Preservative applicator

Preservative tank

Preservative application allows harvesting hay at slightly higher moisture levels without worrying about spoilage or heat. Using preservative increases the baling window by allowing operators to begin baling earlier in the day and continue baling later into the evening, this greatly decreases the dependency on weather. This application system is capable of preserving hay up to a 27 percent moisture level without compromising hay quality.

Crop detection sensors

The one series LSB offers a John Deere designed preservative application system. The John Deere system is integrated with the John Deere moisture sensor. The high-accuracy moisture sensor enables more accurate application of preservative. Crop detection sensors detect crop to ensure that preservative is only being applied when crop is present.

BalerAssist

The BalerAssist drivetrain system is an industry-exclusive offering that gives the operator the ability to hydraulically control the drivetrain. The system is able to operate in both the forward direction as well as the reverse direction and at two speeds each direction with a maximum speed of about 4 plunger strokes per minute.

Wear parts box

A wear parts box will be available for the L331 and L341 Large Square Balers (LSBs). The wear parts box includes 18 of the most common wear parts identified by customer support and engineering. Having these parts on hand will help producers keep their balers running during the season. The parts box is an option that can be ordered when configuring the baler.

Bale Mobile app provides more information to enable better decisions

Similar yield data that has been available for crops like corn and soybeans is now available for hay, thanks to the large square balers and the Bale Mobile app. The One Series Large Square Balers measure moisture and weight for each bale. This app takes that real-time information to a whole new level, whether baling, loading, or in the office managing.
