Vermeer 604L Baler Issue

Looking For Help.

I have a 604L that has only 1800 bales through it. Bought it a couple years ago and was working fine until last fall. Seems that it wants to make egg shaped bales a lot of the time. I have my air pressure set at #3 (green) and my hydraulic pressure at #3 (green) also. Seems like the egg shaping starts to happen when the transition from the air to the hydralic takes over and also if I get to the end of the windrow or run out of hay the bale will egg bale and start bouncing in the baler to a point where I just wrap it and kick it out.

Been reading and reading, but finding no solutions.

Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions would be so greatly appreciated.

Thanks

welcome to the forum.
By egg-shape, do you mean larger in the middle than the ends, or 'out of round'?
I'm a LONG way from being a mechanic, but sounds like it might be a 'feeding' issue?

Sorry, not idea. I have noticed some of the bales my JD 530 rolled looked like the center was 'out of round'... the center was closer to one side than the other. I don't remember the baler jumping around tho.
Good luck with it, & please let us know what ya find out.
