You could pull a trailer with 100 bales, OR a small square baler with a 240U, but not both. I have a 240U and for baling, I would consider a live pto to be important, or an engine on the baler. As a kid I pulled an engine driven baler without a hayrack with a C on fairly level ground and it did okay, but we used the JD A or 60 when we pulled a hayrack and loaded behind the baler. I wouldn't have wanted much less. The 240 series is a slightly "grown up" C- SC-200-230 series, with the added utility version.
As for the 7' mower, I'm not familiar with the power required for a rotary disc mower, but a 7' sickle bar is an easy task for that HP, and a 7' "bush hog" type is too much.
They do not have the best of 3 point systems compared to more modern types, but are servicable.
