One did do a lot of stopping with one of those balers but it was a perfect match for a WD Allis with it's trip forward hand clutch, one simply pushed forward on the clutch handle till it released, then the handle would fly forward stopping the tractor, once the bale was wrapped and ejected you pulled the handle back until it snapped into place reengaging the clutch.
Dad had ours set to make 100 lb bales, we used it to roll up second cutting hay and leave it in the field, cows where turned in to the fields during fall and winter to forage on the grass but the bales were to tight for them to eat on.
Each day we'd cut ice on the ponds and chop open a dozen of those little round bales, cows would clean those up a be waiting for more to be chopped open the next day.

For beef cattle they were handy little balers, for dairy operators probably not so much.

On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
