Subject: RE: Round baler hp?


The 46 was the revision/replacement for the 44s. They called for a minimum of 55 on the PTO. We ran ours with a Ford 5610 for a long time. That was 62 HP. I wouldn't want less. If you got a full heavy wet bale that would basically kill the 5610.... They work much better with about 75 HP.
It will bale just about anything but does a poor job in short straw.

You can tie off a half bale at the end of a field but you often have to toss the string into the machine. They don't tie well with much less than good full bale... I don't quite understand why you'd want to make less than a full bale either.
