My New Holland baler (313) manual says to Always mow, rake and bale in the same direction. Sickle bar mower require clockwise mowing. Baler also clockwise baling at least for old square baler.
Since the New Holland 256 rake discharges to the left relative to the tractor seat, I always would rake counterclockwise to keep the hay from being pushed out towards the fence line on first round. Seems that make baling that outer row with the rake going clockwise would cause problems with picking the hay into the baler.
What to you do? Which direction do you rake?
