The 2680 Deluxe forms round bales weighing between 635 and 998 kg, bound with dual twine via 4 knotter arms. Bale shaping is carried out by 6 belts, each 165.1 mm wide, the baling chamber is 1,420 mm wide, and the finished bale is ejected through a chain mechanism.
The combination of a belt chamber and chain ejection places the 2680 Deluxe in the common category of belt-type round balers, where circulating belts shape the crop into a bale, unlike fixed-chamber balers that use rollers to press it. Dual-twine binding across 4 knotter arms keeps the bale's shape stable even at the higher end of its weight range.
When buying a used 2680 Deluxe, key checkpoints are the condition of the 6 belts for cracks and stretching, and the function of the 4 knotter arms and the twine-binding mechanism. The bale-ejection chain should also be checked for wear, along with the bearings guiding the belts, since these components are stressed with every baling cycle. The pick-up tines and the drive chain feeding the baling chamber also deserve a close look at inspection.
