A Super M is just a good size for a NH68. Like others have said, you need to be able to engage the clutch slowly to get the baler moving. I never square bale with a live PTO, so when you get the baler plugged you should be able to ease the plunger into the bale to cut the plug over several tries without busting a shear pin.

You'll be able to bale larger windrows with the M.
You won't wear out the NH68. You'll just have to replace wear parts and keep the knives sharp. The biggest load on a square baler is a combination of dull knives and a loose plunger.
