The combination of the Shift Fork Feeding Mechanism and the Screw Continuous Feeding Mechanism solves the core limitation of single-feed round balers: inconsistent bale density caused by variable windrow density. The wider 2,300 mm pickup further extends this advantage to combine-spread windrow widths that a 1,950 mm machine would need to lap twice.<\/p>\n<ol style=\"padding-left: 20px; color: #333; margin-bottom: 18px;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"><strong>2,300 mm Spring-Tooth Pickup:<\/strong> The wide spring-tooth reel lifts crop across the full 2,300 mm working width in a single pass \u2014 covering the broadest combine-spread windrows without a merging pass. Hardened spring-steel tines minimise leaf shatter and soil pickup across wheat straw, rice straw, alfalfa, and mixed forage crops.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"><strong>Dual Feeding System \u2014 Shift Fork + Screw Continuous:<\/strong> Lifted crop enters the shift fork zone, where positive displacement meters each crop charge into the feed transition at a controlled rate. The screw continuous feeder then maintains an uninterrupted, even-density material stream into the roll-drum chamber. Together, the two mechanisms smooth out the surge-and-gap flow pattern caused by windrow density variation, producing consistent bale core density regardless of field conditions.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"><strong>18-Roller Roll-Drum Compression:<\/strong> Inside the 1,250 mm wide, \u03a61,000 mm fixed-diameter chamber, 18 pressing rollers (\u03a6190 mm each) rotate to compact the growing bale simultaneously across its full width and circumference. Radial pressure from all 18 rollers increases progressively as the bale grows toward the preset diameter, producing a uniformly dense cylinder with consistent cross-section from core to outer ring.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"><strong>Automatic Net Wrapping:<\/strong> When the bale reaches the preset diameter, the automatic net-wrapping system engages without operator input, applies the required net loops, cuts cleanly, and signals completion. Both the net application and the cut-and-hold sequence are fully automated.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 9px;\"><strong>Hydraulic Bale Ejection:<\/strong> The rear tailgate opens hydraulically, the completed bale rolls out onto the field surface, and the tailgate closes automatically \u2014 the next bale formation cycle begins immediately with no lost time between bales.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"background: #f4faf7; border-radius: 6px; padding: 13px 18px; color: #1a5c2e; font-weight: 600; font-size: .95rem; margin: 0;\">\u2699 The 2,300 mm pickup combined with dual feeding gives the 9YQ-2300 the highest crop collection rate per field pass of any machine in the EP round baler range \u2014 without requiring the extreme 148\u2013201 hp power of the 9YG-2.2.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p><!-- ========== PTO SHAFT MODULE ========== --><\/p>\n<section id=\"pto-shaft-module\" style=\"margin-bottom: 40px; background: #fffdf0; border: 1px solid #e2d88a; border-radius: 8px; padding: 22px 20px;\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size: clamp(1.2rem,3vw,1.6rem); font-weight: bold; color: #7a5c00; margin-bottom: 10px;\">\ud83d\udd29 PTO Shaft \u2014 Selecting the Right Driveline for the 9YQ-2300<\/h2>\n<figure style=\"margin: 0 0 16px; text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; max-width: 760px; height: auto; border-radius: 6px; display: inline-block;\" src=\"https:\/\/balershay.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/baler-connected-to-PTO-shaft.webp\" alt=\"Round baler connected to tractor via PTO shaft \u2014 high-torque driveline connection for the EP-9YQ-2300 wide-pickup round baler\" \/><figcaption style=\"font-size: .84rem; color: #777; margin-top: 7px;\">The PTO shaft must handle the combined continuous torque of the 2,300 mm pickup reel, dual feeding system, and 18-roller compression chamber<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 13px;\">The 9YQ-2300 draws 58.8\u2013132.5 kW through the PTO to simultaneously drive the 2,300 mm pickup reel, dual feeding mechanism, 18-roller compression chamber, net-wrapping system, and hydraulic tailgate circuit.

