IHFan: If it takes 1 minute per bale to wrap and dump, that is 40 minutes of the hour used up. You do the math, leaves 20 minutes for actual baling. I've never been able to take 40 minutes out of an hour and still have an hour left. Gosh, the work I could have done with your math.
By the way any diesel tractor can be set to belch black smoke, doesn't make them efficient. I baled 2,000Lb. 5x6 bales with my IH 241, wasn't much difference in production between 656 and 1066. Where the 1066 had power the 656 had better manuverability. 1066 just burnt 3 times as much fuel doing same job. As far as what your pulling on hills, we're talking 5,000 lbs. with a full bale. I could pull that with my 140 and make 4 mph.
