The Big Pack 1290 HDP II square baler from Krone has been updated by fitting the PowerClean knotter blower system as standard.

This is a knotter blower system fitted to the Generation 5. Two hydraulically driven, large-diameter fans blow air into the knotter area helping preventing clogging and premature wear. The fans also keep the sides of the baler clean and make servicing the press easier.

The V-knotter is also now standard on these balers. This is said to combine the high reliability of the Deering double knotter with the absence of twine residue found with the Cormick single knotter.
