I dont know what experience you have with square balers, but take a look and be sure that the stop block that protects the needles is jumping into the chamber in front of the plunger, when the needles enter the chamber to feed the twine to the knotter. Many sets of needles get broken off because this stop block isnt working, and if the brake on the knotter slips and lets go if the needles at the wrong time, the plunger will snap them off. Your tractor will probably need to rev at right around 3/4 throttle to give you the 540 pto speed. You dont need to concern your self about making your baler make the plunger make a certain number of strokes per minute. Your baler is designed to be operated at 540 pto revolutions. Once the pto is running at 540 , the gear box on the baler will determine how many strokes per minute the plunger will make. Most older balers only did right around 60 stokes. I remember new high capacity balers doing 90 strokes, and they were just hoping, and most shook them selves into the scrap yard early.
