You must be looking at an 860 - altho a 'later model' would maybe be a 861? I'd sure want to know before purchasing.......

I have a 960, which is a row crop version of what you are looking at. It pulled my 1209 moco, altho the pto got weak & it doesn't now, getting a new clutch would make it handle it fine.

I also move round bales at times with it. I use a fork-lift type 3-point bale mover. You could go for the spear-type also. It can make the front end _very_ light, you would want some weight on your front end. Also will require the tractor to be in good shape with a good hyd pump & all. You would be best to remember to drive slowly, that will be a lot of weight on your rear axle, you don't want to drop in a gopher hole at speed.

But, a good shape 800 series should handle the tasks for small acreage.
