Can't say for sure I have never tried that with my 850 but I do bale some ruff stuff with it. I have a lot of crown vech and that is a night mare to bale and the old 850 just does it very good with only a clog once in a while if the rows are to big. Had this for about 5 years now and have only had to replace one part which was an idler sprocket and broke a shear bolt one but other then keeping it oiled it has done just great. When I got it I was told my Oliver 77 would pull it but found out fast ya it would but ever thing had to be just right or all I got was a 3 or 4 foot bale. Then I tried a Farmall 450 and got the same thing. Sold the 450 and picked up an Oliver Super 88 and it just plays with the baler. The 850 is I go to slow like to make a bale that I can't pick up with my ford 801 with loader, and thats with fluid in the tires and a back blade on with 6-85lbs suit case weights on the blade. And even when I started useing 2 or 3rd gear they are still around 2000lbs.
