You could pull a trailer with 100 bales, OR a small square baler with a 240U, but not both. I have a 240U and for baling, I would consider a live pto to be important, or an engine on the baler. As a kid I pulled an engine driven baler without a hayrack with a C on fairly level ground and it did okay, but we used the JD A or 60 when we pulled a hayrack and loaded behind the baler.
