<p>McHale has plans to put on a massive display of kit at this year’s FTMTA Farm Machinery Show, including its Fusion 4 plus, wrappers, mowers, rakes and straw blowers with its new 10-rotor flagship trailed tedder and new F5 range of fixed chamber balers set to take centre stage. </p><p><strong>Tedders</strong></p><p>Last year, McHale first launched its ProPel tedder range, with two models initially brought to market. This included the ProPel M6-770, which is a six-rotor mounted machine with a working width of 7.7m (25’3”) and the ProPel T8-1020, which is an eight-rotor trailed unit with a working width of 10.2m (33’ 6”).</p><div att="1" class="mx-auto w-auto w-fit text-center gadvertisementheader px-2 pb-2 mb-2"><span class=" my-font-roboto-regular text-[0.625rem] my-text-color-gray-1 text-center">ADVERTISEMENT</span><!-- /144848334/new2025-articlepage-deskmob-slot2-300x250 -->

</div></div><p>Recently, McHale took the wraps off its new flagship model, the ProPel T10-1260 which is a 10-rotor trailed unit with a working width of 12.6m (41’ 3”). </p><p>Power is transferred to the rotors using a heavy-duty driveline with greaseable universal joints, which McHale says ensure direct and even power transfer in all operating conditions.</p><p>An overload clutch protects the driveline while all pivoting points are incorporated into the cast housing for long-lasting operation. All McHale tedders are fitted with 1.54m (61”) diameter rotors that are equipped with seven tine arms that all support a double hooked tine. </p><p><strong>F5 range</strong></p><p>Since its introduction in the mid-noughties, the McHale F550 and the later F5000 fixed chamber baler ranges have enjoyed a lot of success.</p><p>McHale recently presented its new F5 range of fixed chamber balers, which comprises four models. These are the F5-540 non-chopper baler, the F5-550 15 knife chopper, semi-automatic baler, the F5-560 25 knife chopper, fully automatic baler and the F5-560 Plus 25 knife chopper, fully automatic film binding baler. </p><div att="2" class="mx-auto w-auto w-fit text-center gadvertisementheader px-2 pb-2 mb-2"><span class=" my-font-roboto-regular text-[0.625rem] my-text-color-gray-1 text-center">ADVERTISEMENT</span><!-- /144848334/new2025-articlepage-deskmob-slot3-300x250 -->
