You are going to need a bigger tractor than you mentioned to run a 605 to its potential. I used a 4020 JD on a 605 (C or D) that I had. It was a load on the 4020 with a full bale. You will need to stay in the 4x5 range of baler if you want to run it with 60 hp. IMO
Weight of the tractor is another factor. My MF 2746 A recommends 65 pto hp min. 80 pto is recomended and a min of 6000 lbs of tractor weight. A round baler can really push a tractor around on hills.
