OK, let's do a little lesson in physics. Kinetic energy equals 1/2*m*v^2. Velocity is squared therefore small changes in velocity results in large changes in energy. Flywheels are energy storying entities and are used on a baler to reduce the shock load on the drive train during compression of a slice.
So, knowing that it will take x amount of energy to compress a slice of hay, this energy will need to come from somewhere. If the amount of energy needed to compress the slice is dramatically more than what is stored in the flywheel, a greater percentage of the impact load is passed to the tractor. Reducing the speed of the baler will reduce the available energy by a squared factor.
So, take your pick, run your baler at 540 and let the flywheel do what it is supposed to, or let your tractor take the abuse. Unless the manual says otherwise, run it at 540.

Today's Featured Article - Ford Part Number Trivia - by Forum Participants. "Replaced by" means the part was superseded. All of my part books date back to 1964 and New Holland have changed some part numbers. They usually put the old Ford part number on the package. I was suppressed when I looked up the part number of the auxiliary drive shaft because for some reason the part number went through a radical change and it lost its "Basic Part Number". Ford part numbers follow the following rules. Most part numbers are in three parts. The middle part is called the
