If you are not on hills and have enough weight on the tractor it will probably work alright but I wouldn't transport it on the road with a light tractor, especially full of beans. We use a neighbor's 15' 750 and this year I hooked it to my Case 600. It handled it fine on the level. On the one hillside strip it wanted to push you around while turning for some point rows. Last year we did the last two fields using our Case 400. The hydraulics were a little slow on these old tractors though. The guys who own the drill use their 2wd 7720 JD w/duals. the 7720 has much more hp than needed but the duals and the extra weight really help on the hillsides. Another neighbor that uses the drill puts his 8520 JD on it, now that is just overkill.
The 600 weighs a little under 10k lbs @ about 80hp another ton on the tractor wouldn't hurt. The 400 is under 60hp and about the same weight.
