He is correct on backing off the tension on the baler. The increased friction of pushing bales up the wagon chute into the wagon, amounts to increased tension and you will have real heavy bales if you don't. You will have to experiment with the tension a bit to get it right.
As for cornering; any time you turn short you can "banana" the bale between the baler chute and the wagon, PTO on or not. Make a few laps around the field (a big field you can make a few more as long as turning is gradual) to open up turning room.
Then have straight rows and split the field (skipping some rows before heading back), so you can always make a gradual turn, out of a windrow, at the ends of the rows. The short time out of the hay isn't much if you rake with the plan in mind.
We run one basket, of a different brand. With a bit of practice you can back it up to a conveyor at the barn and dump without unhooking from the baler. For hay sold in the field we dump beside or behind trailers. Sure beats walking a field and picking up bales.
