Fuss-free baling with
the MF 1839 baler
The MF 1839 baler is based, uniquely, on a 'centre-line' design in
which the crop flows through the baler in a straight line. No-fuss,
no time wasted, just perfectly formed bales everytime.
Easy on the road, easy in
the field
You'll notice the first advantage
before reaching the field. Even
though the MF 1839 features a
wide pickup, transport width is
exceptionally narrow because
of the in-line design allowing
easy access to narrow lanes and
awkward gateways. And when
you get to the field, there is no
need to manhandle the baler from
a 'transport' position to a 'work'
position – you just lower the
pickup and start baling.
Wide, centre-mounted pickup
The 1.9 metre wide pickup
features a small diameter, 'low-
profile' design with closely spaced
tines ensuring that windrows are
picked up cleanly with minimal
disturbance and leaf loss. Gauge
wheels, fitted as standard, further
help the pickup to follow uneven
ground contours, avoiding pickup
tine damage. The MF 1839 has
a four tine bar pickup for higher
throughput.
As soon as the crop enters the
pickup, centring augers move
the material into the centre of the
baler. This ensures equal material
distribution, improves crop feed
and prevents the bale from
becoming 'banana-shaped'.

Less work for the plunger
The crop is delivered into the pre-
compression chamber where the
flake is pre-formed before entering
the main chamber. This ensures a
well-shaped bale is formed
improving bale density and
reducing stress on components
giving improved baler durability.
Short stroke, high speed plunger
The pre-formed slice concept
enables the baler to operate with a
shorter plunger stroke, significantly
reducing plunger bearing wear
whilst generating a greater number
of bales.
Low-profile, wide pickup
High crop-flow rate
Even material distribution
Pre-formed flakes
High density bales
High capacity baling
Centre-line pull, ideal for
the attachment of rear
accumulators
Simplicity of use
Low maintenance
Built-in safety protection
(Slip and overrun clutches
and needle protection)
01 'Centre-line' design eliminates
side drafts and crop remains in a
