You have to run the baler at near top rpm so the flywheel has enuf kinetic energy to push thru any big chunks (wads?) of hay without breaking the shear pin in the pto shaft. My wife"s grandfather used to bale with his H at about 1/3 throttle (didn"t want to wear out the tractor motor, I guess), he would hit a big bunch of hay in the windrow and with the fly wheel spinning so slow the tractor"s governor would kick in and the shear pin would break; he spent a lot of time on his back putting in new pins. I talked him into letting me on that H, I reved it up and his eyes got big for fear over his baler, but we never broke a pin after that. However, I suspect when I wasn"t around when he baled again, he went back to 1/3 throttle and laying on his back a lot. LA in WI
