that facilitate road and laneway repairs, as well as farm maintenance and construction. For silage and hay bales, farmers can remove the sides and insert an extension at the back, converting it into a bale trailer. This extension can be swapped with a 1.5m side equipped with a grain door, transforming the trailer into a chaser bin or grouper for sowing or harvesting. An additional 900mm extension can be added for green chop silage processing. Farmers can also choose between two sizes of this versatile equipment - the 16-tonne VT5500 with a 5.5m body length or the larger 20-tonne VT6100 with a 6.1m body length. Apart from the size, both models share key characteristics, including the use of high tensile Hardox steel to increase wear capacity. Whether it’s the flat top version or the gravel trailer variant, the equipment features a Hardox steel structure. One of the unique selling points of the VT trailers is the integration of twin
tipping rams and an interlocking chassis, ensuring maximum security throughout the tipping cycle. The interlocking chassis system provides enhanced support in challenging conditions, minimising flex in the overall chassis system. An additional advantage is the single

65mm diameter tip pivot pin, providing more stability during tipping than the standard two-pin system. Standard across Stewart’s entire range, both VT models come equipped with a plethora of features, including 10-stud axles, high-speed wheel rims, a hydraulic braking system, LED lighting systems, and more. The trailer is shot-blasted and finished with two pack polyurethane Flexi Paint for a long-lasting finish. The support provided by Armour Group, a family-owned company with over 45 years in the market, ensures reliable after-sales service. With three units of the VT5500 already operational on Australian farms, its popularity is expected to grow following the public introduction at AgQuip in New South Wales. “It’s a novel design and a fresh innovation,” Dunlop says. “We’ve been developing this with the factory for between 18 months and two years. It’s the next step in the market, providing us with another competitive edge.”

full electronic system whereby it’s set by timer and regulates the greasing system as required in use. This workhorse is powered by a 93kW / 125hp FPT engine and has 7.06m maximum lift height with a load capacity of 4,000kg. It has an easy dumping rotation of 146 degrees which is specially designed to increase the operating angle, particularly useful when dumping with the boom raised. The telescopic boom is supported by Dieci’s patented Single Compensation Cylinder, located inside the lifting ram, which ensure that the load on the boom is always balanced. As far as steering modes are concerned, the machine is electronically set up for easy use from inside the cabin, with a 4-in1 ergonomically designed joystick with integrated forward and reverse. There is option of front steer only, but the operator can also choose crab steer, so that all four wheels move in opposite directions, to enable diagonal travel. When working near a wall or trying to stack into a shed in tight confines, there is also an option for all wheels to move in the same direction so the whole machine crabs sideways. Another important feature of note is the self-aligning system where the operator can press a button and as the wheel is turned, it will then tell the operator when the machine is in a straight-ahead position. The entirely electronically controlled,
G ecological and high-performance FPT engine, combined with the Evo2 transmission, transmits all the required power with reduced consumption to the Agri Plus 40.7 PS Evo 2. The other beautiful thing about not having complicated engine or a canvas electronic system, there isn’t the need for a diagnostic tool to troubleshoot mechanical or hydraulic issues that may arise. The machine will give the operator error codes on the dashboard for some of the common faults, enabling them to consult the operators’ book for those code, so they can do exactly what is needed to sort out the problem. With an extensive dealer network and technical support hotline, one can very easily get help over the phone if needed.

EVENTS Kuhn’s VBP 7190 on display in Toowoomba
Fresh French Two new mower conditioners and a round baler wrapper were the star attractions as Kuhn showed off its range of machinery in Queensland French manufacturer Kuhn used its expo in Toowoomba to display several new machines to the Australian market for the first time. The expo was held over two days in July at a local property and gave Kuhn the opportunity to showcase its product range to more than 350 registered attendees, with both customers and dealers. Product demonstrations were a key part of the expo, along with displays, workshops, and presentations. Kuhn experts also travelled from France and the Netherlands to attend and

provide industry and factory insights to the numerous people attending the event from across Australia. Kuhn Australia managing director Bruno Fetiveau says this year’s expo, which was the first to be held in Queensland, was a “tremendous success”. “Bringing dealers and customers together every few years to network and showcase our vast range of machinery is the highlight of our calendar,” he says. “The expo is an opportunity for us to share knowledge with dealers and customers. Expo attendees saw the FC 9330 RA in action

