Allan,

No reason why the baler won't handle it if you drive slow enough. You will have to stop more often to wrap and eject bale.

However, consider whether or not you will save any total time. If you have had the 12 foot Haybine condition and put the hay in a swath you don't have to spend time raking it again. That time raking 2 windrows together has to be added to the baling time. Also consider extra fuel used. Now if the hay is spread out to dry, you are going to have raking time in anyway, so the only arguement is whether or not you save enough time cutting with the bigger swather.

Agree with the other posts about having an extra engine to keep up in a self propelled cutter. Anyway, you have all those wide open spaces there, so the extra maneuverability of a self propelled shouldn't be so important.
