The Claas Quadrant 5300 is a square baler manufactured by Claas, a leading European producer of harvesting and forage machinery. Square balers are designed to collect cut crop material, compress it into dense rectangular bales, and eject them ready for handling and storage. They are essential equipment in hay and straw production across arable and mixed farming operations.
This 2024 model is equipped with a comprehensive specification of features and systems. The machine features a tandem axle configuration with a pivot steer axle for manoeuvrability, and a hydraulically operated support foot suspension. Bale ejection is powered hydraulically, and the machine incorporates an automatic bale weighing device and bale counter for production monitoring. A humidity sensor is fitted to monitor crop moisture content during operation.
The feeding system uses an automatic auger with a roller crop press and roller retainers to manage material intake. Bale formation employs a roller slide mechanism within a quadratic bale press chamber. Twine tying is the binding method, supported by an automatic chain lubrication system and a knot-cleaning fan to ensure reliable knot quality. The knife group switching is positioned at the top of the machine.
Power transmission is via a 1¾ inch PTO shaft with a gearbox input speed of 1000 rpm, driven by a coarse-toothed cardan shaft. Hydraulic systems include a swing-out hydraulic brake with flywheel function on the transmission. The compressed air braking system is fitted for safe towed operation. Steering is controlled via a hydraulically actuated sensing wheel axle.
The machine is equipped with an electronic control system and camera system for operator visibility and process monitoring. Additional features include a document case, maintenance tool kit and complete tool set. The machine is located in Germany and is offered in used condition.
