9JYY-2.5 Round Bale Picker and Transporter | 2,500kg Capacity

9JYY-2.5 Round Bale Picker & Transporter — Hydraulic Self-Loading Bale Wagon for Farms Up to 2,500 kg Capacity

Product Overview: 9JYY-2.5 Round Bale Picker and Transporter

The 9JYY-2.5 Round Bale Picker and Transporter is a tow-type, hydraulically operated round bale picker and transporter built for farms that need to move multiple bales per run without additional labour. Model designation 9JYY-2.5 corresponds to a rated bale diameter of up to 1,300 mm and bale lengths from 1,000 mm to 1,500 mm — the output range of most mainstream round balers in commercial hay operations.

Coupled to any tractor producing ≥20 kW (27 hp) at the PTO, the wagon picks up, loads, and transports bales at field speeds up to 40 km/h. Maximum payload is 2,500 kg. The hydraulic loading arm operates at a minimum system pressure of 16 MPa, drawing from the tractor’s existing remote hydraulic circuit — no separate pump or power unit is required. The complete machine weighs 1,165 kg and measures 10,300 × 2,420 × 2,485 mm (L × W × H), fitting standard farm road widths without a wide-load permit.

As purpose-built round bale handling equipment, the 9JYY-2.5 eliminates the tractor-per-bale movement pattern that consumes fuel and operator hours during hay season. One operator, one tractor, one pass — field to storage.

Advanced Hydraulic Bale Handling and Transport Performance

The 9JYY-2.5’s loading system uses the tractor’s existing hydraulic remote output — no separate engine, no auxiliary pump. At a working pressure threshold of 16 MPa, the arm delivers consistent clamping and lifting force regardless of bale moisture content or weight variation across the 1,000–1,500 mm length range. The hydraulic circuit is protected by an internal relief valve, preventing overload on the arm pivot and frame welds under peak load conditions.

How Our Automatic Bale Loader Enhances Farm Productivity

Conventional bale collection typically requires one tractor and loader per bale movement — or a crew of workers if loading is done by hand. On a 100-acre hay field producing 80–100 bales per cut, that translates to 80–100 individual tractor movements. The 9JYY-2.5 Round Bale Picker and Transporter changes the arithmetic:

• Single-operator collection: The hydraulic self-loading arm picks each bale from the ground without the operator leaving the cab. One person handles the full pick-up and transit cycle.
• Reduced fuel consumption per tonne moved: Transporting 2,500 kg of baled material per pass versus one bale at a time (typically 400–600 kg each) reduces tractor field distance and fuel burn per tonne hauled by an estimated 60–70%.
• Compatible with existing equipment: Tow-type hitch attaches to standard drawbars. No loader attachment or front-end modification needed. The tractor’s remote hydraulic outlet (≥16 MPa) supplies the loading arm — standard on virtually all modern utility tractors.
• Reduced field compaction: Fewer passes across the field — particularly during wet post-cut conditions — means less soil compaction from repeated tractor traffic, protecting the root system for the next cut.
• Off-season versatility: When not handling round bales, the wagon chassis remains available as a flatbed trailer within its 2,500 kg rating — common practice in mixed livestock/arable operations.

As a purpose-designed agricultural bale collector, the 9JYY-2.5 is most commonly deployed on beef cattle and dairy operations where hay and silage bale volumes are high, and on contractor fleets that service multiple farm clients per season. The 10,300 mm overall length keeps the unit road-legal in most markets without special permits.
