The 8N Ford has been mentioned, a very popular tractor, lots of them were sold and used. They did not have live PTO, when the clutch was depressed, the PTO stopped. If the PTO baler encountered a large accumulation of hay at one place, the operator had to stop, shift to neutral, release the clutch to run the PTO, depress the clutch, shift into gear, move forward maybe 3 feet, stop, shift to neutral, etc. With the baler having it's own engine, the operator simply had to use the clutch to move the tractor as needed- no shifting. Additionally, in hilly areas, simply towing the baler uphill might be about all the tractor could do anyway.
