I would pull the old hay out and roll it over by hand a few times to make sure everything is clear before hooking it up to a PTO - parts get broke real fast that way. Watch a couple You Tube videos on repairs and operation and you'll gain an understanding of how everything is supposed to work. And you'll need the manual if one wasn't included. The 315 is a really good baler with a fairly high capacity especially compared to the 14T and others you were looking at. The wider pickup makes operation a lot easier too. The Ford will pull it no problem. It doesn't appear to have a hitch so you won't be pulling wagons behind it. It basically looks like a newer version of my 276 with a bigger twine box. I pull mine with a Farmall 350 (about 38hp) or a Allis D17 (about 60hp) - neither has any issue handling it - you'll slug it and have the PTO clutch slipping before you run out of power.
Those balers were built to make several thousand bales a year and came onto the scene just as big round balers started taking over the market. Good chance you have a low use model. Most of the balers that were produced in the mid 1970s and earlier saw a lot of hard use and were basically worn out by the time the big round balers took over.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
