327 JD small square baler

Check twine tension at twine box . Older J D balers had individual adjustments and being too loose on one side can cause what you are dealing with . Good luck
 
If nothing else has changed.... I'd look at the hay dogs and springs first. I find my 327 to be very forgiving of windrow variations. If nothing seems amiss, then I would look at the packer fork.

Think I have figured out !! Trying to get 2nd off and cut an acre of 1st crop that was under water in June. Baled 1st and bales were square......2nd is much finer hay....not much for stems...set pusher fingers in lowest hole to push hay farther into chamber and now 2nd is square also. Checked out hay dogs also.....no broken springs and working as should.

Awww come on admit it, you are just looking for a way to tell us all that you are baling second cut when most of us are not doing well at all on first.
 
Which side of the bale is longer (getting more hay), the pickup side or the flywheel side?
 
We just baled some feathery, short and soft second cut Timothy and slowed the rpms to amout 75 strokes per minute, picked-up the ground speed a bit to get a full pick-up and charge into the bale chamber. Also really cranked the tension down and our side doors (JD348) full in to get the bales to pack out. I say slowed as the 348 is a 93 stroke baler. Your 327, if I recall correctly, is an 80 stroke per minute baler, so you're close.

327 is IMHO a fine baler.

Good luck,
Bill
