Available through Grande Prairie Kubota in Sexsmith. The ZR5-1200 is a self-propelled baler that combines the cab, engine, and baler into one integrated machine. No tractor required, no PTO hookup—just genuine speed and visibility gains. Purpose-built for custom operators and large-scale operations where baling performance drives seasonal efficiency. This machine justifies its investment through high utilization hours across substantial acreage.

The ZR5-1200 automates key baling steps, reducing operator workload while enabling real-time adjustments based on field conditions and crop characteristics. Enhanced comfort and maneuverability let you work longer, faster, and smarter.

Not right for smaller operations? The 605N round baler delivers proven performance behind equipment you already own.

Features & Benefits

TempSense™

TempSense stands as a safeguard, proactively giving owners and operators real-time insights about their balers to help prevent bearing failure while also promoting preventative maintenance. This innovative system utilizes a suite of wireless sensors placed near high-stress bearings within the bale chamber. These highly responsive sensors continuously monitor bearing temperatures, promptly alerting the operator to bearings that may need inspection or maintenance.

Independent suspension system

Experience a smooth, comfortable ride with the cab uniquely positioned over the suspension. A patented independent suspension system within the ZR5-1200 allows operators to better handle the uneven ground conditions that naturally come with baling.

Zero-turn capability

Minimize missed windrows to help maximize productivity. The zero-turn capabilities of the ZR5-1200 means you can spend less time correcting course and more time baling when compared to a conventional tractor-baler combination. The novelty of navigating tight turns in irregular fields never gets old.

Visibility

No need to turn around while baling — the ZR5-1200 cab was built with wide visibility in mind with two cameras to see both the baler pickup and rear view of the machine displayed on a screen in the cab.

Quarter-turn technology

Save time when picking up bales with integrated quarter-turn technology that allows bales to be placed parallel to the windrow.

Convenient maintenance

The bale chamber can be removed for quick maintenance. After the chamber is detached from the base unit, operators have convenient access to the bale chamber for routine maintenance.

Automation

By automating parts of the baling process, the ZR5-1200 helps reduce the number of manual steps to make a bale to just one step. When you choose to bale in automatic mode, the ZR5-1200 control system, paired with a hydraulic drive system, can make real-time adjustments based on field and crop conditions and can even open and close the tailgate automatically.

Speed

The ZR5-1200 zero-turn capability and innovative design, coupled with its 200-hp (149-kW) engine, helps operators get maximum benefits in their hay and forage operation. This includes speeds of up to 12 mph (19.3 km/hr) in the field based on ground conditions, and up to 34 mph (54 km/hr) when in transport mode.
