Title: Fly-wheel

Abstract: An agricultural implement, such as a baler, has a fly-wheel connection that disconnects drive to the ram and other baler parts upon overload. The fly-wheel includes a first member on a driving shaft that is connected to a second member on a driven shaft through at least one shear pin. Preferably, there are a plurality of pins that can be advanced upon overload and reduction in driving speed, to automatically re-establish connection between the two members.
