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 - The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's). I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20. At one time I had seven restored examples which were shown and used in ploughing matches. As most restorers, I have a number of war stories I can relate on a range of topics that may help other like minded and interested people. Perhaps my first p
