Any thoughts on the pro's and con's of a center pivot hydraulic motor driven 12' haybine vs a side pull pto shaft driven 12' haybine? I have only ever used a New Holland side pull 9' shaft driven machine. It was very trouble free and did a very nice job for us. I know a discbine would be better but price is the main issue at the moment. From what I have gathered the center pivot is very handy for very large fields but the side pull seems to pull easier? Tractors doing the work will be either a 4020 or my 5083E. Going to look at the side pull tonight.
