We have the 560m. They took a big step back with the net wrap door. It doesn’t seal well so if you get rain or a heavy dew the water will find its way onto the rubber roll. First bale you try to wrap, you get no wrap on the bale, but a lot of net wrap on the rubber roll. I don’t have a problem with it being plastic, but they need to seal the door better.

Great video! Thanks for showing the difference between the two.

I will take the 569 any day over the 560M. Looks like some things just cheapened out with plastic instead of metal. And slots for lifts on that front cover. I will always appreciate mechanically being able to adjust something at the machine instead of hoping a switch I pushed in the cab did the same job. They also need to upgrade the hinges on the side doors as I have had 2 break on me and that is just from the weight of the door and shaking as it works in the field. Thanks for showing the junk on the 560M as I will stick with the 569.

Nicely Done! One question I have would be the mega wide pick up, is it identical or is there differences in feeding hay into the baler? 2nd part would be a high moisture kit so their is an understanding of its workings....

The flat pto clutch cover on the 569 doesn’t collect any material. Also the 560M has the slotted top piece... to reduce drag Hahaha come on, it’s a hay baler wind drag is the least of your worries. So they got rid of the composite handles on the hyd. Cover to reduce fading... but added a massive plastic cover on the back? Gimme a break. The plastic is just cheaper, and frankly looks cheap too. I’m glad I’ve got a ‘17 569 over a newer 560m. Not a fan of the doors or the new “latching system” aka door props which the door props on the 569 do not require you to open the little spring latch with your hand to close the doors you just push the doors close and they unlatch.

Man, you did a fantastic video, thank you.

Not trying to be a negative person bout the composite rear door , but am curious if it will take the impact of backing into a bale? I was tired one evening and made this mistake. Metal door no damage at all . I’m wondering if the composite would protect the net wrap system as well?

the holes in the top cover are just cosmetic to let in rain. The side door thickness bend is a good one, the holes not so much.

I have a question i bought a 2019 jhon 450e roller it does not have bale shape on monitor i been told i can get a shape sensor kit like on the M series will my monitor work

Not sure if y’all respond still but I’ve been looking for my serial number on my 560M and am not able to find it. By chance do you know where it is at

i appreciate the video. i wish deere would drastically alter their basic design. i mean its been pretty much the same since the 1980's. more electric stuff and the addition of a hay chewing secondary lift megawide pickup. i love green stuff but i had to go with a yellow wide pickup baler which is vastly superior to anything deere has to offer. i will buy a deere baler again some day when they come up with a better design. thanks for the video.

Is there any difference between the John Deere bearer for the European market and the US market

great vid :) do u have any vids on the 450m baler? the 560m would be 2 big 4 us..

Oh boy he just mentioned the aerodynamics of the round baler

Some reason my 569 doesn’t pick up the hay very well we put 20 brand new teeth in it raised the pickup all way down do you have any advice

I had a 569 burn up. Main reason I went back with Vermeer 605n over 560 is that cheap looking net wrap cover on back. Can’t stand it!

Both still have the cheap springy gage wheels. Something JD needs to fix back to an older model.

I just want it to bale hay trouble free. ❤😊

How often would you change net brake

Only good thing about the 560M is the grease points. Makes crappy bales. 568 hands down the best

Personally, it just looks like they've streamlined production and reduced manufacturing costs.

Price

I can tell you the differences because I build them. And I will be honest.

The slots on top are to watch the belts pfft drag that is not the reason but for the money a 569 is way better deal

Slip clutches are different

Yes sir! Wind drag ih s a problem when baling! Need more aerodynamic shape! Last time i baled i almost hit 6mph!!!! Whhheeeeeeewwwww!!!!! And please yes use more cheap ass plastic in them and please charge 900 % more for them.

now compare the John Deere baler to a vermeer

560M obvious cost reductions.

Not worth 2X the money though.

I don’t like that cheap plastic on the back. That’s crap. SMV is too high. Why move it up top? Stupid.

They are both junk buy junk fix junk got junk
