I finally got a few pics of our baler while it was still hooked up and out of the shed. We run a Massey 285 on a Massey #12 baler (later model) and stack 6 high on the wagons behind it. It may be too big fir some guys, but you can also pull 2 loads in tandem behind the baler on the road and be able to get up & going, and to safely stop as well. Our 165 has plenty of power to run the baler, but it struggles to get a load of hay going on the road sometimes. Still a great tractor, but the 285 is our Baling tractor...    
Get some good bales outta this baler too. Square, tight, and it will take thin or thick hay and give you a uniform bale. The 2nd crop we had double raked I had to slow down to 2nd low, MP high to keep from plugging up. It still took it better than I thought. More thasn once I thought for sure it was gonna break a shear bolt but it kept plugging along, even though the pick-up couldn't jam anymore hay in it until I would stop a second for it to chew... Still plenty fast for one guy on the wagon though. Donovan from Wisconsin

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
