Bale Processors
CFR960 Bale Pro®
Features common to all Bale Pros®
- Feed Chopper™
- Metered Grain Insertion (MGI™)
- Large Diameter Flail Drum
- Twine Cutting
- Extremely Durable Construction
- Hydraulic Door
- Adjustable Axles and Axle Twine Guard
- Hi-flotation Tires
- Standard Adjustable Forks
The NEW Square/Round Processor
Ideal for feeding and bedding - the CFR 960 Bale Pro® offers all of the proven design features found on the Highline Bale Pro® series but with the added real flexibility to process square or round bales (simply, with the turn of a dial).
The unique engineering of the CFR 960 Bale Pro® allows you to efficiently process square or round bales - the choice is up to you! This is useful when you have multiple feed suppliers using different bale types.
Maximize your Loading Efficiency
- When it comes to loading efficiency, bale orientation matters.
Extreme Lifting Power
- While some may call the power behind the Highline Vertical Bale Lift design excessive, we call it extremely smart. With by far the highest breakout force in the industry, the Highline Vertical Lift design allows you to release even the most stubbornly frozen bales from the ground with ease. Also, because the bale is lifted straight up off of the ground, the scrubbing action against the bale stack is minimized, reducing bale damage and waste.
- Efficient Processing of Square Bales
- One of the challenges of processing square bales is maintaining both a high loading AND high processing efficiency (the competition fails to deliver on either one OR the other). This is because whenever the orientation of the bale isn’t optimally placed for either loading (large face aligned with tractor) or processing (length aligned with flail), efficiency is compromised. For optimal processing, the Highline Design Team addressed this issue by developing a system that turns the square bale so that it rests lengthwise in the tub (in alignment with the flail).
- Easily Slice Through Twine with the CleanCut™ Twine Release System
- Unique to the CFR 960 Bale Pro® is the CleanCut™ Twine Release System. The CleanCut™ Twine Release System uses the weight of the square bale to effectively snap the twine prior to processing.
CFR1251 Bale Pro ®
Effectively Mix Feed Grades
Highline is pleased to introduce the CFR1251 Bale Pro®. When good bales are scarce or efficiency is critical, the CFR1251 provides the flexibility to blend two bales into a healthy ration.
When mixing bales, the ability to meter in grain, chop hay and bed down cattle with a single machine is still part of the fundamentals of a Highline Bale Pro®.
The CFR1251 Bale Pro® , a convenient alternate to a TMR - one operator, one machine and one tractor while eliminating the need for pre-processing.
The 1251 is a dual-chamber bale processor which offers many of the same benefits as a TMR Mixer. The 1251 provides the flexibility to process two bales at once, blending different types of forage into a healthy ration. With winter feed costs accounting for as much as 50% of total production costs, managing this variable can make or break the profitability of a cow calf operation.
The ability to utilize lower quality forage, along with high quality forage maximizes the efficiency of a winter feeding program and is critical in extending feed supplies on years when good hay is in short supply. When equipped with the optional Grain Tank with MGI™ and Feed Chopper™, the CFR1251 really is an all-purpose machine that rivals a TMR in producing a mixed forage / grain ration. And, it does this with less operational costs and lower capital investment. The 1251 is also an excellent machine for bedding and that’s something a TMR can’t do. In many cattle operations, the CFR1251 may be a wiser investment than a TMR mixer.
- CFR Capability - Expand your 1251 Bale Pro® into a CFR by adding the Grain Tank with MGI™
- Retractable front bale loading conveyor allows the bale to gently shift to the front
- Cameras Standard
- Hydraulically Controlled Discharge Door
- Adjustable Forks - easily adjust your fork width based on your requirements up to 6' (1.8 m)
- Independent aggression controls allows for blending of 2 forages at different rates.
- The Slat & Chain Processing Chamber
- Safety Chain Standard
- Transport Lights Standard
- Expand your CFR with these options
- The CFR 1251 maximizes your blended input ability; mixing the perfect balance of bales of varying quality with metered whole grain product; the result is optimized feed at a lower purchase point. Below are examples of how the CFR 1251 can positively affect your bottom line.
