It shows the hookup, field operation at 9 km/h using the RPM lock button, and a finished bale, concluding the combo works fine on flat ground for someone starting out.
Posted by the Hucko Equipment channel, an on-location field test rather than a dealership sales pitch.
Yes, the test shows it works fine on flat ground, producing a good bale, even though the baler normally recommends at least 100 engine horsepower and the M7060 only has 63 PTO hp.
It locks the RPM at about 2200 to 2300, keeping the PTO at 540, so the tractor maintains speed automatically without the operator shifting or adjusting throttle on rough terrain.
In this video, it took a couple of guys about 45 minutes to an hour to hook the BB5160 baler up to the Kubota M7060 with no issues.
