The L341R High-Density Baler delivers exceptional reliability, serviceability and productivity with bales weighing 30 percent more than standard density

• The L341R High-Density Baler has an additional cylinder added to each side and reinforced side hoops and a 45.7 cm (18 in.) longer bale chamber to produce bales that weigh 30 percent more
• 30 percent bale weight increase: Compared to previous standard baler models
• Bale Documentation Technology: Updates in near real-time
• John Deere is the first to offer its extended warranty to its One Series Large Square Baler (LSB) lineup

The L341R High-Density Baler leverages product components, functions, and technology, that the dealer channel and customers are familiar with. It is now delivered in a denser bale package.

Bale Documentation technology allows data to be available anytime, anywhere in the John Deere Operations Center

• Evaluate season-to-season data on perennial hay crops allowing you to make decisions based on yield, moisture, bale weight, productivity and fuel usage. This will allow producers to make decisions on when to pull a hay crop out of production and reseed if necessary.
• Work totals allow a producer to easily count bales by field per cutting, to monitor if yield has decreased between cuttings, allowing for changes to the irrigation cycle.
• Due to increased input costs, especially in alfalfa, understanding field performance via yield maps and visualizing data points allows producers to make educated decisions on reseeding.
• Provides accurate weight and moisture data to Operations Center Web and Mobile, allowing operators to monitor bale characteristics as bales are made — creating more consistent, high-quality bales.
• Accurate moisture maps both onboard and offboard allow the operator to understand where there are issues in the field with dry down.
• JDLink™ provides seamless transfer of machine and agronomic data between equipment and Operations Center, which improves monitoring and planning logistics.

The pickup is designed and built by John Deere in Ottumwa, Iowa. The John Deere MegaWide large square balers (LSBs) pickups use a low-profile pickup drum with a large-diameter roller baffle to efficiently pick crop up from the field. The performance of the roller baffle compressing the crop against the pickup tines means more crop in the bale and fewer leaves and crop left in the field.

• 2.2-m (7.2-ft) wide pickup is available on the L331R and L341R Baler
  • Available with standard or premium components
  • Tooth-to-tooth width is 1.92 m (76 in.)
  • Eight staggered tooth bars help prevent overload
  • Standard semi-pneumatic fixed gauge wheels provide smooth ground gauging over uneven terrain and protection to the pickup
• 2.5-m (8.1-ft) wide pickup is available on the L341R Baler
  • Available only with premium components
  • Tooth-to-tooth width is 2.18 m (86 in.)
  • Eight staggered tooth bars help prevent overload
  • Standard semi-pneumatic pivoting gauge wheels reduce sliding and scuffing of the tires in the field when the baler turns
• MegaWide pickup makes it easier to produce better-shaped bales and improves crop pickup in wide, windblown, or scattered windrows
• MegaTough pickup teeth provide greater strength and durability
• Chain driven for positive feeding
• Mechanical cutout clutch protection for added durability

Mega and MegaTough pickup teeth are base equipment:

• Mega pickup teeth, at the ends of the pickup, are heavy-duty for long life and improved crop retrieval
• MegaTough pickup teeth are designed to withstand the harshest baling conditions and provide long service life

Both pickup widths use a heavy, C-channel construction for the toothbar assembly. The pickup toothbars are divided into two half sections that mount to a center spider for increased strength and even crop feeding.

Semi-pneumatic gauge wheels provide smooth ground gauging over uneven terrain and protection to the pickup.

• Stiffer rubber sidewalls
• No air pressure to maintain, which means no flat tires
• Adjustable to meet pickup tooth-to-stubble height requirements

Converging wheels are available on the 2.2-m (7.2-ft) pickup to increase the overall feeding width to 2.8 m (9.2 ft):

• Rubber-mounted steel tines offer better durability
• Tines are sized to prevent dirt buildup

The pickup float springs are positioned for excellent flotation.

• Adjustable to meet varying field conditions
• Float springs only support the pickup reel
• Rotor assembly is fixed to the baler frame, eliminating additional weight on the pickup system

The premium MegaWide pickup is available for the L331 and L341 Large Square Balers. The premium pickup offers larger components to increase the durability and reliability of the pickup.

Changes to the premium MegaWide pickup include:

• Larger cams and cam bearings
• Larger spider gears

The spider gears on the premium pickup have bearings that give the reel increased durability (longer life), as well as offering a more quiet operation of the pickup. The spider gears are also larger in diameter for increased life.
