I've pulled a 5 ft binder behind a Cub in 2nd gear. Also a 7 " behind 130 in 2nd gear. I've forgotten the speeds, however I think 130 is faster than an H in 2nd, and quite a bit faster in 3rd. I remember 3rd in the 130 would shake the old binder quite badly, but 2nd was just a bit slower than necessary. You'll probably be able to throttle back with the H in 3, if you find it too fast, and still have lots of power. We lost too much power throttling back 130 in 3rd. I see by the manual 130 speeds on 9.5x24 tires are 3.7 in 2nd and 4.8 in 3rd. Our 130 probably would have been close to 10% faster on 12.4x24 tires. It will not help to slow down much with the ground drive binder. If you drive too slow in heavy going the drive wheel will stop turning and drag. Been there and done that. Our neighbor had a pto drive on his 8' binder. In real heavy going he could drop to 1st gear and do beautful work. Even on the 7', I'd look around for a pto driveline. They are actually quite simple, you could probably build one quite easily.

We needed a TRACTOR; not a riding mower or tractor wannabe, but a real TRACTOR. The answer to our needs materialized in the form of a '44 Farmall A, complete with cultivators, discs, single plow, a 5ft.Woods belly mower and one, mounted spare 9.00x24 rear wheel.
