Information

2024 Haybuster® Balebuster 2800

The 2800 Balebuster from Haybuster is the largest and heaviest processor in the line-up.

If you have BIG square bales that need to get processed, this is the machine for you. It also processes round bales making it a very versatile processor.

Bales are loaded with both forks and pincher arms to gently position bales in the chamber. This Balebuster has all the proven features we have trusted for years, such as conveyor table, right side discharge, and faster rotor speeds.

Features may include:

Heavy-Duty Fixed Shredder Chamber with 3 Chain Slat Conveyor

Combining these features with the heavy-duty flails and high-speed rotor, the 2800 Heavy-Duty Fixed Shredder Chamber will process bales in any condition: wet, frozen, old, new, or with flattened bottoms. The conveyor is slanted so it helps feed the hay/straw into the rotor.

Oil Bath Chain Case and High-Speed Rotor

The 2800 features an oil bath chain case with double 60-roller chain that reverses the direction of the PTO and increases the speed and efficiency of the rotor. The Heavy Duty 9’ x 26” Rotor with forty 3 lb. flails processes both dry hay and silage bales.

Rotor Access Door

The 2800 is equipped with rotor access doors, giving you quick and easy access to the rotor for routine inspections and twine removal.

Hydraulically Adjustable Slug Bars

The hydraulically adjustable slug bar allows the operator to adjust the length of the cut, even with a bale in the chamber.

9’ Bale Chamber

The 2800 is equipped with a 9’ bale chamber for processing all round and square bales.

Dual Action Loading Arms

The 2800 is equipped with Dual Action Loading Arms to allow for loading square and round bales into the bale chamber with equal ease.
