2 Perfect bales, every time MF 160 Series variable chamber round balers deliver consistent, even density bales, time after time. Engineered to a high specification and built to give many years of service, they are the balers of choice for demanding professional farmers and contractors everywhere. MF 160 Baler model range Model Diameter Pick-up Feeding Binding High-density bales from the MF 167 VS. Rapid, straightforward baling. The Alpha Bale Monitor for precision baling. MF 167 VF m 2.00 m Double rake Net & twine MF 167 V m 2.20 m Rotor Net & twine MF 167 VS m 2.20 m Cutter Net MF 169 V m 2.20 m Rotor Net & twine MF 169 VS m 2.20 m Cutter Net The wide range of configurations allow the operator to select precisely the right bale size for individual transport and storage facilities whatever the crop. Five models the choice is yours These variable chamber balers use a combination of rollers and belts to produce bales of up to 2.0m in diameter. A range of high specification options include a double rake feeder, rotor feeder or Supercut for enhanced performance in all crop types, ensuring that they will appeal to a broad spectrum from mixed farmers to large contractors. MF 160 Series balers are very simple to operate, with all functions controlled from the incab Alpha bale monitor or Light bale monitor the latest technology designed to take the stress away from harvest-time. The Self-Cleaning Roller System works particularly well in silage, eliminating the need for a special silage kit. Horsepower requirement is 80hp, with 540 PTO revs/min. There is one single-acting and one doubleacting spool valve requirement. With the MF 160 range of balers, baling your crop couldn t be more simple and stress-free. Technology at your fingertips On V and VS models the Alpha bale monitor puts the operator in complete control, providing the ability to make adjustments to all the important functions and displaying the most significant parameters. Bale size, density and shape, soft core adjustments, net and twine tying all are controlled from this simple-to-use interface. When the cutter is fitted, knife position can be set in, out or for cleaning or removal. In the event of a blockage, this can also be reversed without leaving the driver s seat. A constant indication of bale shape allows the operator to make minor adjustments to driving technique to ensure perfectly shaped bales every time, while bale count information enables the operator to maintain daily totals or tallies for individual customers.

3 Gentle, efficient pickup Pickup. Double rake feeder. A low-profile pick-up has been developed to handle the bulkiest swaths and feed them gently into the bales. The baffle plate with hexagonal roller boosts baler performance by coping with big swaths at high speeds, while the cam track is double-sided for long life and reliability. The pickup is also suspended, to enable ground contours to be followed. Up to 2.2m wide, the pickup has five rows of cranked tines to ensure fewer losses, even when operating at higher speeds or when baling a small crop. In addition, it allows a better crop in-take and a smooth, even flow from pickup to rotor. (V and VS models)

4 MF 160 Series variable chamber capability at its best MF 160 balers feature five rigid, wide profile belts, designed to provide the best contact on the bale while it s in the chamber, ensuring smooth rotation with minimum crop loss, even in dry conditions. The belt surface is specially designed to turn the bale gently, with minimal slippage on the drive rollers. In addition to the belts, three rollers maintain constant contact with the bale, helping to support its weight and to ensure quick turning of the bale and faster bale starting. The patented roller/scraper system minimises downtime in difficult conditions. Feeder and Cutter options Depending on the model, there is either a double rake feeder or a rotary feeder (V-form), while the cutter unit is specified with a Supercut 14-knife option with a cab-operated, electro-hydraulic reverser to help clear blockages quickly and easily. Triple-density bales The same bale can be formed with three different densities, selected by the operator in the cab. The ability to adjust bale density within the same bale give total control of operations, allowing selection of the best densities for fodder preservation, for example, or maximising bale weight when baling straw. Well-designed press chamber A combination of rollers and belts, together with a small chamber at the bale start, ensures an efficient bale start with every crop and in every condition. Excellent bale quality is also assured when using the in-cab soft core adjustment control. Two hydraulic cylinders, working in tandem with the rollers and belts, are capable of achieving one of the highest bale densities of any baler on the market. The Self-Cleaning Roller System (SCRS) maintains the baler operating at optimum performance in all crop types, including short cut silage (no special silage kit required). The belts are always kept clean, making for easy, safe running. Bale density Bale density is set by the Alpha bale monitor situated within the cab; it really is that simple. You choose the depth and consistency of bale, allowing you to switch between hay, straw and silage and ultimately optimising crop preservation or maximum bale density and weight, depending on the job in hand : Variable chamber MF 167V/MF 169V bale formation: The linear crop flow ensures smooth, consistent feed into the bale chamber, promoting high output. 04 Bale density. 05 Self cleaning rollers. 06 The 14-knife Supercut pre-cutter features a simple, yet effective, protection system to avoid damage when objects are picked up in the cutter

5 Top quality features you can t be without Not all decisions in life are difficult but it s worth making the right ones. The MF 160 V is your investment; get the most from it with time saving features and outstanding optional extras. Make top quality, secure bales with net wrap......or use fast and efficient twine binding. Part of th package; MF s range of tractors, loaders and baling. equipment. 04 Baffle plate with hexagonal roller. Twine or net wrap? MF 160 Series balers offer the choice of net wrap, twine tie or the flexibility of both systems. The net intake is 1.3m wide allowing the use of extra wide net, and the positive feed of the net wrap ensures coverage to the edge of the bale every time. Net storage locations are easily accessible at the front of the baler, and a spare roll of net can be stored above the one being used. The fast and efficient twine binding system is designed in such a way as to allow use with more economical twine. It binds at the edges of the bale, crossing in the middle at the end of the cycle. Being situated at the front of the baler, both systems are simple to control without the operator having to leave the cab. Changing from net to twine is effected by simply touching a button on the monitor.

6 The MF 167V Farmer large round baler Simple-to-use, highly efficient and with plenty of capacity, the Farmer variable chamber baler is excellent value for money and perfect for those who use their baler infrequently and for light hay and straw work. Double rake feeder. MF 167 V Farmer Variable chamber. Perfect control and flexibility with the MF 167 V Farmer baler. You need a highly efficient yet simple-to-use machine with low running costs and maximum throughput. When time is everything, we guarantee you ll get it right first time with a Massey Ferguson V Farmer trust the Farmer to get the job done. This model differs slightly in specification from the others in the range. The feeding augers and double rake feeder are integrated into the pick-up, for example. Double rake feeder The double rake feeder is unique to the MF 167 V Farmer model. The two rows of tines, mounted on bearings, penetrate the crop for positive movement into the chamber. Belts The path of the bale forming belts in the MF 167 Farmer is different to the standard machine and an alternative belt tensioner configuration is used. This design provides a larger pre-chamber size for easier bale starting and also maintains the stability of the belts during the initial stages of bale formation. The belts have a slightly longer length; however, the number of belts remains the same at five. Belt tension is provided by a single hydraulic cylinder and tension spring. Netwrap and twine The net is fed into the bale chamber via a rotating arm operated by an electric motor and is controlled by the bale monitor. The system is controlled by the bale monitor and provides five alternative arm speeds for applying varying quantities of twine. Variable chamber The variable chamber on the MF 167 VF has long belts and the linear crop flow ensures smooth, consistent feed into the bale chamber promoting high output. The design of the double rake feeder ensures constant flow of crop, less vibration, lower power consumption all without loss of performance. The MF 167 VF is perfect for delicate or valuable crops where the leaves need to be protected. The monitor also controls the number of wraps of net applied to the bale. This efficient unit binds the bale together, keeping a perfect shape for easy transportation. A double twine unit is fitted utilising a pair of oscillating arms operated by an electric motor
