FOR THOSE THAT DEMAND THE PERFECT BALE
"Make hay when the sun shines" are words to live by. You don't have time to continually make adjustments to your baler throughout the short amount of time you have to bale within. SimplEbale improves efficiency, increases uptime, and enables the operator to make those perfect looking bales.
OVERVIEW
SimplEbale makes baling easier for even the most experienced operator. The new Ag Co-Pilot monitor gives the operator the information they need to make that perfect bale at the push of a button.
Efficiency
Information such as flake width, flake count, and bale length provide the operator the data they need to adjust their baling speed to be the most efficient.
Bale Formation
The combination of the optional bale scale and hydraulic density control, enable the operator to set a target bale weight that the baler automatically adjusts to achieve.
Uptime
The electronic auto lubrication system provides the ability to lubricate the baler knotters without having to stop and manually perform this task. In addition, this feature gives the capability to adjust the amount of lubrication and how frequently the knotters are lubricated.

FAQs
- What small square baler models can SimplEbale be installed on?
- Currently, SimplEbale can be installed on Massey Ferguson 1840 & 1844S small square balers. SimplEbale kits for Massey Ferguson 1842S balers will be available in the future.
- Does the bale scale need to be installed for the automatic bale weight control to work?
- Yes. The bale scale from AGCO is required for the system to operate in automatic weight mode.
- Does SimplEbale work with ISOBUS?
- No. SimplEbale is a stand-alone system.
- Do the SimplEbale kits include a moisture sensor?
- No. SimplEbale kits do not include a moisture sensor in the kit. SimplEbale is compatible with 3rd party moisture sensors and can be directly connected to the SimplEbale electrical harness.
- What are the electrical power requirements for SimplEbale?
- The SimpleBale system utilizes 12 volt battery power from the tractor the baler is connected to. The baler's knotter fan and lights consume significant power that could exceed 30 Amps. Depending on the tractor being used, the cab power ports may not be an adequate power source. In this event, a switched power harness, AGCO part number 700736809, can be used which connects directly to the the tractor battery.
