I have 2 720's that we hay with... and they have their good and bad. One thing with the 70 is you have to use the same hand to engage the pto as you need for the clutch and throttle... Next, those big 2 cylinders don't like running square balers... I have been through the transmission side of BOTH of my 720's pto's already. Finally, if it is a gas... then she is going to like her fuel, especially running a baler. Just raking hay at lower rpms, you can run 12 gallons or better of gas in an 8 hr day.... and more running the baler. A 70 diesel however will rake the same amount of time on 5 gallons of diesel.. I was born and raised on John Deere 2 cylinder tractors and I do enjoy running them, but I have to agree with these guys to a point on this one. They are pretty good for mowing and raking, not so great on the baler, and overall, I think there are better fitting tractors out there for the same money. JMHO.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