This eliminates the need for a separate windrow merging pass on wide-spread fields, saving one full field operation per crop cycle and reducing soil compaction from additional tractor passes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff; border: 1px solid #c8e6c9; border-radius: 8px; padding: 18px 16px; box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(0,0,0,.06);\">\n<div style=\"font-size: 2rem; margin-bottom: 8px;\">\u26a1<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 8px;\">Dual Feeding \u2014 Consistent Density on Variable Windrows<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: .92rem; color: #444; margin: 0;\">The combined Shift Fork and Screw Continuous Feeding Mechanism delivers a steady, even-density crop stream into the compression chamber across the full range of windrow densities encountered in a single field pass. This eliminates the low-density bale cores produced by single-feed machines on uneven or combine-spread windrows at wide working widths.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff; border: 1px solid #c8e6c9; border-radius: 8px; padding: 18px 16px; box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(0,0,0,.06);\">\n<div style=\"font-size: 2rem; margin-bottom: 8px;\">\ud83d\udd27<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 8px;\">79\u2013178 hp \u2014 Commercial Power Without Extremes<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: .92rem; color: #444; margin: 0;\">The 58.8\u2013132.5 kW (79\u2013178 hp) power range targets the most common large-farm tractor bracket globally \u2014 100\u2013150 hp machines \u2014 without requiring the extreme 148\u2013201 hp of the 9YG-2.2. Most modern 4WD utility tractors fall squarely within this range, making the 9YQ-2300 a straightforward machine addition for farms already operating these tractors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff; border: 1px solid #c8e6c9; border-radius: 8px; padding: 18px 16px; box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(0,0,0,.06);\">\n<div style=\"font-size: 2rem; margin-bottom: 8px;\">\ud83d\udcc8<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 8px;\">18-Roller Chamber \u2014 Uniform 1,000 mm Bales<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: .92rem; color: #444; margin: 0;\">The 18-roller (\u03a6190 mm) fixed-drum chamber applies simultaneous radial compression across the full 1,250 mm bale width, producing consistently shaped, uniformly dense 1,000 mm diameter bales. The 1,000 mm bale format is lighter and easier to handle than the 1,220 mm format of the 9YG-2.2, requiring smaller loading equipment and reducing handling risk at outdoor storage sites.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff; border: 1px solid #c8e6c9; border-radius: 8px; padding: 18px 16px; box-shadow: 0 2px 6px rgba(0,0,0,.06);\">\n<div style=\"font-size: 2rem; margin-bottom: 8px;\">\ud83d\udd17<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 8px;\">Fully Automatic Net Wrapping<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: .92rem; color: #444; margin: 0;\">Net application, cutting, and tailgate ejection are fully automated \u2014 the operator stays in the cab from field entry to exit.

The frame is engineered for the higher lateral bending moment imposed by the wider pickup width at field operating speeds. Multi-pass shot-blasting (Sa 2.5) plus epoxy primer and polyurethane topcoat provides long-term corrosion resistance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 13px;\"><strong>2,300 mm Spring-Tooth Pickup Reel:<\/strong> Hardened 65Mn spring-steel tines (44\u201348 HRC) across the full 2,300 mm width. Tine spacing is optimised to lift both fine-stemmed and coarse crop types cleanly, and the cam-follower tine-retraction system delivers clean crop transfer into the dual feeding zone without wrapping or bunching at the wide outer tine rows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 13px;\"><strong>Dual Feeding System:<\/strong> The Shift Fork mechanism is fabricated from hardened structural steel with a reciprocating timing system coordinated in phase with the screw feeder. The Screw Continuous Feeder uses a hardened wear-resistant spiral flight profile matched to the feed inlet geometry, preventing material bridging across the full 2,300 mm pickup width. Both components are designed for field-side adjustment without specialist tooling.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 13px;\"><strong>18-Roller Compression Chamber:<\/strong> Fixed-drum 1,250 mm wide, \u03a61,000 mm diameter chamber with 18 pressing rollers (\u03a6190 mm). All roller shafts run in heavy-duty sealed bearings. Roller surfaces are hardened and precision-ground. The smaller \u03a6190 mm roller diameter provides higher contact density per unit of bale circumference compared with belt-chamber designs, producing tighter, more stable bale surfaces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\"><strong>Net Wrapping and Ejection:<\/strong> Motor-driven net-wrap mechanism with mechanical cut-and-hold for clean, consistent net termination on every bale. Hydraulic tailgate opens and closes automatically at cycle end.