CFR650 Bale Pro®
The Leader in the Industry
The CFR650 unrolls and processes round bales with PTO-powered flails. This process blows away mold, dust and mildew.
- Vertical Bale lift has the highest breakout force to easily load frozen bales. Vertical lift also reduces “scrubbing” of the bale in the row.
- Standard adjustable forks allow you to lift bales from the smallest silage bales up to bales of 6 feet (1.8 m) from the row and load them into the processor.
- Solid, continuous tube main frame to handle the loads.
- Simple, robust design gives the fastest processing of feed and bedding.
- Standard adjustable axles for stability withaxle twine guard.
- Standard hydraulic door
- 16.5L X 16.1 Flotation tires
- Removing bale twine or netwrap is made easy with the patented TwineCutter.
- The Highline Feed Chopper™ is a secondary processing option that allows you to produce a shorter cut length. The surface area of feed is increased for the cow's rumen to digest.
- The Grain Tank with MGI™ is a meter-based system similar to that which is presently used on Bourgault air seeders for accurate seeding.
CFR650 TOP GUN®
So much more than a bale processor
The Highline TOP GUN® is a rugged highly effective implement for industrial and agricultural covering, feeding and bedding applications.
Feed and Bed the Smart Way, Never Open a Gate Again.
How many times has an open gate ended with chasing cattle back into the pen? Frustration, lost time and potentially dangerous situations are all something that producers want to avoid, and now can with the Highline TOP GUN®. With the 11' high nozzle, the TOP GUN® can easily reach over the top of bunks and fences to blow straw into pens to bed cattle or use the optional hydraulic discharge door to feed into bunks.
The TOP GUN® makes feeding and bedding a quick and comfortable process for the cattle as well as yourself.
Other Commercial and Industrial Applications.
The TOP GUN® is a valuable tool for a variety of applications such as: odor control for manure storage areas and landfills, temporary erosion control for sloped areas like newly seeded highway ditches, as well as soil remediation after forest fires and land reclamation in the oil and gas and mining industries. With the ability to shred and blow straw from large round bales, the TOP GUN® has far greater capacity than many of the commercial straw blowers on the market today.
(The CFR650 and CFR651 can also be used for industrial applications.)
- Vertical Bale lift has the highest breakout force to easily remove frozen bales. Vertical lift also reduces “scrubbing” of the bale in the row. Standard adjustable forks allow you to lift bales from the smallest silage bales up to bales of 6 feet (1.8 m) from the row and load them into the processor.

Bale Movers
BM1400 Bale Mover
Highline makes picking bales a breeze!
Highline’s line-up of bale movers makes round bale handling a breeze. With the Bale Mover 1400, you get fast and efficient handling with non-stop picking and transporting. Unloading can be done without leaving the cab and with Highline’s ingenuity built into every bale mover, you can expect faster bale hauling with only one tractor and operator.
The Model 1400 turns big moving jobs into a pleasure by hauling 14 bales in a double row of seven bales. It will load from either side and has the power to pick up bales on the fly. The mower was designed and tested for any conditions - winter or summer.
Standard features will keep you moving.
Chain Rails
Polished chain rails are easily adjusted to match different bale sizes. Chain rails are sloped and factory ground to conform to the slope of round bales, eliminating the needs for cleats and reducing broken strings.
A hydraulic motor controls the chains and eliminates gearboxes, bearings and shafts. (Either row of chains can be operated independently on the Bale Mover 1400 allowing you to fill one side before filling the other or fill randomly and out of sequence on either side.)
Unload Without Ever Leaving The Tractor
Back up the Highline Bale Mover where you want the bales, tilt the bed, engage the conveyor chains and drive slowly forward. Bales are stored in a long, straight row to minimize weathering damage.
All Bale Mover Models have a standard ¼ turn bale fork to automatically turn bales for non-stop loading from virtually any angle.
- In-cab electric over hydraulic controls give full hydraulic control with only two hydraulic outlets on your tractor
- Undercarriage that walks both side to side and front to back
- As the quarter turn lift arm begins to lift the bale, the forward motion slides the bale precisely into position for accurate placement on main bed.
