Description :

Available in Pembroke, Kentucky, this New Holland BC5070 baler for sale is a small square hay baler equipped with a seller-reported 35 HP Vanguard gas engine power unit, giving it an independently powered configuration that may be particularly attractive to Plain-community farms and other operations using alternative equipment-power arrangements. Originally offered at $22,500, then reduced to $21,500, this baler has now been dramatically reduced to $18,500 because of an unexpected family emergency. The seller needs to turn this equipment into cash and remains open to a reasonable offer.

This is not simply a routine seasonal price reduction. According to the seller, an unexpected medical emergency involving his youngest son has placed significant financial strain on the family. His son required emergency surgery after developing a serious intestinal complication. Fortunately, the family was already at the hospital for another child’s surgery when the emergency occurred, allowing him to receive immediate medical attention.

The seller reports that the resulting expenses have exhausted much of the family’s available savings. Because of that situation, he has made the difficult decision to reduce the baler to $18,500 and is prepared to consider additional reasonable offers in order to get it sold.

Buyers who have been considering an engine-powered New Holland small square baler are encouraged to take a serious look at this opportunity.

Major Price Reduction — Now $18,500

The asking price has now been lowered substantially:

• Original asking price: $22,500
• First reduction: $21,500
• Current asking price: $18,500
• Total advertised reduction: $4,000
• Seller reports that accepting the current price represents a substantial financial loss for him
• Reasonable offers are still being considered
• Seller is motivated by an immediate family financial need

This is a legitimate reason for selling rather than manufactured advertising urgency. The seller has made it clear that he needs to move the baler and is willing to discuss an offer with a serious buyer.

35 HP Vanguard Independent Gas Power Unit

The feature that most clearly separates this BC5070 from a conventional small-square-baler setup is the seller-reported 35 HP Vanguard gas engine power unit installed with the machine.

Instead of depending solely on a tractor PTO for its operating power, this particular baler has been configured with an independent engine and associated power-transfer system.

That type of arrangement may be valuable for operations such as:

• Plain-community farms
• Amish farming operations
• Farms using horses for equipment transport
• Operations using alternative power arrangements
• Specialty hay producers
• Small-acreage hay operations
• Producers wanting to keep tractors available for other haymaking jobs
• Operations specifically searching for an engine-powered square baler

The 35 HP rating refers to the installed Vanguard gas engine as reported by the seller. It should not be confused with New Holland's published tractor PTO requirements for a standard factory BC5070 configuration.

Because this is a specialized power arrangement, prospective buyers should inspect and verify the complete system, including the engine identification, clutch, reduction or drive components, mounting structure, controls, fuel system, starting system, guarding, and power-transfer arrangement.

New Holland BC5070 Small Square Baler

The BC5070 is part of New Holland's BC5000 Series of conventional small square balers.

Based on published New Holland specifications for the BC5070 platform, the baler uses a nominal 14-inch-by-18-inch bale chamber, a wide 75-inch pickup, a rotary feeding system, and a plunger operating at approximately 93 strokes per minute.

These features were designed to provide consistent crop feeding and small square bale production in hay and straw applications.

Depending on exact production year, serial number, options, tying configuration, and modifications, specifications can vary. Buyers should therefore verify the exact configuration of this individual machine before purchasing.

Practical Small Square Bale Production

Small square bales remain important to many agricultural markets because they can generally be handled individually without a loader or other large bale-handling equipment.

Common buyers and end users include:

• Horse farms
• Hobby farms
• Livestock owners
• Dairy operations
• Feed customers
• Farm stores
• Bedding customers
• Direct-retail hay buyers
• Small-acreage livestock operations

Depending on crop conditions and machine adjustment, a BC5070 can be used in crops such as:

• Grass hay
• Alfalfa
• Mixed forage
• Straw
• Horse hay
• Livestock feed
• Bedding material

Actual bale weight, length, density, appearance, and consistency depend on numerous factors, including crop moisture, windrow size, feeding consistency, machine settings, knotter condition, bale-chamber adjustment, and operator practices.

Wide Pickup and Rotary Feeding Design

Manufacturer information for the BC5070 platform lists a pickup width of approximately 75 inches inside the pickup and approximately 80 inches across the flare, depending on configuration.

The platform also uses New Holland's rotary feeding design to transfer crop from the pickup into the bale chamber.

Published specifications identify a feed opening of approximately 283 square inches and a plunger speed of approximately 93 strokes per minute.

For producers covering significant acreage or dealing with substantial windrows, pickup width and crop-feeding consistency can be important considerations when comparing used small square balers.

A Specialized Setup for Plain-Community Farms

For the right buyer, the independent gas-engine arrangement may be the most important reason to consider this machine.

Conventional BC5070 balers are generally designed around tractor-powered operation. This unit has instead been configured with a separate Vanguard engine power package, making it relevant to buyers specifically searching for equipment that can fit alternative farming practices.

That may include farms where tractors are not used in the conventional manner or where equipment is transported using horses while a separate stationary or implement-mounted engine supplies operating power.

Buyers considering the baler specifically because of this configuration should inspect the complete conversion or power-unit installation carefully to ensure it meets the requirements of their individual operation.

Condition and Maintenance Information

The seller describes the baler as clean, well kept, and in good working condition.

Prior seller information also describes the unit as receiving normal seasonal attention and lubrication during its use.

No maintenance invoices or detailed service records have been provided to Trustworthy Equipment LLC, however.

No specific recent major overhaul or component replacement has been documented.

Prospective buyers are encouraged to inspect important areas including:

• Knotters and tying system
• Needles and timing
• Pickup teeth and pickup mechanism
• Feeder components
• Bale chamber
• Plunger and guides
• Chains and sprockets
• Bearings
• Tires
• Engine
• Fuel system
• Engine mounting structure
• Clutch and drive components
• Guards and shields
• Power-transfer system

Operating the baler prior to purchase, when circumstances permit, is strongly recommended.

The Reason Behind the Price Reduction

The seller's motivation deserves to be explained accurately.

According to the seller, his family recently faced a serious and unexpected medical emergency involving his youngest son. His son developed a severe intestinal problem and required emergency surgery.

The family happened to already be at a hospital because another son was undergoing surgery when the younger child's emergency occurred. According to the seller, receiving medical attention immediately was extremely important.

Thankfully, his son received the emergency treatment he needed.

The financial impact, however, has placed significant pressure on the family. The seller reports that the situation has drained his available savings and created an immediate need for cash.

For that reason, the BC5070 has been reduced from its original $22,500 asking price to $18,500, and the seller remains willing to hear a reasonable offer.

This is equipment he would prefer not to sacrifice at a lower price, but taking care of his family's immediate needs comes first.

For a buyer who was already considering an engine-powered small square baler, this is an opportunity to purchase the machine while also helping a farming family through an exceptionally difficult period.

Qualified buyers who need financing may be able to explore options through independent financing providers.

Approval, down payment, interest rate, repayment period, collateral requirements, and all other financing decisions are determined entirely by the independent lender.
