Abstract
A baler is supported by wheels on the ground and is either self-propelled or hitched to and driven by a tractor. The baler has pickup and conveying devices for collecting and transporting the harvested goods to a pressing channel where bales are formed. The bales are tied by tying material supplied from a storage container arranged on the baler and moveable from an operating position into a servicing position allowing access to machine components of the baler covered by the storage container in the operating position. The storage container is moveable into a loading position for inserting or removing rolls of the tying material. The loading position and the servicing position are identical. In the loading and servicing position the storage container has, in comparison to the operating position, a greater spacing relative to a longitudinal center plane of the baler and a reduced spacing relative to the ground.
