Pick up-
McHale has developed various types of pickups. After extensive testing, McHale decided it would offer customers the choice of two pickup options depending on their conditions:

Cam pickup -
As standard, a cam operated 2.1m high-intake galvanised pickup ensures excellent ground cleaning in all types of crop. The cam pickup runs on a cam track that is fitted with double raced cam bearings to stand up to the most testing of conditions.
All pickups across the McHale variable chamber baler range are fitted with five tine bars for excellent delivery of crop to the bale chamber. The 2.1 metre galvanised pickup will lift even the shortest of crop. A side inspection port allows the operator to quickly check and change the cam bearings.

Camless pickup - Optional indent order only
A 2.1m camless pickup is available as an option on all machines in the variable chamber baler range. Six tine bars are fitted to all McHale camless pickups to provide excellent ground cleaning and fast delivery of crop to the chamber. The new camless pickup has been designed for increased output and, with that in mind, the cam-track free pickup is more reliable, consists of less moving parts and is maintenance free.

All McHale pickups come with a number of standard features that include:

Heavy Duty Pickup -

All McHale pickups feature heavy-duty tine bar supports to ensure long service life. A vital part of the pickup is the tine; McHale has developed a pickup tine designed to lift even the shortest of crop.

Efficient Crop Flow Delivery -

The specially designed McHale pickup is positioned close to the rotor to improve delivery of the crop through the rotor to the bale chamber. Large diameter lateral feed augers help direct crop to the bale chamber, ensuring a consistent and even crop flow for producing high density bales.

Adaptive Intake -

Over the course of a baling season, machines have to work with different volumes of crop. McHale has designed an adaptive intake which allows the intake area to automatically adjust for light and heavy crops. This avoids peak loads and results in higher daily throughput regardless of working conditions.

High Capacity Rotor -

The feed rotor or chopping unit boasts a heavy-duty rotor and comb.
The flights are welded on both sides for superior strength and, on the drive side, the rotor is fitted with a double row bearing with a long service life.

The star-shaped feed rotors ensure a high capacity flow of grass into the bale chamber. The flights on the rotors are laid out in a spiral formation to achieve consistent crop flow.
As crop enters the rotor, rotating flights feed the crop to the bale chamber. The flights on the rotor ensure high output, while the star layout reduces the load peaks as the machines work in heavy swaths.

Drop Floor
All balers in the variable chamber baler range are fitted with the McHale drop floor unblocking system, a feature which operators have come to love for its simplicity of use and effective unblocking cycle. As baling conditions are not always ideal, uneven swaths can occur which can lead to blockages. The drop floor unblocking system means blockages can be fed through in three simple steps:

Drop the Floor -
Should a blockage occur, the sound of the slip clutch alerts the operator, who can hydraulically lower the floor from the tractor cab.
Re-engage the PTO

This widens the feed channel and, on re-engaging the PTO, the blockage can be fed through.
Reset the Floor

The floor can then be reset to its original position and baling can resume.

Bale Sizes -
The V8950 can produce bales from 0.60m to 1.90m