Wrap Star One of the showpiece machines was the VBP 7190 round baler wrapper combo, which was on display for the first time in Australia. This had previously been named 2023 Machine of the Year for its category at the SIMA Expo in France and was described by Kuhn as a “crowd favourite” during the expo. One major feature of the VBP 7190 is its use of Kuhn’s patented i-Dense density regulation system. This provides optimal bale start and baling pressure, the manufacturer says, which gives the highest densities for straw bales. The VBP 7190 also offers a three-tine integral rotor intake system, plus a fast tailgate and bale transfer to ensure excellent productivity. It can also produce a range of bale sizes from 80cm to 185cm in diameter. Kuhn’s twin-reel film binding system is also an optional extra on the VBP 7190. It has been built for maximum durability, Kuhn says, and this is evidenced by a heavy-duty bale chamber, rollers and drive components, plus its reinforced frame and extra-large tandem axle and tyres. Top Condition Two other machines being displayed for the first time during the expo were the FC 13460 RA and FC 9330 RA mower conditioners. The FC 13460 RA offers the largest mowing width in Kuhn’s range, with a variable working width of 12.4m to 13.4m. Designed to optimise output and quality, it features an integrated swath grouper and the mowing unit is fitted with Kuhn’s Optidisc Elite cutter bar, which has been recognised for its robustness and cutting quality.
It has been designed with soil compaction in mind, offering what the manufacturer says is perfect load distribution, limited weight and low-pressure tyres – all of which prevent the soil structure from being degraded, even in wet conditions. The FC 13460 RA can form a swath between 1.8m and 3m wide, while its telescopic axle makes it suitable for controlled traffic farming and increases the clearance. An ISOBUS control interface allows operators to connect with CCI 800 or CCI 1200 terminals. Lift-Control suspension can adjust the ground pressure through ISOBUS control, protecting the plant cover and ensuring a good ground following. The mower also features a pivoting steel finger conditioner, while the rotors are driven by a selector lever gearbox that allows operators to adapt their conditioning depending on the type of forage. The FC 9330 RA, meanwhile, has been designed to adapt its swath delivery between 1.8m and 3.6m. Its adaptability means it suits a variety of balers, particularly those with wide

pickups where the forage density is high. A CCI A3 joystick handle controls most of the common actions, while an integrated inclinometer controls the belt speed. Limiting the weight and stress on the tractor components were priorities during the development of the machine, Kuhn says. These goals have been achieved by adding a completely new frame and support arm concept of the mower-regrouping units. Like the FC 13460 RA, the FC 9330 RA is fitted with Kuhn’s Optidisc Elite cutter bar,
ISOBUS control interface and Lift-Control suspension. Kuhn’s expo also allowed the manufacturer to showcase its existing product range across the hay and forage, tillage, spraying, spreading, and feed mixing sectors. It also featured a silent auction of the demonstration machinery, with a portion of proceeds going to charity, plus a dealer dinner. The manufacturer’s full range can be viewed at www.kuhn.com.au

ONE PERSON, ONE TRACTOR JADAN COLLECTING & STACKING SOLUTIONS
Manufacturer Case IH has introduced a new round baler series which can produce larger bales than its predecessor model. The new RB6 HD Pro Series variable chamber round balers produce bales up to 165cm (the RB 456) or 190cm (RB 466) in diameter, depending on the model. Both sizes are larger than the bales produced by Case IH’s current RB5 Series models and both are available as either a rotor feed or a 25-knife rotor cut version. “As well as larger bales, the RB6 HD Pro Series has been designed for high frequency use, offering increased durability and heavier components to suit those customers who produce a high annual bale count like contractors and larger hay producers,” Case IH product specialist Andrew Wood says. “It’s actually about a tonne heavier than its current RB5 series sibling and is basically a completely new baler.” One new feature is the driveline, described as having been redesigned “from the ground up” and offering a heavy-duty T type gearbox that delivers power to both sides of the baler, reducing complexity and transmitting power more evenly for better balance and smoother operation.

A larger 520mm rotor also helps increase the baler’s overall capacity. “The four belts used by the RB6 HD Pro series balers are deflected only 10 times as they rotate through the machine, reducing belt stress and increasing their service life, with most of the bale weight carried
on the floor roller to aid in extending the life of the belts,” Wood said. Another new feature is the active drop floor which automatically moves to allow heavy crop flow to pass and avoid plugging. The RB6 HD Pro Series only requires

two sets of hydraulic remotes on the tractor due to a new hydraulic valve bank on the baler, with hydraulic function selections chosen through the display. A reduced number of components plus a new belt path and roller configuration help to minimise maintenance and create a compact core-forming chamber, ensuring tight bale core formation is achieved quickly. The rollers are larger, as well as bearings, chains and sprockets, for added durability, while the five-bar pick-up has been revised from the current RB5 Series. The revision means a change to the pick-up mount, increasing the forward angle to allow for an even smoother crop flow as it transitions between the pick-up and the rotor.
