[QUOTE="lavacarancher, post: 638311, member: 9198"] You're gonna need at least 70 PTO HP, some will say 90 HP. Also your terrain will influence that somewhat. Your ground speed depends a lot on how good (or bad) your hay is and how much hay you've put into your wind rows. You can choke that baler, any baler, so adjust your ground speed so the you keep the pickup reel fully engaged but not enough to choke it. I know this probably isn't what you're looking for in an answer but it really depends. It won't take you long to figure out your ground speed and I assure you that once you've choked it and you have to spend the next hour and a half digging the hay out you'll catch on quick. :D Good luck [/QUOTE]