- Load soft or wet bales with ease.
- Bale rows are designed to give the operator good visibility behind the bale mover. Transport lights and a transport safety chain are standard.
- From the cab of the tractor, the deck is lifted hydraulically. The bale chains transfer the bales onto the ground without ripping twine or damaging the bales.The tail of the Bale Mover is designed to skid over the ground during the unloading process without damage.
- Fiber wound bushings on chrome shafts.

Rock Removal
NT44 Rock Picker
NT60 Rock Picker
NT78 Rock Picker
Just HOOK UP & GO
Durable Box Frame Construction
Highline is the only rock picker with a box frame construction. The front frame is built high to let rocks in, yet ensure the structure is strong enough to withstand the most difficult conditions.
Hi-Lift Design
The Hi-Lift design feature allows operators to get rocks out of the way or off the field. The Hi-Lift minimizes wasted space from low flat rock piles by allowing taller more compact piles to be made, or, rocks can be transferred directly to a truck for removal. For fast and convenient rock removal, Highline rock pickers (NT44, NT60 and NT78) have a standard dumping height of 84".
Mowers
RCHTM Hydro
ReaCH into more places with your RCH™ Hydro!
The RCH™ Hydro mower from Highline reduces maintenance requirements resulting in less downtime. Proven hydraulic motors eliminate clutches from seizing up and placing huge shock loads onto PTOs, blade pans and decks. Also, due to the hydraulic circuit, rocks or debris cannot transfer impact onto the drive train; the hydraulic drive softens every hit the blades see. Checking oil in the gearboxes is eliminated and greasing of a single PTO shaft is all it takes to be up and running drastically reducing service time.
Save Time and Increase Productivity
Greasing and maintenance have always been time consuming and cumbersome tasks. Traditional mechanically-driven ditch mowers typically have 16 grease points. Care and greasing on these units can take from 30 minutes up to an hour of preparation time every day! With the RCH™ Hydro Mower greasing and maintenance takes approximately 5 minutes.
In a mowing season of 100 days this translates into an extra 100 miles of mowing!
- The RCH™ Hydro Mower is a practical design with many convenience features.
- The heart of a Highline mower is the Radial Countouring Hitch (RCH™)
- Independent Wing Lift
- The Optional Joystick is Simply More Intuitive!
- Large, Smooth Under Deck allows for Continuous Volume Shredding of Mulch
- The Hydraulic Drive Advantage
- Maneuverability
- High Capacity Cooling Unit: The high capacity, 20 hp cooling unit efficiently cools the oil. Reversible electric cooling fan keeps the radiator clean by blowing out debris.
- Easily view oil levels with oil gauge.
- The Hitch’s Low Pull Point has less downward force eliminating any upending in muddy conditions.
- Hose Cradle: The simple design of the hose cradle allows for flexibility when attaching hoses to tractor. Also, since the hoses are not tightly secured, the hoses can move when turning. The hose cradle keeps the hoses neatly in place.
- Replaceable Caster Shaft and Spindles: Accidents happen! Highline caster shafts are designed to be replaced simply and easily. Instead of having to replace the entire caster wheel assembly, individual component shaft parts are available and can be easily changed out.
- The Chrome Shaft and Fibre Bushings mean no greasing for less maintenance.
- 2:1 Speed Increaser: The RCH™ mower is equipped with a 2:1 Speed Increaser. This is valuable as it allows for higher speeds with a more compact pump. Competitors' hydraulic pump designs are much larger and attach directly to the tractor making initial setup awkward.
- A low, 600 lb of weight on the jack
- Large Wings allow for greater ditch contour-ability compared to competitors.
- Replaceable Skid Plates are made from durable abrasion resistant steel. Skid Plates can be installed on either side of the machine, which is an advantage as it tends to have greater wear on the outside than the inside.
- The Large Tool Kit conveniently stores extra blades and tools for easy access when maintenance is required.
- Optional - experience a smoother ride and better contouring with the optional front to back walking wing axle.
