Vermeer ZR-5N G2 Self-propelled Baler

More bales, less time

When conditions are right, the ZR‑5N is ready to move. That’s why it’s made for speeds of up to 12 mph (19.3 km/hr) in the field based on ground conditions, and up to 33 mph (53 km/hr) when in transport mode.

Maximize capacity and feeding consistency with a cammed pickup that actively controls crop flow for smoother intake and reliable performance in heavy or variable crop conditions.

Getting turned around at the end of a windrow shouldn’t cost you time. With zero‑turn capability and independent rear wheel control, the ZR‑5N makes tight turns easy.

Long days done better

Experience increased visibility of what’s in front and behind you with large windows and cameras on the pickup and tailgate.

Rough ground doesn’t have to mean a rough ride. The patented cab‑over suspension helps smooth out uneven field conditions, making the ride more comfortable and controlled so long days feel easier on your body.

This is where long days get easier. The ZR‑5N cab is designed around the operator, with intuitive controls and comfort features that help reduce fatigue and keep you productive all day long.

Ready when you are

Problems are easier to manage when you see them coming. TempSense™ monitors bearing temperatures in real time, helping you stay ahead of potential issues and plan maintenance proactively.

Carry what you need into the field. Extra storage in the optional toolbox helps keep supplies close, so you don’t have to head back early.

Cleanup and service are easier by design. The detachable bale chamber gives you better access for maintenance, helping reduce downtime at the end of the day.

Smart features and automation

Everything you need is right in the cab. The control system puts real‑time machine data and adjustments at your fingertips, so you can fine‑tune performance without stepping outside.

Let the machine handle the routine so you can focus ahead. Integrated automation manages stopping, tying and ejecting, reducing operator input and helping keep the baling cycle consistent and efficient.

Save time when picking up bales later. Quarter‑turn automation places bales parallel to the windrow, helping streamline collection and field organization.
