If you could find a #3 baler in your area in good shape, it would be a nice baler to pull. It makes a full sized square, not like the Ford 520 baler. I bought it just as a toy. I planned on pulling it with a Farmall C, then, I sold the C because a guy made me a ridiculous offer on it. So, I used it a little bit with a Ford compact diesel, but since I have a 7 year old square baler, it really didn't get used much.
I also have a New Holland "horse head" baler. Err I mean, a New Holland 77 with a Wisconsin gas engine. It was used a long long time ago with a Farmall H pulling it, pulling a wagon behind, on these steep hills. It can be done. You just need lots of weights on the tractor and go slow. The NH 77 makes a large square bale. I think it's 16x18 instead of 14x18, I can't remember. I am sure someone will chime in. But, once I get it fixed up, it is also going on the sale block. I need to sell all these "toys" I have laying around so I have room for "tools" that I need to farm.
