You are going to like that 706. I bale hay in the summer and use mine when I need to round bale some. Other wise I use my 400 for square baling.
Fuel usage is the only issue I have with it. Other wise you get all the modern features you want at a cheap price for the HP.

uses the C263 gas engine same as the 560 just more rpm's. One thing try to use 93 octain gas as the C263 likes to burn valves. The guy that said 1000 hrs till rebuild is full of it.
If you treat her right she will treat you right for 2500 to 3000 hrs.
After that you can repower for a song. Almost any engine from a 460 to a 301 combine engine will fit. $300 to $600
Or rebuild it your self. for about $1300 I redid mine complete. Pistons, rings, all new bearings, reground the crank and got the head rebuilt.
