I am thinking about buying a JD 430 baler. Anyone know the minimum HP needed for proper operation?

THANKS!!!

We use a NEW HOLLAND 853-(auto tie) and have used a JD 730D a lot..

thats 55hp on on a larger baler than the 430...

now I dont know if a belt baler takes more or not but would say 50would be what you needed

we tried our 245 MF one time and it died before the first bale got full.

The torque on the 730D is way up there so I wouldn't compare that to anything but a popper.

Having baled lots of 5x6 bales with a 70 hp tractor (4010) and knowing the difference between a 430 and 530, I'd say that a 50 hp tractor should do the trick on pretty flat ground.
