Will be pressing the Farmall 756 into hay duty this year along with the rest of the fleet - for some purpose or another. This tractor is a narrow front machine. This tractor, I'd imagine weighs a bit more on the front wheels than an M or H.
What are your thoughts about using a narrow front tractor for haying? I'm concerned about mashing the hay into the ground to some extent - maybe it's not such a big deal?
May leave this tractor a narrow front, but more leaning to a wide front conversation. Maybe it's not really necessary in hay? I've learned so far with this tractor, the narrow front makes for a nimble machine.
But for haying, is a narrow front OK? The goal is top quality square bales for horses.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
Bill
