Actually, I was surprised at how well the C handled it! Like anyother baler, it did cause the tractor to surge a little back and forth...
I got the baler set to go using the JD 40T (pictured in previous post with rake) and the NH pushed that tractor around really badly, I was actually a little scared that it might snap the drawbar from all of the shifting movement.
The C with the wide front on the other hand had just a little rocking... I had it in 1st gear, and at times idle was just a little too fast... However there were times when I put it in second, but that was for little blobs, not a full windrow... Out of the entire meadow picture, you can see that I basically worked it all into 2 VERY nice sized windrows, and in the aftermath of it, they were probably too big, but it did do a nice job...
I had never pulled an implement like this that hung off to the side, I am use to round balers. These take a little bit different driving style to operate!! Fun either way though! The neighbor has 15 acres on the ground and they HAVE to have it put up as rectangular bales, not rounds. They have a MF 124, and about 5 bales in the right knotter quit working, and they haven't been able to make it work right.. Soooo, I might end up running up there and helping them for a change!!

By the way, thanks for the offer on the baler, but I am in North ID...