FAQ ========== --><\/p>\n<section id=\"faq\" style=\"margin-bottom: 44px;\">\n<h2 style=\"font-size: clamp(1.3rem,3vw,1.7rem); font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; border-bottom: 2px solid #2e9e5b; padding-bottom: 6px; margin-bottom: 20px;\">Frequently Asked Questions \u2014 EP-9YQ-2300 Round Baler<\/h2>\n<div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q1: Why does the 9YQ-2300 have a wider pickup than the larger 9YG-2.2?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">The 9YQ-2300 pickup (2,300 mm) exceeds the 9YG-2.2 pickup (2,200 mm) because the two machines are designed for different operational priorities. The 9YG-2.2 prioritises maximum bale volume per bale (1,220 mm diameter) and maximum compression chamber width (1,400 mm) at the cost of higher tractor power requirements (148\u2013201 hp). The 9YQ-2300 prioritises maximum field coverage per pass (2,300 mm pickup) and dual-feed density consistency, producing a 1,000 mm bale at a tractor power range (79\u2013178 hp) accessible to a much wider range of large-farm operators.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q2: What is the advantage of the dual feeding system on a 2,300 mm pickup?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">A wider pickup collects more crop volume per unit time \u2014 but it also delivers more variable crop density into the feeder, particularly on wide-spread combine windrows where the centre strip is denser than the edges. A single screw feeder on a 2,300 mm machine tends to produce surge-and-gap feeding that creates low-density bale cores on the wider windrows where volume spikes are highest. The Shift Fork mechanism in the 9YQ-2300 positively meters each crop charge into the screw feed zone at a controlled rate, eliminating these spikes and maintaining even density even when the pickup is lifting maximum volume on a dense central windrow strip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q3: Does the 9YQ-2300 require a road transport wide-load permit?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">At 2,750 mm transport width, the 9YQ-2300 falls below the 3,000 mm wide-load permit threshold in all major markets globally. Road transport without special permits is straightforward in the EU, UK, Asia, Africa, and Middle East. The 2,750 mm width also passes through standard 3,000\u20133,500 mm farm gates without requiring gate removal \u2014 a practical daily advantage when moving between fields.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q4: What net-wrap types are compatible with the 9YQ-2300?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">The 9YQ-2300 net-wrapping system is compatible with standard round-baler net wrap rolls in widths matched to the 1,250 mm compression room width. UV-stabilised polyethylene net wrap in 64\u201372 gsm is recommended for outdoor-stored dry crop bales. For silage pre-wrap applications, lighter 50\u201364 gsm net reduces tenting and improves subsequent stretch-film adhesion. Contact our technical team for roll core diameter and carrier specifications before ordering net wrap for first use on this machine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q5: How does the 9YQ-2300 perform on rice straw in paddy fields?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">The 9YQ-2300 is suitable for paddy-field straw recovery on flat, drained ground that can support tractor traffic. The 2,300 mm pickup covers the wide windrows typical of paddy fields harvested with large combines in a single pass. At 2,500 kg machine weight it is lighter than the 9YG-2.2 (3,800 kg), reducing soil compaction risk on recently drained paddy soils. The dual feeding system handles the tangled, damp character of post-harvest rice straw without the surge feeding that causes inconsistent bale density on this crop in single-feed machines.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 14px 0;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 1rem; font-weight: bold; color: #1a5c2e; margin: 0 0 7px;\">Q6: What warranty and spare-parts support is included?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p style=\"color: #444; margin: 0; font-size: .93rem;\">The EP-9YQ-2300 carries a 24-month manufacturer warranty on the main frame and gearbox assembly, and a 12-month warranty on the dual feeding system, roller assemblies, net-wrapping mechanism, and wear parts. Support is provided directly by our factory engineering team with no dealer intermediary. Fast-wear parts including pickup tines, net-wrap knife, roller bearings, chain sets, and screw feeder wear components are held in export stock and dispatched globally within 48 hours of order confirmation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p><!-- ========== 10.
