Abstract
A baler implement includes a gear assembly having an input shaft coupled to a power input, and an output shaft coupled to a flywheel. The gear assembly includes a first input gear coupled to the input shaft and a first output gear coupled to the output shaft to define a first gear ratio, and a second input gear coupled to the input shaft and a second output gear coupled to the output shaft to define a second gear ratio. A first torque control device interconnects the input shaft and one of the first input gear and the second input gear. A second torque control device interconnects the output shaft and one of the first output gear and the second output gear. One of the first torque control device and the second torque control device is controllable to switch between the first gear ratio and the second gear ratio.
