2026 Bale Baron® Pickup Model 4250P

2026 Marcrest 4250P

The tractor assisted Bale Baron 4250P in-field pick up model has become a flagship product for Marcrest. Pick-up models are well suited for larger acreages and will keep up to 2-3 balers. With the choice of 3 power options, tow behind Bale Barons can operate with any 100+ hp tractor.

Features may include:

The Bale Baron 4250 Series is now fully ISOBUS compatible, giving the operator full control and visibility over the bundling process, right from the cab. Watch each bundle build as every bale is tracked and counted - both in auto and manual modes - for accuracy every time. The Bale Baron will work with and without ISOBUS. The Bale Baron will also work without ISOBUS using the standard in-cab control.

To improve reliability and to help make servicing a Bale Baron easier, all pivot points now use greaseless and nitride treated pins as well as composite bushings

To increase production on all in-field pickup models, the front bale pickup is now lower to the ground. We’ve also increased the length of the vertical rollers for more surface engagement. This means more grip for picking up bales.

To improve the stability of the Bale Baron, the wheel base has been widened.

Storage for 16 balls of twine means you can bundle more than 5000 small square bales before needing to refill the cabinets. Plastic twine is one of the most efficient binding options available. Plastic twine is easy to buy, cost effective and user friendly for producer and end user.

The Bale Baron uses the proven low maintenance Rasspe knotter for reliability and easy serviceability. Sealed knotter components keep dirt out and grease in, requiring grease only once a year. Missed ties have an audible alarm.

Once tied, each bundle exits the Bale Baron down the roller ramp and gently onto the ground. The roller ramp is equipped with a compression spring to assist the operator when pinning up the ramp. Add a roller chute extension for stationary baling.

The aggressive traction of the Bale Barons perforated turn-table grabs the bales as they exit the baler giving excellent side hill performance.

Two dual heavy-duty front caster wheels for increased stability and flotation. Hollow rubber block suspension on casters for smooth trailing.

The Smart/Solve system runs using a PLC that constantly monitors and warns the operator when needed. Smart/Solve provides user friendly command and alarm messages for the operator.

In Europe, all 4250 and 5250 models come standard with your choice of air or hydraulic brakes. A manual parking brake is also included.
