Plate-type fasteners

All of the 0 Series Balers use the plate-type fasteners.

This closed-loop design uses a plate fastener with pre-assembled rivets that lock the fasteners into the belt, providing a powerful vice-type grip on the belt.

• The plates and rivets are manufactured from high-tensile stainless steel.
• Strong belt splices mean less maintenance and more productivity.
• The loop area is cold forged, making it extremely wear resistant in the coupling area, resulting in a very long cycle life.
• The spring steel pin is notched and locks into the splice connection without having to bend the pin or use external retainers.

Large, extra-durable, one-piece cargo box ensures hard-driving performance and longevity
The cargo box consists of a high-density polyethylene copolymer composite material that eliminates rust, dents, and reduces noise. This large, one-piece design has rounded inside corners to ensure material removal when tilted. The composite box is highly ribbed and supported with a welded, steel-ladder structure to ensure hard-driving performance and longevity. The three highly-styled exterior pieces are made of TPO for extra durability.

To complement the comfortable operation station, the XUV560 and XUV590 Series are equipped with four-wheel independent suspension. This unique suspension set-up provides an unparalleled ride over challenging terrain and excellent handling through corners.

The engineering team, in collaboration with engineering firms that consult with Formula 1®, NASCAR®, and INDYCAR® teams, built a capable suspension system for class-leading operator comfort no matter what the terrain.

Dual A-arm front suspension features include:

• Dual, wide arch A-arm design provides maximum front-wheel control, precise steering, and maximum ground clearance out to the wheel
• 203 mm (8 in.) of travel provides ample compression and wheel extension, which keep all four wheels on the ground for superior traction and vehicle control
• Adjustable coil-over shocks absorb the most demanding terrain
• Solid anti-roll bar with fully rubber isolated connecting links and pivots is tuned to provide the most agile and predictable handling
• Camber during compression to compensate for body roll and to maintain an optimal tire contact patch for improved cornering grip
• Increasing vehicle width during compression for additional stability.
• High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle and upper A-arm to support the high stresses of the shocks, constant-velocity (CV) shaft, and wheels
• Automotive-style, fully boxed and welded, high-strength steel, lower A-arms to minimize unsprung mass and maximize strength
• Maintenance-free, rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation
• CV shaft protection from sticks that may puncture the rubber boot
• Anti-dive front suspension geometry provides a solid platform for confident braking
• Optimized steering geometry using ADAMS CAR simulation to minimize steering effort and maximize terrain feedback

Independent rear suspension features include:

• 203 mm (8 in.) of travel provides ample compression and wheel extension, which keep all four wheels on the ground for superior traction and vehicle control
• Unique, independent rear-suspension design ensures a great ride and protection for the CV shafts
• Adjustable coil-over shocks absorb the most demanding terrain
• Camber during compression to compensate for body roll and to maintain an optimal tire contact patch for improved cornering grip
• Increasing vehicle width during compression for additional stability.
• High-strength ASTM 80-55-06 ductile cast-iron knuckle, lower A-arm, and upper link to support the high stresses of the shocks, CV shaft, and wheels with the toughness to survive impacts from boulders
• Maintenance-free rubber torsional A-arm pivots for long life and quiet operation

Optional Fox™ Shocks are available to factory install

Exclusive aluminum-body, high-pressure monotube FOX racing shocks

• Fully adjustable spring preload for different driving styles
• High-pressure nitrogen gas is separated from the damping oil by an internal floating piston (IFP). The separation prevents aeration (frothing) and viscosity degradation of the oil which improves damping consistency and performance fade.
• Pressure and heat generation in the monotube is less than a traditional twin-tube shock, allowing for better vehicle control in aggressive conditions.
• The single aluminum shell of the monotube design allows for more efficient heat rejection and lower overall unsprung mass.
• Mounting the shaft end of the shock to the suspension arm lowers the unsprung mass of the suspension system, leading to improved suspension response.
