I recently acquired a John Deere 214T baler. The baler is old but still working.
I put up 425 bales this past month but we had about 45 or 50 that did not tie on the left hand side, the right hand/inside knotter never misses.
I would like to remove the knife arm assembly to replace or sharpen the twine knives but without removing the whole knotter assembly I can't see how you could get the knife arm out?
How do you sharpen or change the twine knifes?
is there any way to remove the arm assembly without pulling the knotters apart?
I have the operators manual and all the previous owners notes. He kept the old girl in very reasonable shape.
Also did John Deere have anything like a "shop manual or service manual for balers, I am finding that I need more info then the operators manual provides?
