The dealer that told you that is full of it. I have a JD 566 5x6 round baler.

I have a 6105 white and an 1850 oliver. Both tractors handle it just fine. I bought my baler used and gave less than half of what a new one cost! For years we ran an old case baler and than an owtanna roller baler. I know that it cost alittle more money but it will bale anything i put infront of it!
