2 Perfectly coordinated forage harvesting from CLAAS.

3 For daily grassland-based operations, you need more than just robust machinery; you need technology that works and is quite simply a pleasure to work with reliable technology that works in unison when the going gets tough and when there seems to be no end in sight. And, what's more, you need harvesting systems that piece together seamlessly. As a leading equipment manufacturer of forage harvesting machinery, CLAAS provides the ideal harvesting chain for any farm or business size. Our coordinated machines support you in your day-to-day operations and enable you to achieve optimal results in forage harvesting. Milestones for the future. In 2013, CLAAS in Metz invested in state-of-the-art painting technology for its production facilities, seeking to implement the latest manufacturing standards of the automotive industry. The improved corrosion protection afforded by the CDP primer coat with subsequent top coat ensures excellent quality and a long service life. Thermal post-combustion, significantly reduced water consumption and low emissions values all help protect the environment. Contents.

4 The all-round hay and straw baler. The ROLLANT 260 is built for the long haul. Rugged drives, robust rollers plus ease of operation and servicing all contribute to the high work rates characteristic of this baler. You can wrap the bale with either twine or netting, giving you the opportunity to always pick the right wrapping for your valuable crop. Thorough field clearance. Even when the swaths are irregular or extra wide, the 1.80-metre clearing width leaves nothing on the field. The wide pick-up is equipped with lateral stub augers to channel the crop to the width of the baling chamber. The bale edges are extra-hard, and this keeps them in shape when they are stored. The dual pick-up tines are bolted onto sturdy U-shaped channels. 4

5 Flexible dual tines. They pick up the crop thoroughly and each pair of tines can be replaced individually, if needed. Each one is mounted on its own inside rugged U-section carrier. Always the right spacing. The standard height-adjustable castor guide wheels guide the pick-up tines over the ground contours. The crop is taken on board with no contamination. Dampers make sure that the pick-up doesn't lose contact even when travelling at high speeds over rough ground. The height is set hydraulically from the driver's seat. The pick-up is lowered hydraulically and returns to its preselected height. A feed rake behind the pick-up forces the crop into the baling chamber. Pick-up 5

6 Reliable power flow. All the rollers on the ROLLANT 260 are driven using 1 1/4" drive chains which take continuously high baling pressures in their stride. The rollers fitted in the tailgate are less heavily loaded, so the 1" chains used here are more than adequate. The correct chain tension is maintained using self-centring, spring-loaded chain tensioners. Always well lubricated. The drive chains are automatically lubricated. This feature, along with the automatic chain tensioning, cuts wear and tear to a minimum and reduces maintenance requirements. In addition, biodegradable oils can now be used for environmental protection. Constantly controlled oil flow for long chain life. 6

7 A proven design for highest work rates. Heavy-duty chains, automatically tensioned and lubricated for long-term dependability. Drive Lubrication 7

8 Sturdy design ensures firm bales. Rugged design is the prerequisite for dense bales. This is why the steel rollers in the ROLLANT baling chamber have large-diameter, double-welded stub shafts on each side and additional reinforcement plates inside the roller to provide the necessary rigidity in heavy-duty applications. Ease of operation. The tailgate is opened and closed from the driver s seat via a dual-acting control valve. A check valve prevents the tailgate from closing during inspection or servicing. An easy-to-read gauge indicates the pressure during the baling operation. 8

9 Time-saving. The bale ramp ensures that the bale always rolls back far enough to enable you to close the tailgate. There's no need to back up before discharging the bale which is good news for drivers and tractors alike. Powerful drive. The tractor's transmission is relieved of stress, thanks to the freewheeling wide-angle drive shaft. A shear bolt in the drive line protects the ROLLANT against damage due to overloading. Pick-up drive with overrun function. The pick-up features shear bolt overload protection to the stringent EU standard and a freewheel function. This provides effective protection for the baler and prevents tines from bending while reversing. Bale chamber Drive 9

10 Twine or net wrapping. This isn't an issue for the ROLLANT 260, since it can be equipped with either or both. Farm contractors often order both systems to be sure of always meeting the customer's requirements. There's no need to back up before wrapping and discharging the bale on the ROLLANT 260. The tailgate pulls the bale out of the chamber where it can roll back far enough for you to close the tailgate. Classic twine wrapping. You can choose between a manual and an automatic twine start. The automatic system starts the process when the final pressure is reached and the driver is then informed by a buzzer and warning lamp. It takes only around twenty seconds to wrap the bale with the dual twine wrapping system. 10

11 Twine or net wrapping the choice is yours. Modern net wrapping. The ROLLATEX net wrapping is designed to save time. The bale is wrapped in around ten seconds. The bale is wrapped very tight, stays in shape and is better protected from the weather. High tear strength. CLAAS ROLLATEX PRO net has a minimum tear strength of 270 kg to keep you on the safe side. Wrapping and tying 11

12 Another advantage the CLAAS STANDARD TERMINAL. Flexible reactions, comfortable operation. In the hectic forage harvesting period, every minute counts. So it s great if you have reliable technology to assist you. With the new CLAAS STANDARD TERMINAL, you can use one-touch buttons to control basic functions from the comfort of the driver's seat. Select whether you want to use netting or twine and set the automatic starting function individually. You also have the option of manually interrupting or activating the tying cycle, useful for instance when gathering the end of a swath. Even more: the CLAAS Medium Terminal. Frequent changes of driver and variations in field conditions are routine during harvesting periods. With the CLAAS Medium Terminal (CMT), you can programme the baler according to the prevailing harvesting conditions. Not only can you set the main functions offered by the CST, you'll also know exactly what's going on behind the tractor during the baling and tying cycle. Additionally, the terminal provides you with exact information about the number of bales made each day, the cumulative bale output and the total number of hours it took. A mechanical bale counter on the baler keeps you informed at all times about the machine's output. Four LEDs alert you to faults in the tying mechanism, enabling you to keep your ROLLANT running smoothly at all times. The new ISOBUS module means you are in full control of your baler. 12
