Applications:
This spring tine fits Krone’s reliable baler lineup including Fortima V1500, V1800, F1250, F1600 models and Comprima F155 balers commonly used for hay and forage operations where pickup efficiency directly impacts profitability. Whether you’re baling first-cutting alfalfa where every stem counts toward feed quality, putting up grass hay where clean pickup prevents waste, or handling custom baling where your reputation depends on doing quality work, having properly functioning pickup tines ensures your baler gathers forage cleanly without leaving valuable crop behind. Krone balers are known for their pickup efficiency and bale quality, making proper tine maintenance essential for getting the performance these machines are capable of delivering.
Quality and Technical Benefits:
Hay baling puts pickup tines through punishment that would destroy inferior components – constant flexing as they sweep through windrows, impacts from rocks and debris hidden in hay, and the demanding duty cycles that come with trying to get hay baled during narrow weather windows. This genuine Krone tine uses quality spring steel that provides the right combination of flexibility and strength, picking up hay efficiently while resisting the breakage that can occur with inferior replacement parts. The precision-formed profile is designed specifically for optimal hay flow and pickup efficiency, ensuring your baler works at peak performance and doesn’t leave valuable forage scattered in the field where it represents lost income and wasted effort.
Installation and Compatibility Notes:
This tine fits multiple Krone baler models – check your parts manual or contact us with your specific model and serial number to confirm exact compatibility before ordering. Before installing new tines, inspect the pickup drum and related components for wear or damage that could affect the new tines’ performance. Replace damaged or excessively worn tines in groups rather than individually to maintain even pickup performance across the entire pickup width. Adjust pickup height and clearances according to manufacturer specifications after tine replacement to ensure optimal performance. Keep spare tines on hand during hay season, as broken tines always seem to happen at the worst possible moment when weather windows are short and getting hay baled quickly is critical for maintaining quality.
