Patrick,
No, unfortunately, it will not work. If you look at a Super MTA or a Super W6TA, they are actually longer than their letter series counterparts. This is because there is an additional transmission housing in between the normal transmission and the bell-housing. The way the IPTO gets its power on these tractors is by using two hollow shafts and running the IPTO shafting through the inside of the normal transmission shafts. The IPTO shaft is splined directly into the flywheel and runs through the inside of the transmission input shaft that is controlled by the clutch. It then passes through a gear reduction and another shaft carries the power to the IPTO unit on the back of the tractor though the hollow lower transmission shaft. Because the gear reduction takes place in that additional housing, you would need it to make it work, along with the special hollow shafts.
I have done some baling with a W6 and an M and I truthfully believe that it isn"t that big of a deal. Baling has existed LONG before IPTO was around, and people survived. IPTO is more of a convenience than a necessity. The main things to remember are: before stopping the tractor, let the baler head empty out. if the hay is thick, move some of the hay in front of the head to the next row over, or back up a few feet to get some running room for the baler to get up to speed. If it starts to plug up, pull the shifter out of gear without clutching. The second you hit the clutch, it WILL be plugged.
The M and W6 are great baler tractors. It just takes some practice, finesse, and re-training from habits picked up with IPTO.
